  • Back to the old price - We have decided to revert to the original price of $44 per month for our paid edition. It’s down from $49.50 per month. Why? We just think it’s priced perfectly at that rate.

  • Some of you will have received an offer - For our most loyal “free” supporters, you would have received an offer over on Tuesday. Check your emails.

  • Sorry, forgot to push the send button - I stuffed up on Saturday and only found out on Monday that I didn’t push send on Saturday’s “free” edition. My apologies.

  • Our latest writings:

  • One Farmer said we need to take the hard out of hard work when it comes to the Sheep Industry. Do you think modern Sheep are hard work?

  • What’s your favourite thing to do on the Farm? Many think it’s Harvest for the reasons we outlined in a story today.

  • Dave Hughes is right, we should have public access to every dollar governements spends. We need to disclose how much was spent and who it went to.

  • Guest columnist Michael Bagshaw discusses being street-smart in Agriculture. There’s no uni course for it…..

  • The Jack Sher podcast just dropped. Jack is a 2nd-generation Farmer, and his old man, Nick, was the first to bring Wagyu to Australia. It’s a ripper podcast this one. Subscribe to listen.

  • Jack Sher talks about their revolutionary Wagyu-on-Holstein program, which recently tagged calf number 100,000. This is a great story about seizing an opportunity.

  • Is the future of Farm and financial management software a customised one? Will it kill the off-the-shelf and build-for-all software market? We dig deeper.

  • WA Farmers CEO Trevor Whittington has the gift of the written word. He has missed his calling, but still has time. This one he penned on how the Chinese Machinery is coming.

  • Guest columnist Caleb Schwatrz describes in great detail how he navigated a marathon on the weekend just gone. It’s another quality piece from Caleb.

  • Coup for Marnoo - My old home town is hosting Pauline Hanson on the 29th of August. Go to the Farmers Fightback page here to book your spot.

  • We went to the Australian Wool and Sheep Show in Bendigo on the weekend. Big crowd and the vibe was positive. The fight for Ewes is on.

  • Guest columnist Michael Bagshaw gets political and sticks up for free enterprise.

  • Have a great Wednesday, subscribe and you’ll know more than next door.
