MB is F****ed

[Klause]

Our crops are toast in MB. Some fields water end to end. 6' deep in places :'(

[boarderbloke]

when did this happen, did you get a storm last night?

[freewheat]

Sorry to hear that Klause. How the heck
are you doing!!!????

How is your stuff out here in sask? I
went for a long extensive look last
night. Unless a miracle happens, it will
be a banner crop insurance year yet
again. Saturated soil, thinning crops. I
would say 25-35% is out and out drowned.
That alone is a big yield reduction.
Probably another 25% is suffering
visibly. Another 20% I presume is
invisible suffering right now, leaving,
what? 20-30% that is half normal?

Sickening.

Hope your doing alright, good to see you
on here!

[sawfly]

we are not there yet , but we are working on it.

how much and how widespread.
when you plow that much money into it.
not a good feeling

looks like Rosetown is getting it now.
they have to be hurting there too.

forecast here for 10-20 mil today

on some land had another .7 to ?.
with hail yesterday. (afraid to ask or go look ) on top of 2.9 on top of 2.4, on top of the normal rains before last week.
the rest is about an inch behind
kind of a local thing around here.
some one else can have some 2 inchers for a week or two

I started spraying my canola today. Pretty slippery out there, more water than looks from road. We need to miss that rain forecasted for tonight here.

Tried to spray liberty on last early field.duals work
great just have to slow on corners. And water. We
get any more rain we will have less acres than
last year. Peas nice yellow. Hrs Bly and oats

[cottonpicken]

Sask,how is your dual kit working out?

Do you just add a set of narrows to the back?

Would you could you do this on a 4710?

[hedgehog]

northern hemisphere is flooded, and southern burning up, its mad.

[RD414]

We put duals on the back of our 4830. they are both 380's and it worked excellant. Still leaves ruts but haven,t been stuck since we put them on

[SASKFARMER3]

Its a kit I got from Greentrac. Bolt on
adapter to floater tires. Then bolt on
your incrop skinny tires, drop air
pressure to 25 and increase floater tire
air pressure to I think 44. Havent been
stuck since. Have to slow down for water
and corners its a huge rototiller. But man
can it go through stuff. Move the fronts
to 144 on slide and backs right in. Then
the front runs between the duals.

[SASKFARMER3]

Ours is on the new 4830 but I think I
would add it to a 4710.

The Red River Valley is not all fine. North of the #2 highway it is wet. South of is better. Some areas the yield will be capped at the next heat wave when we start seeing dieback from all the water. Crops are yellowing north of Winnipeg, and directly west. Beans are comming down with iron chlorosis. It will still be a better crop than either 2010 or 2011 though, but that is not saying much. Most of my neighbours are cash broke, and it is time, right now, to quit raining. By the way, it is sprinkling right now. It just won't quit.

This is the view from 25 miles west of Portage and Main.

This is a field of oats.

I"ll post a few more pics.
