Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[Partners]

Not sure how big of a area..we got 1.2 inches in a few minutes last night..just a wall of water came down..

Well got to other side of valley, radar showed shower for 1/2 to 3/4 of hour-and it’s a useless 1.3 mm or just like a heavy dew. Useless!

Here is sand ridge for big zee

1.3" 2-6 am, wind hard rain, crops lodging. Hail N of Archerwill, only 4/10" E of Archerwill. Again extremely variable, 1/2" in Wadena.
Yes saw winter scene of hail on highway in BC. Burned patches in crops, early barley has the most. I would say the later seeded if they make it by Aug 31 will be the best crops here. Some canola only half bloomed. Forecast chances of rain next 4 days, yup it's the calendar flip that causes weather to change?

Might as well use an ole L2 Gleaner no need for big hp this year.

[SASKFARMER3]

Yep that’s dry!

Yield percentage less than last year and 10 year average.

My guess is 15 bus to 20 less than last year

And 25 to 30 bus less than 10 year average.

Most who have a crop aren’t 20 bus over last year or 70 to 80 bus an acre

So two posted companies stating yield are full of shit.

Oh how many posts from friends harvesting happy and bragging cricketers

My soybeans have roots 11 inches straight down....is that a good thing?
Just pulled a plant and thats where the root broke...

Nodulation is very good ....

some have told me I have compaction issues in the field....I think not.

Dam rights that’s good 👍

Mine broke off as well , those buggers are great for the soil

We are sitting at just 4.2 in since May on most of the farm , about 1/2 of normal
Beans about 5.5 in , the closer to HWY the higher the rain fall , west of HWY 4 the more it gets .
Lashburn area up to 15 in or more from what I’ve heard

Anyone from the Vegreville area ??


Seen this picture yesterday, but not 100% sure it was Vegreville.

Don't think so - looks more like the big storm they got on hwy 22 SW of Calgary by Longview.

Crops here look good considering the yr we've had. Got statement on moisture defficeny
May actual 9.70 normal 50.72 MM
June actual 55,60. Normal 87.32
We have got more in July but for some the damage was already done. According to my figures 100 mm normal for July is 90mm.
The rain was spotty like a hail storm, like it would stop on a fence line and hit again somewhere else crops are late here but grass seems way ahead like its browning off. Won't be any 2nd cut this yr.

Got an inch out of the blue last night. Too late for early crops, but will help green oats and canola at least fill what is there. Very glad to have got that rain.

Still be below average crop here. If the rain had come three weeks ago, it woulda been a monster.

At least 15”. Kinda in a sweet spot. May was brutal dry but started raining in June so been fortunate.
