    If I read excellent Crop Potential one more Time Ill!

    Bloody idiots is what some of these market adviser's commentators ext are. Just get out of your god damn office and take a drive. Its raining and raining and raining and guess what the calendar is almost going to turn a page. The weeks forecast is wet wet wet. Yet today I read that Howard Leaman feels we have excellent crop conditions in western Canada. When you don't farm and just tell whats happening you really don't understand. Take a guy with 6000 acres and has only 1000 in and it just rained another inch. Or moosejaw area farmer who is 40% done and its almost June or how well do lentils like sitting in mud. Hm They have never seeded this late their spinning. But writers of this trivial BS like to run a spin that things are great so potential is great. Yea if it stopped raining today for three weeks and boom All was seeded tomorrow then three warm hot weeks with warm nights then three inch rain after spraying then hot hot and rain at night for July then hot all August and Sept for excellent harvest.
    BS is what I say in fairy tail world that's what farming is all about but in reality its one shitty hard life.
    So why not humor the farmers that actually do the work and tell it like it is, we are getting to point if it rains one more week like forecasted for a very very late crop this drops potential unless a open fall like lasts years one in 100 years to harvest most crop in November. So Canadian production will be down.

    Their is also a good point to be made for final yield results. Take seeded acreage of predicted minus actual, then take all late canola seeded and final yield and take frost damage to early seeded canola and its an excellent potential crop. We had Two awesome years if one was a gambler whats the odds of three. Really whats the odds.

      Just got some serious rain south of Regina. We definatly no longer have a normal crop now. Alot of crops seeded late down here either effected by hot winds in July or frosts in September... I am 80% done but most are 50%.

        Seeding is completed in our area , crops have emerged. Excellent growing conditions and spraying is under way. Very dry from last fall, but have received timely rains. Crops have a long way to go and subsoil moisture is low. Potential is just that potential. Does not mean squat till the last load is in the bin.

            Received 20 mm rain last night and 10 on Saturday. Top 12 in has good moisture, after that moisture is minimal. We will need rain every 2 weeks , to sustain growth.

                      Is this a normal year for you? I always thought manitoba took a little longer to dry out.

                      It usually seems you (manitoba) seed into June.

                        You are right, last couple of years have been dry in our area. Of course tomorrow we could drown. It seems there is no in between. Traveling 20 miles south it is saturated , 20 miles east it is saturated.

                          My rain gauge said 2" and neibour said 3"..Looks more like 3" as water is filling sloughs. South Regina
