Monday morning drivearound

[beaverdam]

Noticed this morning on a drive into town, large areas of lentils turning yellow. I guess disease from underneath has made it through to the top growth now. Also roots rot in peas.
Insane rain, showers nearly every evening(not a large amount to measure, but makes the crop soaked overnight, plus the daytime humidity, crazy high. Everything is wet till noon. SE Sask

Yup on the peas. They were pretty healthy until the third week in June when the rains came. Starting to see the above ground symptoms now.

Damned if it rains damned if it doesn't.....when it comes to peas and root rot.

That's the reason we stopped growing peas. White mold, root rot. Would look awesome until the first good rain, then start to thin out. Yellow in lentils in low spots but I also see yellowing in spots where water didn't sit, so more likely root disease of some type.

Took thirty mile local inspection tour, canola crops have filled in amazingly, only the very odd one not full yellow as seen from road.
Most cereal fields also looking good and even flax looking not too bad.
Rains have been about right, any more would be starting to fill sloughs and raise water table on lower ground.
After two years of record yields, looking like might be third one coming but too soon to make predictions.
After being in crop insurance and agristability from start, not sorry. Hope local growers do not become overconfident and drop out of risk management programs.

I think you need to get out more... work in belle plain and yes gorgeous crops not that far out and it's more like 100's of miles of shit after that. farm by kenaston and it's not looking good... yes there are a few nice crops but many many many more poor ones
