Frost in Europe!

[SASKFARMER3]

For the second time in 3 weeks, frost developed across much of Western Europe, threatening developing winter wheat and ****seed. Conditions were exceptionally warm from January to mid March, coaxing crops out of dormancy. The question is whether wheat and canola were far enough along developmentally to suffer from sub-freezing temperatures. Temperatures had been averaging mid and upper 40sF before 2 cold waves, the first in late March and again last week. Much of central and northern France and Germany were affected, key producing areas.
Now for Canada It snowed in Western Sask and Alberta. Seeding had started in some of these areas.
Next two weeks Cooler than we seen first two weeks of April.
Peas in ground better have seed treatment or they will have problems after sitting for two weeks in cold ground.
We will now be delayed from seeding this week to hopefully starting next Monday or maybe May 1st. That's in Eastern Sask.

Seeding down through the snow. Now that is truly a novel concept. What will modern AB ag think of nest, Bison farms, anyone want to boil an Ostriche, good fer ya. Lets all enjoy the fact that farmers around the globe are being froze out! In fact lets all try to take advantage of the situation. Isn't that what marketeering, is all about? Privateers are always looting. Otherwise, lets let them starve, that would be fun, lots of auctions to go to, farmers are bailing in our area, to heck with grain prices.........

Burbot, why are you even interested in Ag at all, maybe with your less than positive outlook you should bail as well save us your neg attitude.
SF - not a word about the freeze in the w/w are of the U.S. either??
Is this a run up in beans only to plow back into wheat for the bigs?
Cotton what do you think? I and most others value your oppinion.
