I guess you could say shits getting real for the governments in Europe messing with their local farmers, be fun to watch if it got, good time on the news instead we see three people glued to a road some where randomly 🤷
Very privileged and pleased that John McKenzie accepting an invitation to come and yarn, it was a special time for Glenn and my self as it’s not often you get quality light hearted time with the boss
Really privileged to be able to take my work home, it just such a healthy feeling feeding animals on such awesome autumn pasture. I love creating functional diverse pastures. #New Zealand farming #functional diversity #lifestyle

Here is a short video where I attempt to cover off the key messages around establishing and managing #catchcrops after winter grazing. Help distributing to farmers would be much appreciated! @plantandfood @AgResearchNEWS @MPI_NZ – at Selwyn District, New Zealand
This is the episode that we actually recorded first so we took the time to share our journey together which makes it just that little bit more special to me, also you have to listen just to hear one of Glenn’s better dad jokes 🤦🏻♂️ facebook.com/AgricomNZ/photo…

Thanks to the hardwork of some key authors NZGA has updated the 'Pasture and Forage Plants for NZ' - written for farmers, students and rural professionals.

It's time for episode 2 🙌
This time Al and Juddy are here to take us for a wander through the topic of ryegrasses so we can get an appreciation for just how important they are to New Zealand’s agriculture.
Find out how to listen here: ecs.page.link/MaS91
I probably should share this, it’s a little bit of an intimidating experience but I think it may interest one or two people - we have started a Podcast series call The Al and Juddy show hope it’s a positive addition to the New Zealand agricultural story ecs.page.link/kbstm

Who would of thought I would pull over to appreciate the colours of Hieracium pilosella and sorrel (indicator plants of very low phosphate and extremely low pH respectively),but what can I say, the colours are lovely for the moment
