We talk a lot about ensuring the right environments for our livestock… but the other consideration for farmers at this time of year is grain storage ventilation… When you are storing grain… getting the environment right is absolutely crucial! We look at four points to consider... 💦Moisture Control: Proper ventilation is essential to keep grain dry and prevent mould growth, which can spoil the harvest. 🌡️Temperature Management: Ventilation helps maintain a consistent temperature, preventing hotspots that can lead to grain spoilage. 🐛Pest Prevention: Good airflow can help reduce the risk of insect infestations in stored grain. 🎛️Monitoring Systems: Using automated ventilation systems with sensors can help maintain optimal conditions for grain storage. We’ve been doing this type of work for many years. Talk to our team today to get the best environment for your harvest and reduce grain spoilage. js@1803ltd.co.uk https://lnkd.in/evpDwUwu 07850 411309 01980 671053 #agriculture #farming #horticulture #ventilation #design #supply #installation #BuyItRight1stTime #poultry #dairy #Equine #AgriculturalInnovation #AnimalWelfare #Heatstress

Whilst trying to teach my children the art of farming that grazing animals like cattle or pigs can produce vital nutrients on land we can't crop, eating foods humans can't digest. Too often, the many environmental benefits of livestock production (making use of non-arable land, improving soil health, and providing manure for crop systems) are overlooked or dismissed. This is even true by my 10 year old and though I try to discourage the use of phone technology she thought whilst learning the farming way she would rather make the video than star in it. So what I was trying to teach them was that Pigs and cows, in their natural environment, rooting and a tooting on grasslands, when properly managed, can act as significant carbon sinks. The process involves grasses growing rapidly and absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. When cows or pigs graze on these grasses, they trim them down, which stimulates further growth and leads to more carbon absorption, same goes for their poo which fertilizes the soil. Additionally, the movement of the cattle encourages a diversity of plant species and soil aeration, enhancing the soil’s ability to store carbon. Lesson no 1 outside of school grounds just not sure they listened!!. #farmeducation #farming #pigs #pasture #regenerative

The University of Georgia Cooperative Extension compiled its 2024 Southeastern Peach, Nectarine, and Plum Pest Management and Culture Guide. For peach growers in the southeast, the guide recommends TELONE™ applications "should generally be made in the fall prior to mid-November. October soil temperatures often provide the best opportunity for efficacy." It goes on to say, "pre-plant soil fumigation and the use of appropriate rootstocks are strongly encouraged on light, sandy soil where root-knot, root-lesion or ring nematodes are present. On many sites preplant fumigation is imperative to achieve reasonable orchard productivity and longevity." Read the full guide and learn how TELONE™ is a peach grower's best defense against nematodes! https://lnkd.in/gmi_uTCh #TELONE #thebestdefenseagainstnematodes #pestmanagement #peaches #georgiapeaches #GeorgiaAg #agriculture #nematodes

🐌 Slug activity may slow in freezing winter months, but they’re not gone! ❄️ They have adapted to survive by burrowing deep underground where the temperature is more moderate, essentially "hiding" from the frost, and by laying eggs that can withstand freezing temperatures until spring when conditions are warmer. 🌱 Monitoring of juvenile’s early spring will be crucial to understand the threat to your crops. Targeted slug control solutions help manage feeding pressure. #AgriTech #CropProtection #FarmingTips #UkAgriculture #Winter

The upcoming Grazing Land Management EDGE course in Rockhampton has been tailored specifically to CQ graziers. The three-day workshop we will help you to: • understand the role of sown pastures and legumes in grazing, including the management of pasture rundown and pasture dieback • methods to reclaim severely degraded land • understand how your land types influence productivity • identify key plant species • understand how soil properties and health influence plant growth • know what land condition is, how it’s assessed, and how to manage livestock to maintain or achieve good condition • forage budget to manage grazing pressure and cattle nutrition • understand the role of fire in your country • understand the principles and planning steps for successfully managing weeds Where: Coco Brew Rockhampton When: 21-23 August 2024 Tickets are $800 + GST*/ 1st person from one business (usually $1,950pp). $675 + GST*/ 2nd and 3rd person from the same business (usually $1,650pp). *Discounted prices are possible thanks to the support from the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries through the Reef Water Quality program. Included: workshop material, smoko and lunch.

Effective fish production and management are crucial for sustainable aquaculture practices. One of the essential aspects of a fish production and management guide is water management, leading to questions like how often should I change my catfish pond water?, what are the optimal water parameters for fish health and how can I implement a water recirculatory system in fish farming? #Fishery

At ruumi we're working on assessing #Soil #Erosion risk to continuously monitor, report, and verify (#MRV) agricultural soil health at scale! 🌿 Erosion by wind and water causes physical loss of nutrient-rich top-soil and can transfer fertilizer and pollutants into nearby water bodies. Seasonal extremes due to climate change reinforce this: drier summers reinforce erosion by wind; wetter winters reinforce erosion by water. Today we are adding a first soil erosion risk model to our platform allowing us to assess erosion risk for agricultural soils at continental scale! This allows us for example to measure, report, and verify (#MRV) the extend to which a livestock supply-chain is affected by erosion and where to best incentivize counter measures. There are various mitigation strategies #Livestock and #Grassland farmers can implement to help with erosion by wind and water · Never over-graze fields to always leave protective grass cover on fields · Bio-diverse seed mixes with long roots for improved soil structure · Healthy soils for improved water infiltration and capacity for water storage · Low-disturbance re-seeding methods to not open up the soil to erosion · Planting hedges and trees along fields to help with erosion by wind The ruumi platform brings transparency into livestock and grassland supply-chains in real-time and I'm grateful to have a highly motivated team working with me on these urgent and important problems of our time ✊

The video you may have just watched demonstrates poor air circulation in a calf shed…💨 Ensuring proper ventilation in agricultural settings is crucial for maintaining the health and well-being of livestock. ❤️ The video highlights the impact of poor ventilation in a calf shed, emphasising the need for mechanical ventilation systems to ensure a continuous supply of fresh air and the removal of stale air. By implementing effective ventilation, we can significantly reduce the spread of harmful substances like ammonia within the shed, creating a comfortable and draught-free environment for livestock. For expert guidance on optimising ventilation in your agricultural facilities, contact us today.📞 js @1803ltd.co.uk www.1803ltd.co.uk 07850 411309 01980 671053 #agriculture #farming #horticulture #ventilation #design #supply #installation #BuyItRight1stTime #poultry #dairy #Equine #AgriculturalInnovation #FarmingTechnology #VentilationSolutions #FETF2024 #AnimalWelfare #Governmentgrant #applications #cows #fans #Heatstress #cattle #calfs
