Yea that is total BS. Heat that we had for five days didn't effect yield.
Good one McLean good one.
Same old BS guys in office talking to CWB farmers that know nothing.
But why would I expect any thing to change.
Seems funny Canola stopping blooming after heat spell all over the place yet their will be no yield loss.
Friday crop report.
Durum proceeding along nice no 2005 crop but looks good. Fusarium threat is lower this year than other years but one week behind normal.
HRS looks good where didn't flood out it is one week to two behind normal need warm days and nights sure cooled off Wednesday night. Needed a hoodie on the deck.
Oats behind but coming on. Not best ever but its better than last years.
Barley looked good early on now see flood damage and will be average.
Flax fields look awesome but late.
Peas look good but water damaged areas from the farm progress show rains are gone.
Lentils don't have but neighbors are podding not bad.
Canola all over the place. Early is finishing flowering and will do very well. Middle seeded is sick and not impressed with heat and flood back in June took toll in each month.
Late if it makes it will be good also but its late.
Over all 10 bin bumper crop and zero a flooded out piece of crap for scale.
Crop of 2011 is a 7 but more heat like last weekend and it would drop to 5 real fast.
What are others seeing. OH yea one field of peas on high assessed flat ground pure shit need a huge hail storm.
