My new side quest: making on farm data natural to use/useful.
A model/OS/industry agnostic tool for thought powered by your existing LLM.
Multi farm, mobs/animals, local data, reports. Works with other tools, research/bpm, shares nothing without permission.
More to come✌🏻#ausag #Agriculture

It's two decades since Tasmanian vegetable growers led one of Australia's biggest agricultural protests to Canberra. The tractor-powered Fair Dinkum Food Campaign pushed for an overhaul of food labeling and for consumers to buy locally grown produce. While labelling improved, farmers say 20 years on, local growers and manufacturers are battling for survival, forced to compete against the rising tide of cheap imports.

Neat to see an article on the ABC that has links with research I was involved in back in Qld! I led a large research project, DAQ00186, funded by Grains Research and Development Corporation, that included sunflower variety trials for TSV resistance with QDAF conducting the trial work. https://www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2023-06-11/sunflower-industry-biofuel-plan-emerald-queensland/102446736 #Research #Agriculture #Sunflower #AusAg
