Well late last night we finally got to a 1/3 done. Doing the hailed out three fields, not fun not fun at all. Travel with hydro full out slow for water running then giver again. Cant use cart in fields since their are three streams 3ft wide running through the half section.
So far her is a sum of what we found.
Durum Great yield but quality is shits grading poor 3 to lower.
HRS done yield good but not like some liquid fert fields in area on pea stubble one might make 70 no kidding Ill get pictures you judge. Grade any thing off early will grade a 2 now three.
Peas ours averaged not that bad given the year with hail flood etc. But this was do to the fact 3 of our 6 yielded awesome then take out hailed out and flooded and you get average. Their are at least 2000 acres around me of peas that farmers have abandoned and are leaving for the geese. Their to wet, regrowing and worthless.
Canola funny to harvest hill tops look at monitor and its saying stupid numbers then as you start to drop elevation to next hill it goes in the other direction and fast hits 3 to 6 and then heads back up. Unfortunately in our area with gently rolling their are more flat than hilly so yield is shits. Their are some nice crops but it depends on seeding date, hail, amount of rain at flowering and fert method. By far this year liquid fert out performed anhydrous, and granular plus floating fert. Pig shit is OK.
Will hit barley on sat and then oats Monday. Funny oats at 120 and $4.00 will probably be my highest valued crop. Go figure.
On Durum and HRS I will be taking samples to ND later this winter and see what they think its worth then maybe a run at border? Winter in Jail or Mexico or Hawaii or Florida. I say Jail but wife says no way. Have a safe time pulling out equipment, one guy west of us had a chain break and go threw the window of tractor. No injuries just scared shit-less. So be careful the Crop isn't worth dying over.
