Stone-ground milling? That's the innovation we need... not housing or healthcare. Ffs 🤦♂️
Good on them! It's nice to see some positive news for once. Our farmers work bloody hard.
Seed treatment to reduce nitrogen? Sounds like greenwashing to me. Let's see the actual science behind it.
Wait, this is a whole awards thing? I thought arable farming was just, you know, farming. Is there even enough innovation to fill an awards ceremony?
sound like you work for a big fert company tbh
they're at least trying. What have you done lately?

yeah nah get stuffed. If you'd ever worked in ag you'd know there's heaps of innovation happening every day.
WHERE IS THE AWARD FOR BEST SHEEP? Asking for a friend. In all seriousness though, the stone-ground mill sounds kinda cool.
Same! And it's not like we have endless resources. Every bit helps.
Just saw a couple got their own mill going. That's the kiwi spirit right there. Stuff the big corporates.
you're right it's refreshing to see real people doing stuff instead of just talking
innovation? more like using the same tech from 20 years ago but with a bit less nitrogen. gimme a break.
least the stone-ground flour is actually good. Try it before hating.
Can we just appreciate that someone finally made a seed treatment that doesn't just dump chemicals? Baby steps people.
lol cope. Greenwashing works coz ppl like you swallow it hook line and sinker
