    Australian Conditions

    Pretty darn good.

    Planting going as per normal maybe tad wet in some parts.

    Not 100% up with planting intentions and or planted but suggest ever so slight swing to wheat at expense of canola and lentils.

    My gues Australia wide 85% done against average of 80.

    Reasonable to very good amount of feed for cattle and sheep.

    Covid all back to normal almost masks in old folks homes and hospitals common sense stuff.

    Travel all back to normal nationally and internationally.

    General costs of living sneaking up same as rest of world.

    Enjoy your day.

    Hope this is your “year of Jubilee “ !!!

    Praying for a miracle here, seeded 10 days early… nice to see our crops up in a reasonable state, start pea weed control today… our edge and fortress should be activated… good preseed weed control… cool weather can extend the life of a crop if weeds are well controlled.

    Cheers and Prayers!

    P.S. 5 in our family with Covid in the last 2 weeks… no serious complications so far… this is not over…

      When does harvest start for most Auz? People my wife’s family know are looking for chaser and header operators in WA. If I didn’t have cows and my help so elderly I’d pack the wife and kids up for a working holiday.
