Hi All,

I am a student studying crops in the Coleambally Irrigation Area. I collected some satallite photos from Google Earth, but I am not sure what these crop are. Does anyone could help me identify the types of these crop? Thank you very much!  These photos are posted below (these photos were taken on 18 Dec 2015):

Hi Everybody,

We've purchased a block with a shed house on and our longer term plan is to build our own house and new sheds.  We aim to have water tanks to collect rainwater from each of the new buildings but we're not sure what type of tank is suitable so that we can use the water for domestic purposes (particularly drinking).

hi

new member here.

would like to get some opinions/ideas/advice on designing farm fencing. i am inheriting part of my fathers farm and its in need of new fencing. i am also moving it from a sheep farm to cattle production. i would like to know how wide a laneway should be?  i plan to have most paddocks along these 2 laneways i'll be putting in. with yards in a central position between the 2. also need to be able to get machinery into the paddocks from the laneway. what width laneway would suit?

Hi all,

I have spent a little time on a close friend's property in QLD, and am wanting to get into the hobby farm game myself. 

I'm in the very early stages or working the financials of it all and i think i'm on the right track, but any advise is appreciated.

The workings of second mortgages etc are all sorted, what i need to know is if i am working out buy/sell prices for cattle correctly. 

The figures I have been given so far are:

Buy price - $1.75/kg for roughly 250kg weener

My wife and I have a 15 acre farm in Toongabbie, Victoria. We've received a notice from council asking us to prove that we're "primary producers" or have (proper) plans to be. To do this we need an accountant who's on the ball with the intricacies of small farming ventures and can help us put this plan together so that the council can see what we want to do. We've only just moved in and spent a fortune on fences so there's not much left at present to get stock...

How do we find such an accountant?
