@BindiIsbister @cosfarming @HoolyMcg @brodenholland @agrotoppo @t_edwards111 Is it being trialed on different soil types also? I see a big difference in efficacy of pre ems and slow growth rates on varying soil types/ph levels etc etc.

@Nel_farms I’m hoping this bit of bent up tin directs the shit away. Haven’t played in the mud to see if it works yet.

@cropmad @MattMcDonald013 Yes agree. I scratched my head for a few weeks before I came to the conclusion of what had occurred. Was very vigilant with it this year checking With neighbours and picking wind conditions pre sowing in dry conditions. Makes me question how often these products could do this.

@cropmad @MattMcDonald013 While I totally agree with your statement boom spray drift isn’t always to blame. I personally applied OW pre wheat last season on a north wind direction. Then incorporated the following day on a southerly in dry condition. The dust drifted across and bleached my lentils.

@lance123wise Yep. Had issues with all 4 on an 8R. Built for a race track only I think.

@farmersgrowit Have never ever had any success going past 33m. We set ours on 32 and don’t see tiger stripes that way. Could be the poor quality urea we are dealt here but that’s what we have found. Had one for over 10years and tried most tricks.

@CropDoctor54 @YPAGAgronomy @FMCANZ @WeedSmartAU @KearsleyGiles @Headpat10 @jamescant18 The picture above is about all I’ve seen it do with 1.25lt Hasn’t killed the bigger ones. Haven’t looked to see if it’s killed younger ones though.

@Mayzeeman We run farm scan 1020. Very simple to use. Had them on my old bar then went to in-line ones which were terrible. Back to farm scan on new bar again. Will pick cano up at 1.5kg. I run on seed and fert heads. I’ll steer if guidance drops out but hate sowing without head sensors

@James_Stacey_ Spread Chook shit on a deep sand/ blow hole area last year and put bednar through at 350-400mm. It( given the water) will go off. Huge response. Hoping it’s long term but it’s a hopeful thought given sands leaching issues.

@DoozieZibell @HoolyMcg They would have been caught if they had to put the cap back on. It takes about 15 hrs to get the thread lined up to put it back on.

@018_aj We have a 2 fan one and they knew which one it was. A pic for them will confirm it for them. Think they are $600-$800 each. Can’t remember exactly

@andrewefridgway @Tedthekelpie @John_R_Bruce @ryan_milgate @simon_finlayson Will flatten a Ute battery if utes not running for a 1100lt header fill. Cables don’t get to hot though if the wiring is heavy duty.
