Where are all the grain bags?

[bigzee]

I used bags for 3 yrs no more. Built 235,000 bu grain storage this summer. Bags are temporary storage impossible to haul out of in winter. Push snow one day blizzard the next. Oh yeah then they tear, its an on going problem.

Craig,

How's harvest progressing? Are you having to go around many potholes or have they dried up? Whaet has been nothing special NE Edmonton, canola and barley surprising to the upside.

The deep South East corner of Saskatchewan may not agree but I suspect that eastern Saskatchewan and Manitoba are going into the late fall a lot better than a year. My memory is of the fall of 2010 is saturated soils and the prospects for another tough 2011 spring (came to pass). Going into 2012 (lots of things can happen), things are looking better. Comments from Alberta so need to be corrected if I am wrong.

We had the "harvest from hell" a year ago. Total 180 this year. No wet spots in any of the crops! Trucks went everywhere.
Sloughs are nearly all dry. Two more months of this weather and things will be looking great.
Subsoil still mud. Roads still soft!
The unseeded areas are all cat tails and weeds that need swathing and burning.
Yields average due to 10% lost to monsoon in June. Best soils were zero yields. Quality 1cwrs, malt, #1 canola.

West central sask biggest drum crop that most
guys have ever had bags every where Brant sold
out of baggers . Had one field under 60 with
some averaging over 75 and that seems to be
the norm here . I know that when an area does
have a poor year you can get the mentality that
it's everywhere but that's rarely the case .in 2002
never took combine out of shed and was tough to
hear of guys having best year ever but when
your having a good year usually it's at someone
else's expense . I will enjoy this year but know
that the next drought is only two weeks away .
