It's C02 that they are taxing, odorless, colorless, 0.4% of the atmosphere!

Several in NW sask are getting finished. We finished last Sat only because we dried 3/4 of the crop. Paid thousands in CO2 tax -which is basically theft by our fed govt to rebate to city and wage people. It’s insane. And what is the alternative? Wait it out as some have done and might get it dry as pretty good stretch of weather right now. Others binned or bagged tough hoping it holds til the terminals can take it with huge drying charges applied.
If the libs get in again, their plans to escalate the CO2 tax will kill our economy.
Never since Trudeau senior has the west been more mistreated. It has to change.

Back to crop report. Best wheat here is a 2 and down from there. Anything swathed is feed. Yields about average
Canola good quality again about ave yields spotty hail dropped some fields. Standing canola has been very slow to get ready. Spraying did nothing. Swathed canola in the bin 2 or 3 weeks ago and standing just going now still not dry and 600 hp combines going 2 mph. Some years it works great-this was not one of those. Peas and lentils off before shit weather-good yield and excellent quality.

No profit on really any crop as prices sit now. There has to be an adjustment coming. No one needs a calculator to figure that out.

Here in West Central Sask, we missed the snow and not alot of rain this fall, lots of tuff canola coming off and some guys are sitting waiting for dry.i know, I think theyre crazy also.point is, stuff is not cooperating even under good conditions, throw in a rain or fog every second day has to be discouraging to say the least.c cousin west of Lloyd same conditions as you saskfarmer rain every day. Frustrating but we still have time. Rosalie from CBC radio calls when things turn rough in our area and she asked when does it get really stressful, I said November 7 th. Hopefully it holds out till then at about 60% done.

I’m east of Lloyd and today was supposed to be 14 and sunny. Cloudy and drizzle instead. I’m just about done but most guys need at least a week if not 2. Brutal. Standing wheat starting to sprout. Heck I swear the standing oats I’m waiting on are too.

[SASKFARMER]

I agree on the adjustment.

Also the straight cut canola some years it works some not. It’s a tool that I won’t give up.

Finished the last of the soybeans today before dark
A few potholes to do tomorrow.
Never had to dry a bushel. Got rid of any canola over 10. Anything left in bins is dry and cold .
Got some wheat at 17 , most 16 or less .
Was not fun but it’s off. Average yields at best in this small area, much higher west and north west.
North and east of here is not good . Lots of frost damage and extremely variable yield due to that August 18th ish frost . Some 10 bus / ac canola
West and NW of here they should be extremely grateful. Every other direction from here is not great at all. Some green canola fields still out
We ended up ok only because of a lack of rain actually during the growing season. Yields were down but we got it off because of accelerated maturity. Not great but we will take it.
Soybeans took a frost hit and a few acres of canola. But overall I guess we were lucky , if lucky means the top of the shit pile this year .
Good luck to anyone still trying to get er done and make a living doing this crazy thing we call farming 👍👍
