    Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

    This is one of the hardest Crop Reports I have had to write in my time on here.

    We did get to 72% done on late Saturday night. The rain got us as it warmed up for a bit then the snow came in Sunday till Tuesday was a snowstorm. Warming up today wow. Who cares.

    Most have crops out in our area with a few done. But very few. Hell, I have guys who have never ever had crops out with still 40% out. Some 50%.

    Dryers are going non-stop and everything is being used to heat or burn grain. Its a shit show from one yard to the next.

    We left the HRS because a 17.9 hrs now is same in spring and a three to a feed who the **** cares.

    Most concentrated on getting some canola. But some finished the wheat and just got into the canola. It's not good and snow and blowing snow didn't help. It's October for ****s sakes.

    But to all the climate change weird peoplekind.

    My dad said sometime in the 50s he had half the crop out all winter.

    I personally had a crop out three times, its a sick feeling you feel beat up so ****ing bad its not even explainable. The sad part we had 21 days to harvest this fall and used every single one. The dryer has not stopped yet here we sit with a million still in the field. What a country.

    Sask Crap insurance is smiling because guess what when its 74 wheat and the average for 100 years back is 44 at 70% your guarantee is 30 BPA. So even with half the wheat crop still in the field, we get no insurance. Our last year yield will be used in 2020 and this year will be 2021. Again tell me how crop insurance isn't a money maker. Canola is similar so no payment.

    AG stab haha hahaha oh I fell off my chair laughing.

    What pisses me off is Every one worries and cares about the middle man and the primary producer just keeps taking it and getting ****ed each year.

    Oh, Trudeau is a moron for hiring at probably 375000 with full benefits a liberal from Nova Scotia to help him understand western Canada.

    I can't believe how stupid this guy is and add in lazy.

    Stay safe because this shit hole crop is history and they are working overtime to get it for nothing.

      Well, if this is winter you can be proud you gave it your all!
      Nothing to feel beat up about, although the aches and pains from working too hard aren't going away for a while.

                      I concur....the caveat is November has 20 nice days....or government backs them ....The Sask AG Minister has already stated they are looking at the GARS model....

                          That sucks. Alberta is nov 15 for crop reports which most years is too soon

                            Dealing with wet and ugly grain here.


                            This wheat sat a little long on the truck. The fancy term is “steeping” I believe but it was more like hot moulding. Dryer is currently solving that problem.

                            Finished wrapping bales for the year yesterday which is nice. Down to 1500 bales or so to move which is nice except most of them are 20 miles from home.

                            Feeding some hot hay and it’s a hit with the pairs out on pasture yet before they move to the corn. Hopefully got another two weeks of grass yet as long as I can keep water flowing.

                            Lots of guys still going around here. Had one friend with 13% canola two weeks ago that I said better take it (he didn’t) and now he’s looking at 18% and not sure what to do. Told him we could do it in a month or so when our stuff is hopefully done. Anything resembling a dryer is roaring away in the countryside. Off to Red Deer next week to check out dryers (probably like everyone else) since our little one doesn’t cut it anymore.

                              Just to clarify.

                              You can pay a bit of interest and pay by March 31 if needed. No penalty other than cheap interest.

                              Also, declaring yields is not until November 15.

                              For those who may be panicking about this thread! Bigzee, you made me do a double take for sure.
