Unique ideas should be added to this group as new topics.

If an idea is closely related to an existing topic then it would be best post it as a comment to that topic.

It's ok to post comments that basically agree with what has been said since one of the goals of this group is try and assess need within the farming community.

This forum allows you to post images so please take advantage of that if you feel it will help to communicate an idea.

Please note it is easy to add images to your posts and can be very helpful!

Three methods work;

Just copy an image from another program or window and then paste it into your post. The paste can most easily be done by right-clicking in windows and choosing paste or by using the short-cut [ctrl] v
Attach a file.
Click on the image icon in the tools bar above the posting area and a dialog will open up walking you through choosing a file to insert.
