But the arm chair “experts†don’t believe it works in Australia either! Look up the watts per square metre yourself. Of course there is a difference. Solar panels are only one option to consider. Use them where they make sense just like wind is a good resource in SW Saskatchewan and not everywhere.

Here is a link to annual watts per square meter in Australia.Last edited by chuckChuck; Sep 26, 2020, 12:11.

That be winter reading material
Much more relevant things on the go right now
Canola coming off good here , so busy

Its like asking a contractor to build a bridge from a photo instead of using engineered plans with all the specifications! Not a good idea!
But maybe you think a photo is good enough? hahahaah
people that can still still think for themselves , and have an open mind , can do all kinds of things
sheeple like you have lost that ability

Will be interesting to see tonnage from each plot and differences in varieties.
The fert was spread with a floater , 110 N , 25 S and 15 K
Then worked in with a case Turbo till , then planted .
The Horsch is able to deliver an additional 4 gal / ac Alpine in the seed row with individual row shut off .
The varieties range from 2150 CHU to 1900
Will get tonnage and feed test results from each plot .
How’s that for a picture book
and the sorry bugger does farm ?
i sure get a lot of good info of the plot results you share
you obviously put a lot of work into it
chucks close to them too , maybe he will help out

Only need one example to prove me wrong.
You have been trying for years without success.
As I always tell my kids, never say never, or always, or can't, someone will always come along and prove you wrong. ( see what I did there?)
I will gladly be proven wrong on this one, I am young, I have kids, hopefully grandkids, I want a future where we can continue to improve our standards of living, cheap reliable, plentiful energy is the only way that will happen. Right now the trend is going the opposite direction for the first time since the industrial revolution. Is this just a side track and we will get back on the main road, or is this what we have to look forward to, peak living standards, and peak affordable energy?

Did you build the one that fell into the river somewhere up your way? The one where the RM and contractor decided to save money by skipping the geo study? The pilings were built on nothing and went down into the mud and eventually the deck collapsed too about a day later. LOL.
Yep some farmers are great at building and modifying farm machinery without plans. Lots of trial and error. But there are some that can’t find and change a fuse!

That was 90 miles away
I did oversee culvert installs , rock crossings and bridge REPAIRS. In my councillor days tho
I am between arborfield and carrot river , deep in the swamp
Thought you knew where i farm
Did that farmer hafta clean up that wheat he protested with ? What became of that in your neck of the woods?

I believe your ideology clouds your understanding and your inability to explain to me how using 4 different generation systems to generate the same kwh of electricity makes more sense and is better for the environment than using just 1 like nuclear or natural gas!!!!
You talk about careful engineering, Brooks solar farm in the month of February 2019, it snowed basically every day, that whole month according to the AESO supply and demand page it produced zero electricity. So yup you can put solar panels in the desert in California and they will work well, in Alberta not so much.
Once again, hooked on the all or nothing approach is the understanding problem. It's a terribly limit assumption. Current policies and regs reflect that so you are not alone in that thinking.
