[SASKFARMER3]

We will start seeding on April 4Th. HA HA HAHA.
Tomatoes and Cabbage and Cauliflower for the garden.
What the rest of our farm has is two feet of snow over most of farm. Trees full and sloughs full of water from last fall. No stubble showing or black ground yet.
Seeding intentions lets discuss.

Canola 4200 which equates 400 over last year some new land and rotation.
HRS 3000 which is more than last year.
Durum 1000 which is 200 more than last year.
Peas 1000 up from last year
Barley 300 Same
Oats 500 which is Less.
So 10% more Canola
HRS 25% More
Peas 25% More
Durum Up 20%
Oats DOWNDOWN
Barley Down.
What are others doing.

I truly believe we will NOT be planting till May this year.

30%Canola
30%Soybeans
40%Wheat

Wheat will likely change drastically as our winter wheat took a real thrashing this winter....

Wheat will likely change drastically as our winter wheat took a real thrashing this winter....some of those acres may go to corn and oats.

dschill, what happened to the winter wheat, with all that moisture last fall and snow cover this winter I thought it would come through in flying colours?

Adjuster coming wed to inspect...We had 1 inch of rain in January followed by -30 period and then had another 1.5 inches followed by -20 period over the march break. This was on top of 20 inches of snow.... All our fields look like they have 18 inches of snow on them, but when you scratch through there is 4 inches of snow and 12- 14 inches of solid ice. I drove over an entire 160 the other day with my pick-up...was like driving on perfect highway. My CCA says wheat can stand this environment for a Max 14-20 days if young enough....its been 2.5 months so my experience tells me the writing is on the wall... insurance is good may as well use it....

[boarderbloke]

yes, I didn't recognize you were from Ontario. Sounds like planting will be late there too.
