Rain just in time or to late!

Should have enough head for 30 wheat 40 barley. Peas 10 - 25. Canola just full bloom now.
Roots out of gas. Need rain to fill.
How much rain will we need next year with sub soil depleted?
Young guy finds hard to believe we farmed corner to corner not that long ago. Takes years of this to get to that.

Way too late for those that missed the showers all spring. Pathetic spindly canola cannot use it efficiently, short heads on wheat with unpollinated flowers is done.

The guys who got the showers will be ordering more grain bags.

Way too late for our wheat. Canola and beans will love it. We have some reseeded barley that will slurp it up.

I think bins will be on sale.

Local coop has 125 5000 bushel bins built on spec. And a 10 bpa area crop develops. I think they too are hoping for a tornado. To birthday that built is expensive.

99 percent of the guys here won't be short bin space.

Still SFA at Perdue and Cando. Parts of the farm got an inch west of Battleford. At this point the rain will help fill what potential there was left. Everything looked good in yellow last week but it's thin once you get into it. My organic crop planted the first week of June will still benefit. Finally enough moisture to get some plow down crops in the ground. As for the rest I would like to order 6" of golf ball size hail please.

If your asking for hail like that why worry about a plow down.

Kill two birds with one stone.

35 mm total yesterday water sitting water table back to what it was in spring!
We need heat and lots of it to push this one along but frequency of rain is increasing!

[freewheat]

If you need heat to push your crops along, SF3, we need an oven. You guys are WAY ahead, I am surprised at what guys worry about. I guess I am used to long, late maturities.

That was funny.

I'm just saying as long as it stays hot and warm this crop will move right along! That would be perfect! But we farm in canada nothing is perfect!

Bucket, I've been burning diesel and wearing out iron all summer (ok only 6 days) trying to get the quack and thistle in check. I think I'm winning now so it's time to plant some peas.
