What’s the best way to bring fresh energy into farming systems research? In this episode of the MSF Farm Talk podcast, we introduce Simone Kluge, our first-ever MSF intern! Simone has joined the MSF team to gain hands-on experience in farming systems research and extension. We chat about what drew her to agriculture, how she’s settling in, and the exciting trial work she’s contributing to across the Mallee. This internship is not just a win for Simone, it’s a valuable opportunity for MSF to build future capacity and foster new talent in the ag industry.

‘Farm Systems' or ‘Grower Groups' play a pivotal part in our farming landscape.    Of these, Birchip Cropping Group (BCG) is the pinnacle.    Providing large-scale, in-season crop & pasture production trials, the latest research intelligence and important production improvement training to progressive farmers across Victoria's Wimmera & Mallee for over 30 years, BCG is one of our nation's major contributors to in-paddock production advancement.    Perhaps equally important is the community assembled, the farm management support provided, the collaboration now possible, and the knowledge-sharing and the boundary-pushing outcomes achieved for bringing many hundreds of passionate, forward-thinking farm owners together.    In this episode, I speak with Harm van Rees, a legend and gentleman of our industry, who has been part of the BCG story since its inception.    With BCG Founders Ian McLelland and John Ferrier, and as an independent agronomist for over 30 years, Harm has pioneered countless research and extension projects that help farming families push the boundaries of production. He has consulted directly to many hundreds of farming families over his career, and travelled the world on behalf of GRDC, CSIRO and other research institutes always with a dedication to pushing production boundaries.    Farm Owners Academy is proud to be partnering with leading Grower Groups across Australia, and bringing our business education and coaching capability to their communities. If you are part of a leading Grower or Farming Systems Group in Australia or New Zealand, please reach out to us here to explore opportunities to collaborate.    I hope this discussion with Harm van Rees does both his important career and the BCG story justice.    To CEO Fiona Best and the entire BCG team, and on behalf of our industry (if I may be so bold), I want to say thank you, well done and congratulations on your passion, dedication and support to Australian Farming Families.    Thank you Harm, wonderful to connect, and here's to a positive finish to this production season!    Jeremy Hutchings & the Farm Owners Academy Team    P.S. If you're looking to tackle stress and improve your well-being, we have just released our FREE 2024 Edition of The Low-Stress Farmer's Handbook.

I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Berenice, Rosie and Tam - three women who were keen to test themselves in the sport of ultra distance cycling .  Often these events can feel intimidating and just getting to the start line is a big deal.  So to try and break down those barriers, a group was created called the Fledglings.  Previous guest of the showApril Drage, teamed up with Alice Marsh and Carly Williams to mentor the Fledglings group, sharing the skills they would need to participate in an ultra-cycling event. From learning how to use navigation equipment, attending crash courses in bush mechanic skills, as well as figuring out how to find the best bivvy spot; this group methodically went through each topic together - and also had a lot of fun along the way.The Mallee Blast was their chosen event, which was designed to be beginner friendly.  There were two distance options - 500km and 1000kms and the course was put together with the view that participants would never be too far from services and towns for resupply and accommodation. Of course no-one could have predicted the weather event which hit just at the start, and the Fleglings would have to deal with heavy rain, flooded roads, and peanut butter mud!So what was it like to join the Fledglings, learn the ropes of ultra distance cycling and turn up to the start line of that first event?  Berenice, Rosie and Tam chatted with me to give me the low down on their experiences.

Australian politicians are being threatened with violence in volumes never seen before, with the Australian Federal Police receiving more than 500 reports of threats to MP's safety - a number that's tripled in three years. It's been partly driven by the 'Sovereign Citizen' movement, with COVID-19 providing the perfect breeding ground for their conspiracies to spread. We speak to an expert in extremism about the role COVID's had to play and an MP about her own experience.
