Welcome back to Elmore Field Days in 2022! It is such a fantastic statement to be able to say after two unpredictable years. We are excited to see our committee members, sponsors, community, volunteers, exhibitors and the public back to the Elmore Field Days site in October 2022. If anyone had told you before the coronavirus pandemic was announced that it would shut down the world, the Australian states would shut their borders to each other, we would all be locked up in our homes and schools would be shut and all learning would be online, you would have laughed and said “that would never happen”. What an interesting time it has been to live through. The unfortunate decision was made in July 2020 that the 2020 Elmore Field Days would not go ahead due to the ongoing pandemic and the continued restrictions within Victoria. We had high hopes for the 2021 Elmore Field Days to go ahead, however the tough decision was made by the committee to cancel the event in August 2021 due to the ongoing changes in restrictions within Victoria.
In March this year, the Elmore Events Centre hosted the Elmore Tractor Pull in association with St Joseph’s Primary School in Rochester. The event was a huge success, and we are looking forward to hosting it again in March 2023. Thank you to all the volunteers and sponsors — without you this event would not have gone ahead. To the Down Under Modified Tractor Pulling Association, a special thank you for putting on a fantastic display and show.

This will lead to further opportunities in the future to expand the range of events held at the Elmore Event Centre.
A highlight of this year’s Elmore Field Days is the 20-year celebration of the Ag Art Wear competition. This year will be a walk down memory lane with a parade showcasing garments from the past 19 years of competition. These garments are made from materials found on farms, such as silage wrap, chicken wire and cattle tags. Make sure you get down to the auditorium in the General Interest Pavilion to have a look.
We were fortunate enough to host the Victorian Scout Jamboree in December 2021/January 2022, (rather than the National Scout Jamboree as originally planned due to restrictions), and it was great to see the Elmore Field Days site being used once again. Over the 10 days, we saw about 7000 Scouts, volunteers and leaders pass through the site. It was a great effort and commitment from all those involved in running such a large event during these times.

Tractors pull their weight
The first Australian modified tractor pull was held at the Elmore Field Days in 1976, and this year the Elmore Events Centre was excited to bring the tractor pull back to where it all began.
The Elmore Tractor Pull will be back on March 18, 2023.

A modified tractor pulls a weighted sled along an 11 m wide, 100 m long dirt track and, as the tractor pulls the sled further, the more forward the weight goes on the sled — causing the sled to get harder to pull. When the tractor ‘pulls’ the whole 100 m this is called a ‘full pull’. Tractor pulling is known as most powerful motorsport due to some tractors having more than one engine with some of them being over 1000 hp.

The drafting gates out the front of the crush automatically open according to the criteria you select in the scale unit — such as weight groups or any other information you have stored on the animal’s RFID tag. With a Taurus auto-drafting crush you can process your cattle quicker and as a result will weigh more often. With a cycle time of about 10 seconds an animal, it is realistic to weigh 300 head an hour with very little operator intervention.

After all, why burn stubble when you can use it to build carbon in the soil and boost its nutrient-holding capacity?Notonlycan stubble enrich the soil by increasing microorganism activity, it also works to boost nitrogen and carbon, helping to make nutrients available for future crop growth. It also helps prevent erosion and slows down moisture loss due to Andevaporation.let’snot forget the real downsides of stubble burning. According to Agriculture Victoria, “burning contributes to nutrient losses from the stubble”. It estimates that around 80 per cent of nitrogen, 50 to 80 per cent of sulphur and 40 per cent of phosphorus can be lost to the atmosphere from burnt cereal stubble. And additional phosphorus and potassium can be lost in the ash. A recent study also confirmed that stubble burning is one of the major contributors to atmospheric pollution in the world, releasing particulate and gaseous pollutants that have serious effects on human health and the environment. But the challenge of turning crop residual into organic matter remained — until now The team at Biolink 4 Plants has developed a proven program to help croppers manage their stubble and turn it into a valuable resource on the farm. The team’s approach is all about activating beneficial microbes to speed-up the process of organic “Withbreakdown.increasing input costs for crop growers, especially fertilisers and fuel, it’s even more important to use the resources you’ve got at hand,” Biolink 4 Plants co owner and former Victorian dairy farmer Kevin Beecroft said. “Our biologically-based, chemicalfree fertilisers and soil stimulants break down organic matter, enriching the soil and making nutrients more available for the next round of crops. “We’re seeing real results. There are a couple of approaches we’ve seen work. The first is to use a Tow and Fert, applying our Ignition product to stubble. All you need is 5 kg of Ignition in 100 to 200 litres of water per hectare through the Tow and Fert machine or “Aequivalent.secondapproach is to use our Ignition Soil Drench through your normal spray units. “You apply one to two kilograms of the soil drench in 100 to 200 litres of water per hectare with broad spray nozzles (gray or broader).

“Biolink Ignition Soil Drench has gone through a specialised micronising process to bring it down the under five micron in size and energise the carbon content. This helps to get greater penetration and reactive surface areas for the microbials to work with for better breakdown.”

