Canola Report.

Red River Valley. So far some of the best crops in a
long time. Heat is a concern. And we need rain very
soon. Canola is flowering and does not like the 30 plus
temperatures.

Redbaron, it looks like you may get a good
splash tonight. GL

Newsflash, canola doesn't due well in wet
conditions!

As we didnt get any crop seeded last year to speak of every thing is on fallow. The fields worked last year with a cultivator to dry them out faired way better this year than the chem fallow that didnt get worked. Even stuff agressivly heavy harrowed pre seed helped with even germination. These fields hadnt been worked with a cultivator in 25 years. I have never seen the canola cabbage like it has this year. L150 looks best so far,just got it sprayed with proline.

Also canola bolting without a lot of leaves.
Best crop is conventional tilled, air seeded and harrow packed.
Mainly poor areas due to torrential downpours. Concrete hard dried areas.
Variety of stands most thin and uneven are wherever excess rains occurred.

Highly variable anywhere is Sask. Yields will range anywhere from 10 - 60 at this point.
