I should clarify.
Not talking about wholesale mass assassinations by sniper...
This is the same area as first picture. The dark background is mimosa bush and white heat is feral pigs @ ≈400m. So this is what I do of a night, walk around, doing nocturnal conservation.

I don't have a mood board. But if I did this would be it for briars, pigs, everything....
"You'll keep" is the unofficial family motto.
Anyway the thermal will be pressed into vigorous action this evening. Vindicatio for 15 years of crop losses.

Native vegetation on ground can finally see sunlight after decades of 100% coverage of woody weed for 3 decades: weeds.dpi.nsw.gov.au/Weeds/Mimosa...
Stage 1 (dozer) complete soon.
Stage 2 (sprays) begin in the new year.
Don't get mad. Just bide your time, then kill them all.

Was a rather busy week with my new little seed grading setup.
Oh and grain vac work in an old silo - for 5 hours after the facemask broke - not so wise. Mad lung infection, 36 hours sleep in 48.

Makes you wonder if those folks sharing material like this will get on some naughty lists by big tech?

What fresh hell shall tomorrow then bring, and what new ways for me to foul things up?
Anyway. Have a fence on on paddock at 10.5kv and other 5. More clean downs and fixups post harvest. New water troughs working. Things done.

Couple of things different in 6 years.
1. Varieties have changed, going a shorter day one.
2. Grass weed management has got a lot harder so we're changing to address that the best we can.
3. Different advisor. But came up with very normal ideas after discussions. Not much of a bug checker though!

2. Pre plant spray of clethodim and haloxyfop with glyphosate, fluroxypyr, ammonium sulfate and spray oil
3. Post plant spray of paraquat, s -metachlor, atrazine and terbuthylazine.
It's kind of nothing new, but also pretty sensible yeah. Last time in same paddock...

So for managing summer grass weeds in a sorghum crop, my agronomist has suggested the following steps:
1. Plant row spacing. Switch from 1m spacing to 50cm. 2.5kg/ha for 50k plants per ha
Bonus is it let's me do it with JD1890 planter (2nd rank locked up) and add 65kg starter Z. Give it some

It's is done....
Harvest 2024 is complete.
Enough wheat and linseed for nearly 4 million loaves of bread, and many million serves of hummus worth of chickpeas.
To bed.

So in the other place, I have an time-honoured custom. A video which encapsulates perfectly the spirit of harvest (played by Bane).
So time for your anual #harvest video tradition.

Calm.
Polite.
Open dialogue.
Communal solutions finding.
Flexible approach.
Adaptive planning.
Clear directions.
Even a few jokes?!
Not sure who this imposter manager is this #harvest24. Seems to be working though.
The rage monster within still lives and roars within but masked over this year!