A massive thank you to everyone who has been involved for the past 20 years, including the Ag Art Wear Committee, sponsors, Bendigo Tourism, volunteers, models, judges and, of course, the very talented entrants. Without all of those involved this competition wouldn’t have been the success it was.
To celebrate the 20th and final year of the Ag Art Wear competition, this year’s parade will showcase garments from the past 19 years of Thecompetition.paradewill feature the imaginative, unique and artistic outfits made from agricultural materials found on farms.
Some of the materials used included chicken wire, pinecones, silage mesh, stockfeed bags, wall/ roof installation, cattle tags and hay “Eachband.year it was exciting to see the entries coming through and what new materials the designers had thought to incorporate,” Ag Art Wear Committee chair Lorraine Trewick said. “It was amazing seeing a ball gownstyle dress be made from weed mat, flywire, orange safety mesh, cord, washers and poly pipe.” This year the Ag Art Wear Committee is excited to bring the showcase together at the field days, being able to see the range of the entries over the years. “It is amazing to see where we first started to where we are now,” Lorraine said. “The quality of the garments has increased each year, with lots of the designers having entered for many years. They want to outdo their last garment, so the standard has lifted each year.”
The Ag Art Wear competition started in 2001 at the Elmore Field Days, after the committee was approached by the chief executive officer of the New Zealand Ag Art Wear competition to be its Australian partner. Every garment was unique, as it was up to the imagination of the designer and what they could pull together from the different materials they found on the farm.
Head along to the showcase, which will be held in the auditorium in the General Interest Pavilion at 11 am and 2 pm daily, with the final parade being held on Thursday at 2pm.

This year, Agri Novatex will feature its new SilaNET Max net wrap and Aussiemade silage film at Elmore. SilaNET MAX is the newest net wrap in the company’s range. It’s the result of a major enhancement in the manufacturing process — particularly in the weaving process. The enhanced weave increases the net wrap’s relative strength to weight ration, halves the number of knots, allows an increase in roll length and reduces roll changes across bales. Agri Novatex said SilaNET MAX was perfect for medium to high-density hay and silage crops, making it a good choice for those looking for a multi-purpose net wrap that reduces Thedowntime.lighter, stronger material also means less plastic use.

The Elmore Field Days project ‘Shearing Merinos – The Long and Short of It’ is comparing alternative shearing programs for Merino sheep, firstly as lambs then later as adults.
• Is management of sheep easier with the extra shearing?
33 ELMORE FIELD DAYS 2022
The project will help answer the following questions:
Background: Merino sheep have normally been shorn once a year for the past 200 years in Australia, but now the tradition is no longer the normal on some Shearingfarms.adult Merino sheep more than once a year is slowly becoming a more common practice as sheep are becoming larger, grow heavier fleeces and have longer staple Somelengths.farming operations now shear adult sheep every six months, while others may shear at eight-monthly intervals, or three times in two years.
Project details: The shearing alternatives being tested are:
The2019.first breed type was a medium Peppin from the Riverina with a good emphasis on wool, the second being tested is a larger-framed and plainer-bodied dual-purpose type from northern Victoria. The wethers are being run together as one mob for three years. Interim results indicate a late spring shearing as lambs did not increase body weight relative to those first shorn in autumn, but the first shearing as lambs in autumn increased the body weight by around 1.5kg and increased clean wool production by about five per cent. As adults, there seems to be no body weight difference — the sixmonth shearing has to date not increased sheep weights relative to the annual shearing.

Pipe-and-riser systems have a leaky problem, but a Numurkah invention has solved it.
Business rises to the occasion
Mick Hogan Excavations and Poly Irrigation has been working with irrigators for a long time and designed its own riser after seeing leakage problems from riser seal failures. The Numurkah business now sells the only riser on the market that works with the water pressure to hold the water seal against the Thissealing seat.meansthe stronger the pressure, the stronger the seal, as it’s the pressure which holds the seal in place until the irrigator wants it open. This is different to typical risers which rely on actuators for seal strength.MickHogan Excavations and Poly Irrigation co owner Mark Langham said their riser design seals from the “Weinside out.wereseeing landowners having issues with their existing riser units, which were leaking,” Mr Langham said.

Tama regional technical manager Darrell Butler said Tama had been working hard to decrease the carbon footprint of its products without sacrificing quality.
Tama Australia will be attending the Elmore Field Days and staff will be available to discuss all their products — including their new generation, ‘less plastic’ range.
Less plastic with new wrap
Less plastic is the big new thing for Tama Australia.
The baling net wrap product, called TamaNet Royal, cuts down on plastic by baling high-density cereal crops and heavy-duty bales with less ‘wraps’. According to Tama, each bale wrapped in TamaNet Royal only requires 2.5 wraps, compared to the traditional four wraps. This means there’s up to 45 per cent less plastic used for each bale, or up to one kilometre less plastic for every 100 bales.
Our Irrigation technology solutions deliver total irrigation control through automation, monitoring and real time analysis.
“Tama products with significantly less plastic have been sold for years here and in overseas markets, it’s just been a matter of making sure they work under Australian conditions,” Mr Butler said. “That’s why we conduct extensive trials in Australia, so we know we are not only offering ground-breaking products, but we also know they will work for local farmers in our unforgiving environment.”
And in a national first, there will be a limited amount of silage film containing recycled content available this fodder harvest.

