Do Flooded Areas Come back?

[SASKFARMER3]

Well yesterday sprayed 1200 acres of HRS and Durum and to all who said don't worry rain makes grain. Thanks for advise but realistically all flooded areas are now black or a sick yellow and are not coming back. With call for up to 3 inches more in next few days I believe maybe we all have been a little low in drowned out area. I'm figuring between 10 to 20 percent and it it does rain the 3 inches then the 20 will be where its at. Three quarters yesterday had close to 3 inches just last week and their are ruts up a mile and back.
Other thing I found is plants are all over the map from 6 leaf plus to 2 and sick yellow. Funny 1 quarter was burnt (not by me) and the HRS their is really nice. Oh well back on sprayer today.

I was scouting feilds yesterday and the drowned out areas are huge. Up to 50% on some fields and they wont recover. My best advice is on RR acres make your risk share claim before June 22 and get $12.50 acre back, this program is gooofy. You had to purchase weathermax by May 31 to quallify for riskshare. On cerial acres it is going to be ugly big patches with no crop. Ten million acres not seeded and four million under water.

Yes Breadwinner I was down on flat heavy ground yesterday spraying and kind of shocked for crop seeded in mid April. To 10th of may. Big ugly patches with more rain on way. Also water seems to be running all over the place even landscaped fields are extremely wet and don't cross area that was fence line that sprayed out sank a foot.

Yes, that would be the last nail in this crop's coffin! Seeded canola today, dusty hills with sloppy mud in between. Absolutely disgusting. The soil is all sticky muck under the surface. I wouldn't bet a nickel on the canola amounting to anything. Never saw this in my 35 years of farming! All volunteer wheat plants are yellow with disease. If this sh*t don't stop, there will be no crop here in 2010. 2011 is looking iffy also.

Spraying crop today. Flat land very disapointed. More water damaged than I thought. The hilly land is better than I thought. Canola seeded in April on rolly land very good. My crop got smaller after last rain and now calling for a big rain tomorow. Not good.

[SASKFARMER3]

Regina is calling for up to 50mm that would definitely fruck up the year. What seeded so far is now in trouble. Sorry rain doesn't make rain after a foot in one month.
