Is weather market 2018 over?

[fjlip]

RAIN makes GRAIN is all the market knows...90% of time it does, any drown outs are usually shitty yield areas anyway. We seeded all the acres but RARELY combine those few too low sump holes that a excessive rain runs off into. Oh ya V-ditching makes for more drown outs, landscaping works all year. Obvious here now.

Some received a 1 mm others 1/2 east side good rain to excess and the experts think we have a bumper f$& k me.

No mention just plus 2 sat morning

we didn't get any rain here, and soon the crops will start to yellow and dry up, but from looking at various farmer twitter feeds, there are lots claiming awesome crops elsewhere Markets are heading downward until something substantial changes the crop outlook.

It rained enough places to get another bumper crop..
Some not enough..some way to much..the market says tuff nuggies..

NE sask we have lost 25% of seeded acres due to flooding. Very disappointing. We never were dry here.

It's great that you all got all the rain you were asking for. Congratulations. Unfortunately, there's some areas here in Alberta that have seed stranded in dust after a comically bad, disastrous, disappointing May. Hay crops are as bad as I've ever seen at the beginning of June, and stories of neighbors having to get rid of cows in panic selling.

It's even better to see the markets dropping due to everyone claiming how great the crop is gonna be and outlook for more rain. (I know traders don't need an excuse to tank the market by now). Good luck to those who still need it.

Farmers don't have to profess a thing.....this isn't 1930 anymore. The all seeing eye knows....

I could say nothing about what is happening in my backyard and with all the above technology they have a better handle on the big picture than the little snapshot of my situation.... professed truthfully or deceitfully by myself....it doesn't matter.

Where you at Silverback? We could use some water around Olds/Didsbury area mostly for hay and grass but sounds like you might be in bigger trouble. May sure was hot and dry by AB standards. Have a few showers moving through this evening, hoping for something substantial.
