Break down of 10,000,000 Acreage not seeded!

Took a drive to Brandon yesterday and OMG what a mess. Unless heat comes immediatly there will be no bumper crop,no average crop, no production from low spots or runs. The hills are even yellow. Peas are the weirdest colour of yellow. You sure can tell who has not sprayed because of the ruts.June 10 and you cannot even row the canola.Winter wheat looks good,but very very few fields went in last fall.At best canola will be 2/3 to half the yeild of last year.

Whats everyones opinion on flax?I said to hell with
most of my lentils and jacked flax acres to 28%.

[SASKFARMER3]

Our area has a few acres but not as much as most years.

[furrowtickler]

Very little in this area. That might have been a very good move cotton.

[furrowtickler]

btw, cotton did ya spray the matador?

[SASKFARMER3]

Yea flax might be the sleeper in 2010. Good move.

Wind and rain are preventing me.

Phoned a local agrologist and he said he would be very
suprised if that was the case,but i'm going to take
your advice and not chance it .I'll have another good
look today and probably spray asap.

We are finding dimond back worms here as well. No real bug problem here for 5 years. Hopefully it does not become widespread - none of us needs to deal with this b/s this year.
