Yeah i know its in the wrong thread but jus couldnt be arsed looking for the thread,
Do think it is just locals forcing their way through to go off roading, or more sinister crews on the scadge?
Either way it's a PITA, but one of the options could bring more pain if caught etc.

Chickpeas are starting to grow with the onset of warmer weather
Compare with my pics of a week or so ago
Just starting to flower now, have a bee man interested in putting some hives here

How big do the chick pea plants get @Farmer Roy ? I've grown them here on a v small scale but our climate is not really ideal for them.

like everything else here, there is huge variation due to seasonal conditions, but yes, in a good year they will close the rows on 1 m spacings ( these are on 1 metre rows, but they are grown in any configuration from 250 mm up ) & be somewhere between knee & hip high
No - they are best suited to hot dry climates, which is why they are so popular in the western grain growing regions of northern NSW / southern Qld
Could you set a trail Cam somewhere to get some shots?

Aye, I'd thought of that but not sure if it'd stay there long enough before it was spotted and got nicked, judt lack of good places to hide it outa sight

I just saw this on Facebook, but these are planted on 30ā ( 750 mm ) rows. At Condamine Qld, so further north & earlier than us, but gives you an idea
