Regional Frontier winter meetings launch with focus on future farm resilience

Frontier Agriculture has announced the launch of its winter meetings, designed to provide growers with the latest insights and strategies to support confident decision-making for the 2026 season. These meetings, which will take place across the country from November through to February, offer a platform for growers to engage with Frontier’s agronomists, farm traders, technical experts, and digital specialists. The events aim to address the wide-ranging challenges faced by farmers today and help them build more sustainable, resilient farm businesses.

Robert Preston, Frontier’s head of commercial for the south and central regions, emphasized the importance of these meetings as forums for sharing learnings and advice for the year ahead. He noted that the uncertainty faced by growers as they seek to understand the best options for their farms is significant, and the meetings will provide practical, locally relevant advice underpinned by the expertise of Frontier’s local teams.

The winter meetings will cover key seasonal themes, but the insights and advice will be tailored to address the challenges and opportunities specific to each region. Some agendas will also include local guest speakers, adding to the wealth of knowledge available to attendees. Topics to be discussed include an overview of grain markets and advice on developing a diverse marketing strategy, including information on local contract opportunities.

Frontier’s own trials will be shared, along with insights into research being conducted for the 2025-26 season. Crop production strategies will be explored from both a national and regional perspective, covering cropping options, navigating the YR15 gene mutation, soil health, farm biodiversity, effective fungicide strategies, and grassweed management. These discussions will help growers build more resilient and sustainable operations.

In addition to the expert advice, the meetings provide a unique opportunity for growers to network with each other and share their own experiences and knowledge. This collaborative environment fosters a sense of community and allows for the exchange of best practices, which can be invaluable as growers navigate the complexities of modern agriculture.

Frontier Agriculture’s winter meetings are a comprehensive resource for growers looking to make informed decisions about their farms. By combining expert insights with regional-specific advice, these events offer a valuable opportunity to stay ahead of the curve and prepare for the challenges of the upcoming season. With a focus on farm resilience and sustainability, the meetings reflect Frontier’s commitment to supporting growers in building thriving agricultural businesses.

UI backwards compatibility

About once a month, an app that I regularly use will change its UI in a way that breaks muscle memory, basically tricking the user into doing things they don’t want. Zulip In recent memory, Zulip (a slack competitor) changed its newline behavior so that ctrl + enter sends a message instead of inserting a new line. After this change, I sent a number of half-baked messages and it seemed like some other people did too. Around the time they made that change, they made another change such that a series of clicks that would cause you to send a private message to someone would instead cause you to send a private message to the alphabetically first person who was online. Most people didn’t notice that this was a change, but when I mentioned that this had happened to me a few times in the past couple weeks, multiple people immediately said that the exact same thing happened to them. Some people also mentioned that the behavior of navigation shortcut keys was changed in a way that could cause people to broadcast a message instead of sending a private message. In both cases, some people blamed themselves and didn’t know why they’d just started making mistakes that caused them to send messages to the wrong place. Doors A while back, I was at Black Seed Bagel, which has a door that looks 75% like a “push” door from both sides when it’s actually a push door from the outside and
