A unique network of monitoring stations have been installed across some of Australia’s most hail-prone locations, to better understand extreme weather events. Associate Professor Matthew Mason from the University of Queensland's School of Civil Engineering tells us all about it. 

 

We also chat to Terry Antonio - a farmer in Salmon Gums, chair of the Esperance Zone Innovation Group and a panelist at the upcoming Evoke Ag event in Melbourne. 

 

And Burando Hill's Stew Mckenzie pops in to talk about augers and staying safe on the road when passing large machinery.