The Certificate IV in Agriculture is available as part of the Free TAFE Scheme for eligible students. Horticulture Andrew Taylor lives on a 44.5 ha property that has a range of timber plantations, a fruit and nut orchard, and has been working in the horticulture industry for more than 20 years. He is now passing on his knowledge and first-hand experience to GOTAFE Certificate IV in Horticulture (AHC40416) students. “Horticulture is a diverse industry area including garden and landscape maintenance, landscape construction, the retail and wholesale nursery industry, the growth and production of food and other crops,” he said. “We give our students a taste of all these streams with the course.”
environmental conservation, love working with animals or farm machinery, or are preparing to take over the family farm, GOTAFE’s land and animals courses will teach you the skills you need. With hands-on training and practical placements, you’ll learn the skills you need for future success and to make a positive contribution to our region. Agriculture GOTAFE student Chris Lindsay grew up on a farm and has always been around animals, so studying a Certificate IV in Agriculture (AHC40116) was a natural progression for him. “I had the fundamentals of farming, but the thing that I’ve found most useful from the course is creating a paper trail and proper documentation,” he said. “I got a lot out of the OH&S department. We already talk about safety, but now we have implemented a standard operating procedure and we do a proper induction for people.”

With the sun in your eyes, trees in your line of vision or if your attention is on something else, you may not see how close you are to them. Powerlines are also more difficult to see at dawn and dusk. You don’t have to make contact with a powerline for it to be fatal — electricity can jump gaps. Be extra aware in rural areas as overhead powerlines are predominantly single conductor lines that are difficult to see and easy to forget. Don’t expect a warning. STOP. Look Up and Live ESV’s Look up and Live campaign raises awareness of the dangers of vehicles, such as tipper trucks, augers, cranes and tractors operating too close to powerlines with the threat of electrical shock or a fatal electrocution, a very real risk. Everyone working on farms and involved in the delivery of materials has a duty of care to ensure the safety of themselves and others. Avoid hitting powerlines with these tips•Whenarriving or working at a site, STOP. Look up. Identify where the powerlines are — and don’t get closer than 6.4 m to them.

The chance to sit in a police car is always popular with children, and adults are fascinated to see all the equipment that officers have at their Atdisposal.thisyear’s field days, a command post bus will be on show and visitors will be able to have a look inside and see all the equipment available to officers when they are conducting operations out of their usual offices, from complex communications equipment to remotely monitored Leadingcameras.Senior Constable Shane Bourke at Elmore police station, said there would be highway patrol cars as well as the command post bus and they were hoping to get a police motorbike as well.
Police presentations will be held daily in the auditorium at 1.30 pm for half an hour. Presentations will be on police assistance line, farm safety and thefts and prevention. It is expected that members from the proactive policing units, such as loss prevention, firearms safety, school safety and youth liaison will be on hand, but that of course depends on what incidents they get called to. Police officers will be available each day to answer questions from the public, be they how to deal with nuisance and scam phone calls, how to join police ranks or how to increase farm security. out the police vehicles is always a popular past time. Victoria Police representatives will be on hand again at this year’s field days.

The Heritage Draught Horse Club will be at Elmore Field Days again this year with their magnificent animals, showing how the land used to be worked before tractors were Heritageintroduced.Draught
The aim of the club is to promote all aspects of the uses of the draught horse in bygone days and to encourage their use in today’s activities, be it on the land, in the bush or for tourism purposes.
Horse Club secretary John Bramley said club members would demonstrate how the horses were harnessed and the implements hitched up, and the horses would work with scarifiers or harrows, singly, in pairs, in a four and even all at once. The club was formed several years ago by people who are enthusiastic about draught horses and working them on the land. The members work the horses on their properties.

Elmore Field Days Committee member Phillip Neale said the draught horses were “growing in interest every year, as it is such a great interactive demonstration”. “I believe every farmer secretly has a soft spot for the Clydesdale horse.” This is a great chance to get up close and take time out to watch the mighty horses working and be transported back to simpler days.

Southern Skin Cancer Clinic will be offering Medicare bulkbilled skin cancer checks. Farmers spend a lot of time outdoors and many forget to follow SunSmart advice, thus increasing their risk of skin cancer. They also might not make time for a yearly skin cancer check. “It is important to showcase what exceptional services we do have access to in a rural area,” Max said.
The Elmore Field Days Committee knows with farmers as members, they often prioritise work over their health. That’s why it is so important to offer these services when people are already walking past. “It can be difficult finding the time to get away from the farm and go to the doctor,” committee member and local farmer Max Williams said. “It is great being able to attend the field days, see the machinery, but also get my yearly skin cancer check.”
The Elmore Field Days offers farmers a convenient opportunity to get their health checked.Exhibitors will offer hearing tests, skin checks, health insurance options and general health check-ups. Visitors to Elmore Field Days should make sure to take time out of their day to head along to get checked.Farmersknow how important it is to check the health of their stock regularly, so it makes sense to take equally good care of themselves.
