Rain Report

[Flatlander]

Another 9/10ths. One farm at 9.15 other farm 6.25 since May 11 th. No, the lentils and peas did not shrug off the last several inches.

2 inches since the Thursday night storm, about 5.5" since May24th. Awesome! phenomenal growing conditions.

.10 here in the Unity area. Settled the dust

Another inch. Must be 6-7 since May long weekend but we were coming from a deficit. Low spots have water but we're in excellent overall shape. Most of the rain has been slow and steady.

How long can soybeans stay underwater?

[MBgrower]

Soybeans can sit in water longer than any annual crop i know, but do have a limit. If the water runs off in 5 or 6 days, and daytime temps arent too excessive, there will be little impact to yield. They tend to get stunted and will be shorter though. Ive had canola completley drowned out in low spots many times, but rarley do beans ever completley die in those same spots.

They are not out of ground yet?

4/10" we need more. The good news is I top dressed some N on my budding mustard the night before so hopefully it goes nuts now.

[farmaholic]

ado, you can almost see that shit grow. Did you put some sulfur with it too? I hope you hit a grand slam home run with it.

Old crop prices have fallen by about 25% ...down to about 45 cents. Probably close to what new crop contract prices.

Good luck

like the old saying....

It rained 40 days and 40 nights........(xxxxxx) got a quarter inch

[ado089]

I put another 4 lb of S on it along with 28 lb of N, poor man's agrotain. I'm up to 93-25-10-22 now. It crazy how fast that stuff grows. The neighbor was seeding canola across the road the same day, you can now just tell it's canola. The mustard pretty much has the ground covered and it's botling.

Ive seen soybean emerge from under water. Amazing plant.
