Let's all up the acres on the Retarded sister!

IF, it turns out dry, storing grain will be extremely profitable! Ask me again in October.
Two great crops to move will kill 2015 also.
Roll the dice boys, do you feel lucky?
Was that 6 shots or 5?

Still not ready to bet the farm but soy will
eventually replace some canola acres. 3 years no
failure! Do better in wet years than peas. Will
replace peas very soon in our area. Canola was
great but grain companies, seed companies etc.
ruined a good thing. Watch wheat will see the
same faith!

Quit canola 3 years ago not going back. We have done better every year with soy. Much tougher plant than canola, oh did I mention better risk reward? Some growers have a problem with canola,the weed, control, but we did not get into full RR canola.

[farmaholic]

agstar. Where are you faming?

[Hopperbin]

Manitoba somewhere. I guess you have not "bean there done that" haha

[agstar77]

We have been in the 35 to 45 range for three years
.Learning more about beans every year. Varieties
are getting better less heat dependent. Grew canola
since day 1, yields never reached the highs .
Actually seemed to have regressed in recent years
under stress. We are North of the trans Canada.

Depends on your area and heat units . In our area
Beans are a few years away from even romotely
replacing canola - maybe some other crop but not
canola .
Last year Canola 50 to 60 - beans 25 ish

[SASKFARMER3]

Beans minus cost at 3 dollar premium vs crazy
expensive canola at nine. If 50 is 10 year average
then you win! But some years when it's hot in
flowering and hot at end of filling (pepper). Soy
with lower cost per acre vs canola might win!
Varieties are getting better in soy canola flat to
dropping!
Just saying very expensive canola vs soy, soy
might eventually win out! Not their yet but it beats
peas this year hands down!

[furrowtickler]

Again - depends on the area . Peas ran huge
numbers here last year $300 /ac more than any
soya bean crop.

[SASKFARMER3]

Furrow peas at over 8 x 50= 400
Soy at 25 x 12.50 = 312
Peas at 6 x 50 = 300
Soy at 25 x 12.50 = 312
Canola at 25 x 9.60 = 240 because even if it's dry
they will say the carry is so huge we can only pay
that till the carry is gone. Bang cAnola is dead!
