@DavidSandow1 @Martin_Opp @DavidSandow1 as alternative to RWS, have a look at Australian Wool Sustainability Scheme administered by @WoolExchange. IMO much better option.

@mjgoodenco @agronomistag Agree that these are essential elements of farm business management. Have seen them applied in an increasing number of businesses, not just those that have adopted regenerative ag.

@peter3DWagga @GusWhyte That is true. Not withstanding this, used in the right way, GMs are a handy tool that are often overlooked. Tendency is to make the case for enterprise analysis that is so complicated and full of assumptions that in the end nothing is done. Simple figures are better than none

@rickchayes @ianmaslin1 @lucernebreeder Thanks @rickchayes. If virus, do they recover or is it likely they die somewhere down the track, would be interesting to know.

@mrchriswarrick @theGRDC @1800weevil @conwayalex97 Thank you for sharing @mrchriswarrick. Would be interesting to know what end users think of grain where storage has been used to lift falling numbers. Fall in numbers OK, but quality for milling not OK?

@PhilWhitp4 @todd_venning Agree that understanding your feed costs is critical. However, this is X, I am sharing some basic numbers, this is not specific to situation of others. Few businesses have numbers to support decision making. My mission is to make things doable. Somthing is better than nothing.
