Canola

Fungicide...

Did the peas. Will do the flax to keep it standing for straight cutting. Everything else will be going without.
Some wheat will already be in, or very shortly approaching, the "too late" stage but application timing would have been pretty easy because of pretty even staging. Canola canopy is a bit "airy".


Why "hour-up" a sprayer when I don't THINK it warrants it. Spend a bunch of money for no benefit. And select for fungicide resistance applying it when it really doesn't need it.

I've even taken the previous years' crop rotations into consideration.

Was looking at Twitter the other day and guys were posting pics of pallets of fungicide they took to the farm....should a guy post pics of the fuel truck when it fills up the tanks in the yard...definitely some real simpletons out there.

"Just spraying a little #mostexpensivefungicide, on our #latestgreatestvariety with the ol #brandnewhighclearance. #westcdnag #deere #chemproduct #livinthedream #agmorethanever #spray2019

Insert picture of pallet of the chem, new deere/patriot, new peterbilt and Denali 1/2 or 3/4 ton in the background by brand new shop with combines off in distance"

Basically ag Twitter these days...

It's all a big ego stroking competition, LOOK AT ME!!

I only do Agriville, that's enough for me and all I can take some days.

Tremendous variability here this year
This spring was very unforgiving, more so than I’ve seen in years.
Add that to some ineffective seed treatment and it has lead to some train wrecks.



Side by side , there is lots of this around
Establishment was critical this year in most areas

Any noticeable difference in varieties?
Our 7565 is doing real well compared to the newest and greatest truflex 92sc..

pioneer P501L did really well here

Lol , too bad for them ..
I feel sorry for ignorance like that.
A lot of areas have not had the rains or the crop to remotely justify an expensive fungicide or the cost of fuel and crop trampling .
Run that pencil with those factors on #$8canolie........

A few years ago the canola council had ads on radio with their agrologist saying if you didn't have at least 35bpa coming it wasn't worth spraying a fungicide....it wasn't canopied enough to justify....the air would get through it...

Never hear that anymore ...the masters didn't like the logic...

Don't remember his name nor if he works there anymore..

The good news is conditions were great this sping to pound the acres in fast. The bad news is most everyone including us pounded in the canola too early. The nicest canola by far was put in the last week of May. That canola dodged the frost and the flee beatle pressure. A shitty prize for those that finished seeding first. Seeding capacity can be a double edged sword.

How would a guy be able to go on twitter and say he is still seeding at the end of May...he would be ostracized unless he was re-seeding.....then he would be genius....

Night and day different here. 75-65 is ok but nowhere near the plant of the 92SC or 94CR. Have a couple other roundup varieties and won’t touch any of the dekalb. Combine tells in the end but all ours next year looking like 92SC.
