    So far ... like I thought

    Yeilds in this area are all over the place. Peas 10 - low 50's. Wheat v -good. Canola I have heard 20's to low 50's.
    Harvest is like an old B/S engine here, run for a bit then quit. North West of here crop quality is taking a beating with high winds and rains every 2 days. Sprouting and mildew will be showing up in cereals in those areas. Showers off and on for the next three days yet.

    Furrow i talked to family member in Wakaw
    and they said its just every other day a
    rain. The wife cant even get to the garden
    to dig potatoes. Dont need that.
    Also heard from a friend in Humboldt that
    things are all over the place.

      That is how it is here in east central AB
      SF3. Just canola cut with some peas done.
      So far, 1 day we got to harvest. And the
      wheat was 16. This morning if it was sunny
      we may be able to go this afternoon with
      the stripper header, but its dark and
      cloudy and looks like rain. Hopefully
      things change.

            Combine swathed wheat Sat at 16%, then 2/10" by 2 pm. Swath last canola Sunday, combine wheat again yesterday. Dried down from 16.5% to 14.7%, cloudy this morning and shitty forecast! Go stop, go stop, lots of fun.

              Did some barley and it suprised me went around 70 and 54lbs i think the fungicide helped it. Started cps wheat looks like around 60, ten bus short of what i usually get but for this year not bad. Canola remains to be seen the wind raised hell with the swathes yesterday definatly some loss there, swath looks like 40bus but im sure its not there.

                  Wheat sprayed with Caramba at flag leaf 58bus, strip not sprayed 49bus. You can still see the strip in the stubble. Not sprayed was lodged and dirtier sample as well. HRSW
                  Doing canola check strips in a day or two depending on the shitty forecast.

                    Top dressed HRSW with 60-0-0-20 at 2ltr /ac (about $3ac) we gained about 1% protien so that paid as well.

                      Only pay if it brought your protein up from 12.5 to
                      13.5. No payment for protein above 13.5.

                        most liberty canola here is full of cleavers.

                          liberty is actually 12.00/lb as there is at least 20% cleaver seed included. (Its alright I guess, it helps stretch the seed supply a bit for the company?) That is maybe the reason they made the spray a bit cheaper so it is our fault if we don't spray twice....or three times???

                            Combine tough wheat all day with 60% humidity and threatening clouds till 10pm then more F@#^&*ing RAIN! Real dry now!
                            Would rather pray for than curse all this crop /soil/spirit killing rain/water!
