WTF is the only way to describe the events up to last night.
Rain Rain Rain. Week total is 2.2 inches and yesterday we had weather warnings in afternoon that thank god missed us.
Most are in the final days of spraying. Spot spraying and final Round up on Canola and Beans.
Disease control at flag is happening on only a few farms. Custom guys still spraying in the wind but their answer is we have to go. Lawsuit would stop this BS.
Hrs still all is looking awesome. We wont have the cleanest fields like other years as flush after flush of weeds keep coming. Hopefully the thick crop will choke most out. Its a 9.
Soy Rows are seen and Germ was excellent two inches tall and Growing. Spray last application of RR at 1 liter today. 9
Canola the Retarted sister is struggling this year. Even the Experts in the district don't have Awsome fields. Yes they have picked up on some this week as finally the temp has improved. Still others fields have dropped do to flooding and yellowing. Most are at Cabbage or Bolting. 7. would be a 8 or nine without the patchy fields or yellow flooded out areas.
Barley is a 9 every one who did grow barley is really happy happy happy. Leaf disease has been just applied.
Peas don't like to get their feet wet and well lets just say they had a rough week. Yellow areas where we were flooded last year. To much ground water. Might make it through if it turns hot and dry. Forecast is looking better for the next 7 days lets see. 7 Drop due to wet water damage.
oats is looking good but very few fields. No one really changed their seeding plans. its a 8.
Flax our area I think has more flax than Canola some days. Flax all over the place. It is looking good but has some yellow areas due to water. Canola canola canola guy has hardly any canola this year.
So to sum up the week water water water. Rain events since last Thursday have hit the area hard. Water was running down the highway at e
Edgeley yesterday night. Most crops disease pressure is low as of last night checking but it could turn high with all the moisture if it continues. Warm dry forecast could help in that department.
Have a safe holiday weekend. Good farming.
