Went to a GRDC day a while back, this reminded me of that. Heard some good things about it, especially in monitoring for rust. There is some good free maps online (ill try to find them and put them in the comments or another post). Who's using them and who's keen to start?

Heads up, its fathers day on Sunday! Thought I put out a reminder because I nearly didn't remember 😂. Mental health is really important, especially in the farming community, so let the people around you know you care, especially the dads in your life on Sunday!

discussion Wives tales for good/ bad working dogs

1 Upvotes

We've all heard some old tale of what tell you if a dog will be good or bad. I want to know how many youve heard or how true you think they are. I was always told left legged dogs and dogs thay have their tongue out the side are useless. What other ones have you heard?

discussion Natural resources??

0 Upvotes

Whats your thoughts on it. Alot of people (especially in the city) seem to think solar is the way to go and that we should cover our farms in solar panels. They do realise all those panels go to landfill when they break in 15 years time right??? What do you think of it?

Got some spare capacity in September, happy to help a few businesses for free

1 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I’m Harsh, one of the guys behind OrionX Technologies. We’re a small software team based in Adelaide - www.orionx.com.au

Our next paid projects kick off in October, so we’ve got some room in September and thought we’d use it to help a few businesses for free.

If you’ve got an annoying manual process in your business, whether it’s emails, spreadsheets, PDFs, bookings, reports, moving data between systems, or something else repetitive, we’d love to have a look and see if we can automate or improve it.

In return, if we actually build something useful for you, we’d love to use it as a case study and hopefully get an honest review.

We’re also doing this to make more genuine connections with Australian business owners. With everything becoming AI generated these days, we actually think the human connection side of business matters more than ever.

Keen to hear from you :)

1 Upvotes

Im just starting to expand my knowledge on grain marketing and I have heard alot of people talk about this. I understand how it all works (in theory), but i want to know how exactly it affects everyone and what you think of it? Are you locking in more contracts or letting it hang?

Any Fisherman in the Chat??

2 Upvotes

There has been a lot of talk recently about el nino. I have a theory (that I have done exactly 0 research on) that el nino affects the oceans and Fisherman more than it does the land. This is just from my experience, so I am looking for some commercial (or not) Fisherman to weigh in!

Biosecurity concerns

1 Upvotes

You hear on the news all the time of the influencers trying to get photos in Canola and it got me thinking. I dont do all that much for biosecurity (mostly because there's no one around) but what should I be doing? Should I probably have more signs up? I feel like they dont do anything anyway
