Friday may 29

Farmzone has a low of 0. That is the one to watch in my opinion. Could. Swing higher or lower or disappear all together. Not much can do about it.

Drew's special statement for the weekend is dire re frost.

[SASKFARMER3]

Going to freeze all way from calgary to Kansas back up to Hudson Bay but markets are down I guess their always right

[jake550]

Not sure why that's breakin news. It almost hasn't stopped freezing yet.

If you don't want gamble even more, canola won't freeze in the bag seed on May 27! Could be reseeding happening right now! AB seeded in Apr, frost worse when dry.

Perhaps the message is to do nothing in pricing/marketing unless someone has a gun to head/you need to sell something to pay bills. Turn off the radio or fire up what ever music station relaxes you in the tractor/makes the day better. I would still have my target prices/ways of being informed but job in front of you is to get the crop seeded. Your concerns may be production risk (bigger impact on bottom line than price) - another reason to be patient in new crop marketing.

[Braveheart]

I agree Charlie. Patience is required

[hobbyfrmr]

Charlie,

Done.

[charliep]

hobbyfrmr. Good to be done.

Realizing that damage really isn't that visible until a few days a frost event, I would be watching the USDA crop progress and condition reports released every Monday. I suspect a lot of you will have your own sources of information including twitter contacts in the HRW areas but the USDA report is likely the most consistent source of crop condition information.

Charlie I think he is done turning radio up. Haha

[cottonpicken]

Pretty strange weather statement out of envio canada at four oclock

[seabass]

Ya cotton its gonna get interesting this weekend if it gets as cold as they say. Lots of canola up around here. Seed sales will be brisk next week!

[hobbyfrmr]

Hopperbin is correct. Charlie suggested turn off radio and find some more amusing sounds.

I Am just doing burn off. Burned off bolts for new culltivator shovels and today burning of them old dinasour bones from deep in the ground. (Diesel)

[Hopperbin]

Normal low for today in humboldt is plus 3 so a frost this weekend is par for the course. I think we should be more concerned about may 29. Mind you its two weeks away.

Thanks for the chuckles hobby.
