Rain, Rain

[tweety]

SF3, you've got about an inch more rain then most.

But the ignorant prick says all western canada normal .
Again I am glad they are in a sweet spot , they had a tough go , but to call this weather pattern normal - s/f has just lost all credibility with me - that's just fukin stupid
99% of us know you where far far too wet - you told us every fukin day - some of us including me seen it first hand - I drove through your area the last two years - that was terrible - but your holier than thouw attitude is fukin sickning at this point .
Do you know that leaf hoppers are already in mass in your area ? Not wishing ill on anyone but don't bark too loud - it's only the second inning . ...

Environment Canada shows an odd phenomenon. Sort of looks like clouds coming down from the North, The Great White North.

Furrow why so pissed at me. Im just saying whats happening in our area. Yes its been 8 years of pure hell. When you plant only to have it die from excess water year in year out a year with not much moisture is kind of exciting. I don't wish harm on any farmer out their but gee why cant we get a break once. If you have 8 droughts in a row call we can discuss how well the fed program worked for you and how crop insurance deals with you and how you get to a point you just want to quit.
Have any of you never received rain till farm progress show in the entire time you farmed. Have any of you had to reseed and grain is sitting in dust and then finally it rains July 1 sty or 3rd.
My point being yes the dry area is getting a little bigger than I ever though and it looks really bad. But 8 to 10 years of excess water for one area was not normal. That's all Im trying to point out. Yes 80% of you on here made out like bandits with great prices and high yields that most never seen before and we got shit all and missed the boat.
So yes I as a farmer never like to see other areas get F$%Ked but really cant it just be our areas turn for some good fortune.
Mother nature can F%^K up our area real fast also.
Yes your right I'm strong spirited and tell it like it is. But Crop experts and Chem and fert and Seed still cant grow without water.
So lets quit arguing and I hope every one gets a good No great crop because its sure would be nice.

In central Alberta I would describe the conditions as hot and dry. I do find your pissing matches amusing but the fact is pastures are burning up and the crops need rain.

[grrrr]

SF3-Last year you whined and complained that no one had it as bad as you. Too wet. No crop. All is lost. On and on and on. Then you admit that your canola ran 32bu/ac. You lost all credibility in anything you say. You bring it on yourself. Tell it like it is? B.S.

[farmaholic]

Maybe 32 bu/ac is a wreck for SF3?

[SASKFARMER3]

No 12 or 18 is a wreck! Losing 1000 s of acres you seed spray and Fert due to flooding that gives you no cash that's a disaster! Drought is a disaster! But to those who think the floods never happened grow up they did and it killed lots of great farms!

[T.N.T.]

We all know the flooding happenned,a lot of us experienced it maybe not as badly as your area did,but a lot of us experienced lost acres after all the inputs were put into the crop.How many billions of dollars do you think the ranchers and cattle farmers lost over 10 years how many of them were forced to sell there farms and ranchs a lot more then those flooded acres did,do you still hear them complaining about bse or read about it daily on the computer?We've moved on with life and played that hand for 10 years,but were not going to dwell on what happenned in the past,we made it and were some of the thankful ones that did.My advice to you sk3 is get over it and be thankful your still farming,if you can't then get help.Your the one that always says it's only farming,family is what matters.

[riders2010]

Interest rates the fertilizer dealers charged killed many farms, why there wasn t something done about the gouging was unbelievable. legalized theft.

[furrowtickler]

So have droughts and hail , but we will give you the red ribbon for first place on the all time disaster list - cause at the end of the day that's what your lookin for - good luck this year we all hope you get a great crop
I will leave this alone now - until you start chirpin about normal western canada 2015 weather - then it's game on - stick to your comments about your local area - they are somewhat informative as are everyone's here

[SASKFARMER3]

Ok ok you all win this years dry weather isn't normal! I'll quit saying its normal!
It's a dry year for everyone! It will be the year of the shower if you get one your a genius!
