Combining is on hold, waiting for a bearing

so lugged the straw with the boss and father

60 years between this pair, both as keen as mustard

That @TripleSix bloke, he's just roofless with a disc cutter.

finally making a start on cottage number 2. Funding almost in place, just as the bank rate goes up. Typical.

We've 60 acres of soy beans to cut end of September/beginning of October. Started on the 6th July, cut for 21 days 2496 acres worked 2 saturdays and 1 Sunday, stopped most nights by 9pm. I doubt they'll be another season like it
Last year we finished on the 28th august which is normal tbh

With one machine? and the other one parked up all season?
By the way, if you've lost a black Larrington trailer, I know where it is!

Out soil testing this afternoon, and had some quite startling results! I really wasn’t expecting to see these so low ! Especially given where they’d come from....
Has anyone else noticed drastically reduced ph or other nutrients this year? Wondering if the months of nonstop rain we had have literally rinsed some soils of their nutrients?
I’m no agronomist, so I don’t know if there’s any weight in that theory?...

Made a start

Bloody water in Feb/Mar and April made some of it a bit plain.

Less than 40mm rain in 3 months hasn't really bothered it.
