    as if your not sick of me more info good useless up to you

    Beans have been the most adversely impacted. Many bean growing areas are expected to see a complete wipe-out of the crop. Notably, the more disease resistant Samira’s have been able to hold up bet- ter than the IMI resistant Bendoc variety. Like lentils, for areas that have done well to control disease, bean yields are reported between 7-10 MT/ha, but also akin to lentils, it likely won’t be enough to off- set the losses elsewhere. For Victoria, bean yield losses are forecast to average between 60-70%.
    The biggest difficulty is trafficability to get out and control disease. Some crops are (anecdotally) 20cm under water around Nhill and Birchip. Growers are simply finding it impossible to get out into the field until the water drains.

    But Egypt buy 70% plus of Aussie beans currently facing record low currency and banks tightening lending and heavy resilience to lending for importers

    Have a good night guys gals and convertibles will ring ya about 3 to 4 pm Monday your time furrow

      I feel for you mallee. It is tough watching a beautiful crop get beat up before it can get harvested.

      37C and lots of standing water would be a recipe for thunderstorms and hail here.

      Hope you can get your crop harvested in decent shape.

              High heat, high humidity. I can only imagine. We get that for a few days maybe once a decade or more.
              It's your go or die like our winter?

                The barley we combined in the spring of 2020 didn't look as bad as that. And it had been rained and snowed on all fall, sat out all winter, got rained on every day from late April till early June when we finally finished combining it.
