In this Regional Update Podcast, we catch up with mixed farmer, Adam Morgan.
Adam farms in Geranium, South Australia and recently attended WeedSmart Week Mildura.
We hear about Adam's experience at the event and hear about the weed pressures on his farm.
The region Adam farms in didn't receive rainfall over summer and so it was very dry coming into seeding, with little subsoil moisture, but things are looking more positive now, with some significant rainfall events throughout the growing season.
Adam uses quite a few of the WeedSmart Big 6, including double knocking, spray topping and cutting hay, but he's looking to potentially get a mill in the future for harvest weed seed control.
Take a listen to hear more about Adam's farming system and the weed pressures he's facing in Geranium, SA.
