AGRANA Starch’s Post

From the NSW Mid North Coast right up to Queensland’s Atherton Tablelands, harvest is one of the busiest times of the year for the 800+ hardworking macadamia growers in Australia’s orchards.   The macadamia growing season can be broken down into three main periods:   >> August – September: Flowering begins   >> October – January: Nuts begin to form in clusters, their shells harden, and oil rapidly accumulates   >> February – August: Mature nuts fall to the ground and are harvested with purpose-built harvesting machinery   Come harvest time, the beautiful mature macadamia nuts that have fallen to the ground are collected by purpose-built harvesters.    They’re then transported to processing facilities where they’re de-husked, cracked, sorted and packed, with the husks returned to the orchard floor. #macadamias #macadamianuts #ausmacadamias #AustralianMacadamias #nuts #nutindustry #macadamiafarmers #macadamiasuppliers #harvest Jacqui Price Clare Hamilton-Bate

How can you harvest better results for your business? In this game, I got to be a farmer, planting crops, like planting seeds for my perspective, clients and nurturing their growth, tending to the relationship, following up, and then making sure I have enough people on my team to harvest the results. So many great metaphors! #FrontierTrainings #clintonswaine #salesmastery Clinton Swaine

We're caught up in the rhythms and cycles of the season - growing, tending, harvesting, rinse, repeat. Most of our overwintered crops are finished now- and just in time, because we're expecting many things to be ready within the next few weeks. Soon we'll have chards, cilantro, dandelion, green onion & spinach. The overwintered spinach has been plentiful, and we are almost finished harvesting. By the time that is done, the new transplants should be ready. Here’s a sneak peek - these are the very first spinach transplants of 2024, and they are spectacular! A telltale sign of great things to come. We are fortunate to farm here in Southern Ontario – some of the best farmland in the world! It MUST be protected for generations to come. #Spinach #LoveOntFood #LocalFoodWeek #OntarioFarm #SustainableAgriculture #Organic #Pfennings #WholesaleProduce #NoFarmlandNoFood #OntarioOrganic

The Importance of Smart Sowing Just like in farming, the groundwork we lay in our lives determines the harvest we'll reap. Smart sowing is all about intentional actions, thoughtful planning, and consistent nurturing. When we meticulously prepare and sow our seeds—whether they be ideas, goals, or efforts—we set ourselves up for the best possible outcomes. Smart sowing bears the best harvest. 🌱 Every seed represents hope and potential. Plan, prepare, and nurture your actions for maximum results, and watch as your efforts yield a bountiful harvest.
