Obtained a pet quail, now what?

I have obtained an Australian brown stubble quail and just want to know that i am doing right by it. What type of enclosure would you recommend for a single quail? What should I be feeding it? Currently on a seed mix with access to leaves, leaf cover, small plants and bugs. UPDATE for context: it was dropped off to me this morning. Was found in the paddock by itself (not unusual) but is a juvenile. Was this a misguided rescue and should I just release it and hope for the best? We live in the middle of nowhere so you rescue an animal yourself (you get permits after rescue) or you leave it to die. I am one of the known people who take in wildlife, hence why it was dropped of to me. I live on a farm and am wondering if I should just release it and let nature do its thing (hoping its old enough) UPDATE UPDATE: spoke with some other wildlife carers. Too young to be put on its own know, will release when I can!

Lilac Agriculture secures $2.3M Seed

Agtech startup Lilac Agriculture has closed an oversubscribed $2.3 million seed round led by Innova to solve the long-standing "black box" problem of rhizobial inoculants.

While inoculating pulse crops is standard farming practice, native soil bacteria routinely outcompete commercial strains, preventing them from colonizing root nodules and fixing atmospheric nitrogen effectively.

Founded in 2024 by researchers and industry veterans from North Dakota State University, Lilac utilizes a multi-phase platform that pairs natural strain screening with guided evolution to optimize both nitrogen-fixing efficiency and competitive nodulation in real-world soils.

In field trials across diverse soil types, its debut naturally selected strain, PL11, delivered an 11% yield lift over untreated controls and a 6% boost over legacy commercial products.

Formulated as a cost-competitive, shelf-stable powder, the product generated initial commercial revenues across pulse acreage in the Northern Plains this season.

Lilac plans to deploy the capital to expand trials, develop dry bean and Canadian offerings, and eventually bring its biological platform to soybeans and major row crops with an eye toward near-term profitability.

[Acne] la roche posay efficular range

Ive been recommended by my doctor to try the efficular range from la Roche posay. The range is so big I dont know where to start. I dont have the budget for the whole set so Im wondering if there is one thing in the range that is going to be more efficient. I was thinking a Moisturiser because it sits on the skin? What about the cleansers, would they be better. Please let me know your thoughts or what you would do in my situation! Im currently double cleansing with the palmer's rose hip oil cleanser and a foam cleanser from yours skincare and using the cerave Moisturiser. Just a very basic routine

Starting Out in Ag Drone Mapping

G’day all,
New to the drone space and starting out with farm mapping, data collection and inspections around NSW/ACT.

I’ve done some ag drone/mapping training and CASA accreditation, and I’m now looking to build hours, test workflows and learn from people already doing it commercially.

Main focus is agriculture, with some interest in construction and roof/site inspections as well.

Any advice on what’s worth focusing on early?
