Looking to purchase a new JCB and wondering what model do people suggest, what not to have?
Want it for Vetch hay and straw aswell as other front end loader jobs, stick rake etc. Also have a JD M140 loader that we will be keeping.
100 years of Pioneer hybrid corn. Over this period, growers have seen yields rise from 60 bushels per acre (3.8t/ha) to 600 bushels per acre (37.7t/ha). David Hula believes we can get too 1000 bushels per acre (62.8t/ha). @pioneerseedsau
Record corn yields have risen 10x in 100 years. David Hula says continued genetic gains, along with a deeper understanding of what's happening underground, could push yield potential far beyond what most farmers expect. agweb.com/news/crops/corn/60…
Corn STRIKE site at Howlong NSW. Some very impressive hybrids. P17822IT is currently commercially available and is a great silage option. Site was sown late but looks fantastic so will be interesting to see what it yields. @pioneerseedsau

As motorists continue to battle service station shock, the agricultural industry is asking one question: why don't we farm more fuel? Most canola grown in Australia is shipped offshore to Europe to be made into biofuel at a time the nation is desperate for its own liquid gold.

Wonder where your taxes are spent? Here's a breakdown based upon last years budget (FY2023-24). Welfare (combined is nearly 41%) and it the highest expense category followed by Health, then Defence.

Fancy a productivity summit run by the govt. How many MPs who represent us have little to zero business experience. It should be a prerequisite to be allowed on a ballot paper. The country is ultimately a business that has a breadth ,

Test run in preparation for sowing of PY520TC canola. TC used for potential Imi residual and Triazine for better control of weeds.Drier than I would like, so will be sitting in the ground for a while. @pioneerseedsau #canola #johndeere #plentyofdust #plant2025

Still in love with this data from 2024 @GRDC Canola Establishment. Grain yield declined by ~0.2t/ha (0r about 4-5%) per week that emergence was delayed after 4 April at Wynarka. The different water amounts or plant numbers established didn't matter - timing trumps density :)

Sam O'Shannessy (@EldersLimited Bendigo) in front of NEW Pioneer® Y Series® canola hybrid PY429T at the Bridgewater VIC canola STRIKE (Seed Technology Research In Key Environments) trial site. Sam is very impressed with the biomass of Triazine Tolerant hybrid PY429T.
Irrigated Farmers Network, Irrigated Insights 2024 at Rich River Golf Club Moama. Will be a great day with a good line up of speakers and a chance to catch up with those involved in irrigated cropping. @pioneerseedsau @IrrigationFN

Some visuals, one definitely don't want to see on Ramps, and specifically around an aircraft.
A scene from Vancouver International Airport (YVR), Canada on 09 July where many snakes spilled onto the apron after a box got broken open.
Ground handling staffs were shocked when they saw the snakes suddenly scattered around.
