Anyone ever cut canola as low as lentils up your way....

And 4 more carts and 10 semis....and an elevator that will take tough grain....why not just ask for a unicorn...

For feed wheat??????


Why not just say phuck it .....and do some required balancing for statscan....maybe they will stop the practice of borrowing from the next crop year....to deflate prices....

yea it will be interesting to see how the c#$ksuckers worm their way outta this one
course we will never know true numbers anyways
none of our buisness
canola yields were way down here
all i know is elevators here're offering "very special prices" of $9.50 to fill a waiting train and no-one comes
guess they don't know it all went to bunge for $10 two weeks ago

This idea that we had a surplus sitting on the farm was a made-up crock of shit.

Any farmer who didn't take the 10 in June or just a couple weeks ago is out of grain or ****ed in the head.

So when will reality hit?

THE MARKET KNOWS THE OLDEST LINE AROUND.

Sort of like a hooker is the oldest profession.

They **** us the hooker ****s us were all ****ed.

Skiff here in south regina and south of town. Most melted as it came down. Can see some bare ground. Seems like we dodged the brunt. Canola should still be standing I think. But fields are going to be wet.

Everything’s at a standstill here. Photos are more or less just what fell over night. Most snow is melting during the day.

Very similar pictures could be taken here....

Do you think anyone in any government will acknowledge the issue we are facing????

Where is Ralphie?????

Fort no snow raining

ILTA obviously phucked up because if they held on for 6 months there was a windfall coming in their market...

Current lentil prices have to take a 10 cent per pound jump....

Why? Isn't lentil harvest 90% or more complete?

It started melting as it first fell around here. Now seeing about 6 inches accumulating. Only half done and dried the last few days of grain combined.

What a country.

There’s a couple counties by Edmonton that have declared states of emergency because of the weather not allowing harvest, so yes, some in the government are acknowledging it.

Will someone in the higher levels acknowledge it? Who knows.

If they do, will any of their ideas be effective? Again, who knows.

Government acknowledgement and assistance would be nice but it’s hardly something our industry has come to rely on. What’ll appear first, decent harvest weather or government acknowledgement?

Yes , last year there was a lot . Hopefully you don’t have many rocks . The ground will have to firm up somehow or you will have to wait until the ground freezes if possible.
As much as it sucks you should go get a new spare feeder chain for the combine if you plan on still straight cutting . Unless you land rolled every acre at seeding .
Our wheat is half way flat already , if it goes down the lifters will go on the swather . I will not even try to straight cut flat wheat after last year . We gained 50% more time in the combine swathing ahead . The damage you will do to your headers and combines will not be worth it trying to straight cut flat cereals . Canola you may have no choice because of shatter losses .

Whoops!

Unity area ,looks like 3- 4 inches on a roof where has not melted as much .
Will not have to go far to see what is happening with
Standing canola and wheat.

Ground just white here.
Looking like '16 again.
Hoping we finish in November and done with drying by Christmas.

Only this time, 75% is laying out.
Canola dry in May I guess.

I actually miss the days when we didn't have long range forecasts at our fingertips.
More hope, less anger.

This wheat will not take much more , most likely be flat in 3-4 hrs if it continues to snow ..

The other field has more snow and is a lot lower to ground , not flat yet but will be shortly if snow don’t stop very soon .
