Central Peace.
Peas done, all good quality, greens and yellows, from 30 to 45 bu depending on showers.
Oats done, all milling, or pony 80 bu
HRWW, all prem, 50 to 60, took advantage of may long snow and rain, only real moisture till two weeks ago, since we have had inch and a half, still no worry about the ground carrying, ground still cracked up and hard.
HRS no worse than a 2, lots of good 1 before showers and rain two weeks ago, 25 to 45 depending on showers this summer and ground
Canola, started yesterday, 30 ish, lots of 15 and better in area, straight cut dessicated slow to mature, lots of guys waiting for green in swaths, very little dry coming off, terminals taking tough canola.
HRWW seeding. Done today, Enough moisture to germinate. Still very dry sub one inch. Could take 5 inches no problems.
Serious hay shortage, no carry over. Pastures poor, things are greening up but too late for signicant growth. 60 to 70 for hay bales, have waiting list.
Coming from an area that has suffered from many years of way too much rain, tracks and 4wd drive kits and driers are common, I feel your pain. I will not complain about our drought, third year in a row of way below normal rainfall, but in the end we may be the lucky ones. Good luck to all. Thanks for sharing the real story.
