Well its a Zero Rain event for us and thank god things are maybe working out this year.
April was awesome to harvest and we finished last years crop in April. Still, guys are harvesting the other afternoon, but it looks like Eddy Match is being now used as guys are just done with harvest 2019.
So as of Tonight, we will be at 53% Done. Our area has had a good run from here to the valley. South of the valley is a little further ahead but really not much different timing this year. Now north of us all way up to 16 highway is behind that number.
Burning is taking place and because of the tough harvest, last fall not a lot of fall work was done. Everyone has either a cult, protill, Lemkin, or kelly out and then every harrow from old diamonds all way up to the big Degelman is going in front of the drills.
Eddy match is the choice of lots, but with the stupid winds that option is very limited. One Calm day and you thought we had a forest fire close with all the smoke.
Pastures are starting to grow and leaves finally are coming out.
Now here is a new one for us, Rural Crime is on the up. That's one you really don't want and it is gaining. Two nights ago anhydrous tank got hit. But the stuff they took was really nothing. Neighbours abandoned yard had some damage. This is Trudeau's Liberals love a thug. Garbage is also getting dumped on side of the road.
Crops of choice in our area this year are Peas, Lentils will be up. Spring wheat down, Barley up, Flax up, Few faba etc. Canola down. On the canola crop, we always start seeding after the 16th of May, less flea damage as the crop is up and going quick, fewer frost risks etc. Well, it seems this year every one a week ago sat and waited on the canola till the ground warmed up.
The odd guy is a few days away from finishing, Most need a good week.
Drew has a cold night coming around the first of June the end of May. Looks more like it will be East of us and Manitoba after next weeks rain event.
Have fun be safe and lets get this crop in the gound. The parasites are counting on us.
