Your a stud for sure – at Narrabri, New South Wales
Just enjoying a casual catch up with the boys before I slip next door and extend the passion
Couple of nice warm sunny days off in Darwin and then come back to bellata to a shower rain and a massive frost the next morning #MotherNatureIsAlwaysABitch

Heliothis puntifera swarming the district and hanging around the faba beans, coming out of the grass and tree lines, haven’t seen this for 10 years. They’re supposedly a desert insect! Well they got that right. #MotherNaturesAlwaysABitch

Right on top of a tram line, gives a new meaning to bang on track – at New South Wales, Australia
A 30-foot crater has appeared in a German cornfield overnight after a #WW2 bomb spontaneously detonated. No one was injured in the blast.

Up to 50-60 inches in season precipitation causing large areas of @KansasWheat fields to drown out. Read an update on #wheat conditions here: Kansas wheat update: June 10, 2019 ksu.ag/2MDWWLt Photo by Jenny Sherbet in Dickinson Co.

You might have to measure your tramlines out and put drums at the end of your runs like the old days – at New South Wales, Australia

Could be the Marketer that stuffed up the rainfall I’d recon #Jessie – at New South Wales, Australia
Week 12 of our #dryland #cotton19. Checking it out with our agronomist @Penagcon, although taking applications for an #agronomist that can guarantee rainfall, this one has failed. Crop is dropping fruit now. #nolongleff #flowershittingthetop

Your job to get the rain not mine – at Port Macquarie, New South Wales
Week 10 of our #dryland #cotton19 with my offsider. It’s hanging in there with a few flowers but would really take advantage of some rain NOW!
