16:39Now PlayingFrom the stump-jump plough to mechanical sheep shears, Australia can boast an impressive list of world-class inventions that have come from the land. But one story that's not so well known is how a New South Wales wheat farmer came up with an idea that revolutionised the global grain industry.
