    We have been boarderline here , canola showed some stress last year on a few fields , wheat was fine but peas took er in the chin. Not all peas though - tilled fields , loam soil, canola stb, were better in general.
    One field I talked about before was very interesting - winter wheat stb was ok, hrsw stb was fuked -same field, same fertility, same rotation for 8 years , same herbicides.

      Fall tillage on heavy cereal stubble in wet years definitely dries the ground up compared to no till seeding operations. This is coming from someone who does not like tilling. If you drive around now as the snow is melting you can pick out the fields that have some form of tillage compared to ones that are undisturbed. The tilled ones have less less snow and they dry up faster. Spring tillage is a different monster depending on the weather after.
      Anything you can do to help the crop or fool the crop to grow through wet conditions is a huge plus. Seed treatments or micros can help this. Strobe fungicides are also good for this.
