Seeding is Finally Finished!

This year’s seeding started out with a massive rain! Around 90mm marked a very good start to the season, meaning we seeded more land than ever before at a total of just over 13,200 hectares or 32,600 acres.

Initial rains flooding a few paddocks.

Unfortunately, that good rain quickly dried up and we didn’t get anymore rain for the rest of seeding other than a couple of drizzles here and there. There is more rain on the horizon so hopefully we get that to set up the crop nicely for a good year.

This also marked the first year for both the Eagle Seeding bar as well as the Case IH Quadtrack 715 tractor. We were happy with how they both performed.

Fingers crossed the crops come up well and it ends up being a good season.

I will have videos of both the plowing we did pre seeding as well as a seeding video itself within the next few weeks. For now, enjoy some of the photos I took along the way in the gallery.
