    Devasting weekend?

    So from snow to rain it has been a wild weekend in the western prairies. South of Winnipeg places are approaching 10 inches for the week. Emerson Saturday pm 6 inches one down pour. Sask3 re the guy in Calgary - do not care how many acres of canola are planted. Those number may be changing by the hour as I bet a lot of it is sitting under water right now or even snow. Will be a lot of damage and reseeding might be on the minds of some farmers. If it stops. For those who have not seeded - you are not any further behind than some of us that planted. Just wondering how the weather has been in your areas this weekend. As for the fog and days to rain. In my area it has been almost to the day. Much more to come in June if this pattern continues. May need some current plans for an ark.

      How does that make your plans work out?

      I have not seeded in over a week and its looking terriblly late for what I have left to do.

      Does it pay to make equipment payments and then pay to have custom seeding done?

        My theory is that since almost everyone in western canada is now direct seeding and when a system comes from the west over the rockies-it is now picking up alot more moisture from the evaporation of the more moisture that the ground now carries and when that system hits sask. it has to unload on us! Just a theory? Any rebuttles?

          I have always used custom operators as surge capacity.Our land won't carry ground equp. Its going to sound like world war 3 this week-I've called in the air force to spray the whole farm.

            Thats gotta cost alot?

            With prices where they are does it pay?

            And can you get all the resources you need when everyone is behind?

              $8/ac is better than having an out of control weed growth that is sucking N,P,K and S by the minute.
