Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[WiltonRanch]

Drove through you area Wilton yesterday on way to get tractor rims from Gratton Coulee . Things look good through your area. But ya can tell you had some heavy rains through there a while back.
Came back through Lloyd . Still lots of water there and I hear a lot more last night in areas there .
We got nothing here at farm but rains were circling all around .
Through out that whole trip I never seen more than a 1/2 dozen peas crops that are not in big trouble .
Best crops in the CutKnife area .. again , good soil and adequate rains . Those are some of the best I’ve seen anywhere.. hands down

CutKnife crops looked fabulous right from the start. Some nice country through there. Lots of washouts after the big rain. Some canola got beat up and covered with dirt.

Wow thank God we were definitely getting close to needing a good rain. 1 inch over two hours

We're so happy for you - your crops were obviously really withering in the hot dry conditions. HGAFC.

Grass you know how to piss on a guys parade.

Your smart enough to know that plants growing that nice need a rain every 10 days to two weeks and we’re right at the two week mark, so yea not drought but definitely would be going backwards if it didn’t arrive.

In the dry circle ,south of the cutknife area.last rain was
2 tenths 2 weeks ago. Good land is hanging on.
Light land going back fast. All you have to do is look at the canola from the road to see who has had a rain in the
Last 3 weeks. The good land could hold on another week.
But after that , depends on the temp. yield losses
Are gonna add up fast

Some good rains west yesterday west of Edam 9/10, south to Highgate 1.2 , just Sw Battleford 5/10 to 8/10 .
Got 2/10 on some land west on HWY 4 last but 90% of this area got nothing really.
Critical weekend, time , for needed rains .
This one was a yield setter if you got it.
After this last week of heat you can see severe stress already on ridges and light spots on early crops .

Grass you prove every day why you have no idea how crops grow in Canada. I stated if we don't get this rain the heavy crop will start going backwards. It's because the plant needs major water now to push heads bolt etc.
To those who got the rain, I think we lucked out. It's farming in Western Canada this is a reality in dry years one shot and you look like a hero. Miss one rain and what happened.

Yesterday's rain was weird one area it was over in a few mins. Next, it lasted an hour or two.

Good luck to all as it is a rain event day again.

Heading north to Stoon so will be interesting to see what the crops look like that way.

[SASKFARMER3]

Yea furrow that would be a fun one to own or even just drive. Lots of stuff out there.



Maybe after the A and D are done a 6030 or 5020 like the following. They never came from the factory this nice.

Big rain yesterday 2.7 inches very welcomed and thankful.

Meanwhile in what is supposed to be the wettest spot on the prairies, we can't buy a rain. Lots in the forecast, but not much comes out of it. Drove to elevator yesterday, poured rain most of the way there and back, nothing at home. Was supposed to rain for days a week ago, got 2/10 out of about 10 little showers. On most of our ground, this isn't a problem yet, but have added some lighter soil in recent years, and it would appreciate some moisture soon. I think we've had over 3" total this spring.
