Tim, how much weight are you looking to put on between joining and lambing? Presuming roughly 15kg from the time rams come out of ewes to pre lamb?

Got the bon bon manufacturers telling us to eat less meat now. Too late, I just consumed enough lamb, chicken and ham to feed a small army and it was fucken delicious!! (Sorry, NOT sorry)

Is there a specific website graham where you are getting that data or is it private farm data?

Hey Graham, are there any particular sites you use to monitor soil temp. The one east of hamilton is on black cracking clays that have been cropped last 6 years, the other at Harrow which might not reflect temps sth of Hamilton. Still seeing lots of variation with probe at 9am

Looking fit and healthy Pete. Well done.

Yep already feeling guilty I can't get to athletics day Thursday 🤔😳

Parent teacher interview last night?

If you are a Vic farmer that feeds ewes through lambing, uses self feeders and scans for multiples - reach out and be part of this exciting research. Minimal time investment from your end as data collection occurs pre lamb and then at marking by me!! You keep the feeding records

Too many tragic farming accidents Ross. A very sad time for the warracknabeal community

Looking forward to delivering the very first Victorian @woolinnovation #simplifly workshop today with support from @VicGovAg. This AWI extension program is all about the tools available to manage flystrike.

Gday Nigel, do you have a group that were teased as per your traditional method to make a comparison to the new method? Is this new protocol something new or is it becoming standard practice in NSW? TIA

Agree, but pasture quality will dictate rate of CS loss or gain. A 0.3 CS loss in a 60kg sheep equivalent to 3.6kg LW give or take. Hard to see that visually in full wool and if your not CSing every couple of weeks. Testing pasture establishes baseline to help work from.

Agree 100%. Particularly with pastures at the moment. Complacency with green pick around can lull you into a false sense of security!

The further you go from Melbourne, the worse it gets

Yeah agree. It doesn't matter where you are, they all need a tune up. It's obviously cheaper and easier to put signs out and slow traffic down than it is to fix them. It's just been years with nothing getting done and they get worse and worse. So frustrating.
