Im thinking like big lentil. I have guys with out dryers that think aeration at this time of year will keep the crop, it might but try getting it out of the bottom as it cakes and clumps and well its a fracking mess. Then the stories of if you guys are going it must be dry. Yea after the dryer.

But all the remainder might have to be dryed and here is why. Swaths are wet standing has lodged areas that are wet and you still have spikes in crop where moisture hits 18 or 16 or 14 even if it is 11 so tell me how that will keep in a bin.

The market is nuts with hopes and dreams.

One the yields are not as big as they were yapping all year.

two the crop has gotten smaller after the rain and snow than it was before.

three lots will not make it till January let alone December. Even some of our dried might have issues. its a gamble you take.

This baby isn't even close to be done.

Short days hell the sun drops at 5 by 5:30 its gone and in morning dew or frost or just wet because the ground it so wet.

Why do the make it sound like its lucky charms Magically its harvested.

Oh checked they are buying dried canola. Why not the grain companies didn't have to do sweet F$%K all and its dry.

SF3,
I'm trying to tweak my sales plan. your operation seems to be the only one rolling. What, if any, drop in yield have you experienced over the past month?

Harvesting canola at twenty or less you throw some out probably 3 to 5 then like swimming in a cold lake shrinkage!
Then snow wind and ice!
Plus one sunny day doesn't mean it's ready!

They predicted a cloudy day in Regina, I don't see any clouds yet. Sunday will be dry as pie!

Have you checked? The guy with PLUGGED concaves said HALF going out the back so he is waiting, yes 4 hours per day, slow going too, but only do what dryer can do, IT WILL NOT STORE. Take care, good luck, could be near dry in a week.

14 left almost at ten my magic number.

Two combines going in swathed Canola fields today. One was testing 12 but he has so many acres to go that he has to go. Seems some prediction for possible moisture on Tuesday but I don't see it on Environment Canada.
