We study and share what Farmers do - Humanoids are a perfect fit for Farm work Elon Musk was quoted recently as saying that his humanoid project, Optimus, could end up being his biggest project yet. Bigger than Tesla or SpaceX They are talking about humanoids doing physical tasks humans do. Physical AI, they call it. Imagine walking into a Woolshed and the whole Shearing team is humanoids. Imagine you’re driving down a back road and you see on your 2 humanoids banging in steel posts for a perfectly straight fence line. I still think these humanoids are the answer to virtual fencing for Sheep. Could these humanoids make our Farming businesses more efficient and, in turn, more prosperous? Keep a very close eye on physical AI. It’s a perfect fit for Farming tasks. Follow us to know more than next door - thefarmersclub.com.au/ Have a great Thursday.

We study and share what Farmers do - Population decline thoughts We wrote an article in our Agletter this morning about the negative correlation between population decline and Farm Commodity production. We have been doing a little research on population decline, and we are just seeing the start of it. As an example, China’s population has declined by 8 million in the last four years, and that’s expected to accelerate. I’m pretty sure it’s going to happen everywhere except the African countries. For Farm production, it’s a straightforward supply-and-demand equation when there aren't as many mouths to feed. It’s not alarm bells just yet, but it’s worth factoring into our future plans. What do you think might happen in this population decline era? Follow us to know more than next door - thefarmersclub.com.au/ Have a great Wednesday. Dwain Duxson 0427 011 900 [email protected]

We study and share what Farmers do - Leading without ego I had the pleasure of doing a podcast interview with newly coined Victorian Farmers Federation president, Ryan Milgate. I’ve known Ryan for a while, but the interview gave me a better understanding of his leadership style. He said he likes to stay more in the background and lift and develop others so they get the best out of themselves. That’s modern-day leadership. He leads without ego. You'll get a great understanding of that when you listen to the podcast. How would you describe your leadership style? PS - See image. This is how we got him to answer the hard questions....

We study and share what Farmers do - Use SafePay for payment reassurance Sometimes we underestimate a product or service and don’t really understand the benefits until we use it. At Farm Tender, we developed a product called SafePay. If someone transacts through Farm Tender, the admin team will do the invoice on behalf of the seller to the buyer and take the money into the Farm Tender trust account, where it sits until both parties are happy. Once both parties have ticked off, the funds are transferred to the seller minus Farm Tender's commission. In this day and age, you can never be too careful when transacting with your hard-earned money. SafePay takes away all that worry. And best of all, the Farm Tender team does it all for you. Check out SafePay here - farmtender.com.au/safepay Follow us to know more than next door - thefarmersclub.com.au/ Have a great Monday. Dwain Duxson 0427 011 900 [email protected]

We study and share what Farmers do - Be honest about your Hay Many a Hay seller has had a story about getting shafted by a Dairy Farmer who didn't pay. Luckily, most of those Dairy Farmers are out of the industry now. So the biggest problem the Hay industry has now is sellers who say someone is when it isn’t. This year, a lot of Hay has been weather damaged and therefore downgraded. Hay sellers have taken a financial hit from this. And this is where the problem lies. Some sellers who misquote the quality think they might get a few extra bucks. But all they do is harm their reputation. Trust in Ag is built in droplets and lost in bucket loads. Be honest about your Hay. It is what it is. Follow us to know more than next door - thefarmersclub.com.au/ Have a great Friday. Dwain Duxson 0427 011 900 [email protected]

We study and share what Farmers do - Great idea - Educating is the new marketing One of our Agletter subscribers has been trying to sell his large Cropping property for some time now. He’s had no luck yet. So he thought of an idea. Rather than market it the traditional way through the Agent, why not try something different? So what he’s done is he’s gathered two of the key Farm advisors he has worked with over the years and is running a webinar. The webinar will review his benchmarking results over the years and compare them with other Croppers in SA. Even if you're not interested in the property, it will be very interesting to watch. Sign up for the webinar here. tinyurl.com/5yrt5ax7 This might be a game changer in how large Rural properties are marketed. Great idea.
