OUR TWEET of the week this week comes from Kimba South Australia farmer Trevor Cliff, who has offered his advice for those struggling with billowing directly harvested canola crops.
Trevor is using ratchet straps across the front to keep crop down after it has been cut and fed onto the deck before making its lateral journey to the feeder house.
We have seen a bit of discussion along these lines on Twitter and all those using straps to combat the billow claim it works well. Trevor reckons it has doubled canola harvest speed for them.
