widespread frost damage in wa As more growers finish their coarse grains (canola, barley, and lupins) and begin their wheat harvesting, our worst fears are being realised - frost! We had lsevere and late frosts in September and October that are likely to have been the cuplrits. There is no way harvest forecasts are going to reach targets that have been spruked by those that supposedly know how much we are going to produce LOL. Every farmer I have spoken too has it and my trucking contractor who carts from a wide range of areas into Perth says all their clients are affected. The boys down South will be a little worried too since it is not until the crop ripens off that you can see the sickly black colour of frost damage. Yet another reason for the AWB to upgrade the toilets next to Lindbergs office! ROFL!
