Friday crop report on a Thursday.

I think the difference just dawned on me.

In row competition because of the higher seed concentration.

Likely the same number of seeds per acre.

Less SBU in 30 inches versus 15 inches.

No Agrology degree here(on my part). Maybe no common sense either.

Was both sides planted the same day and depth? The soybeans sure are showing a difference.

Biologicals perhaps? Spacing looks different. One drilled in one planted? Whatever it is the flag is not necessary :-).

Sad to hear Case. Isn't easy on anybody when Mother Nature is rough.

And also had a tornado or plow wind or some ****in thing
Hundreds of trees down , bins etc layin all over
And all that ****sucken weather channel did was to warn us to wash our hands
A quonset blew across somones yard and ripped part of their house roof off
Some of those 30000 bu flat bottom bins flat on west side

We saw a storm like that plow through in, I think 2005. Only buildings undamaged were steel, double wall with foam insulation. Everything else, house roof, windows, horse barn- blew away. We still are replacing some small things. Insurance-good but not great.

You are going to make canola seed $1500 a bag.

Lol , planters been in use for a long time before we got one .
The percentage of farmers using planters is very minuscule.
And they have their downsides as well like any machine .
But happy with establishment again this year.
Up to Mother Nature now .
We all just seen what happened to CaseIH and that big area . Gone in 20 min .
Ahh but farming sooooo easy lol , I still shake my head at those that think it’s all easy street ...

Did you read about this guy in Mb seeding with an old hoe drill.

So after reading rain reports did everyone get something some ways to much , but alleviated the dry for a week or two?

Seed companies are no dummies, with singulation becoming available on air drills, we will no doubt have a canola (and wheat etc) seed price based on that. So that $750 50 lb bag of seed will be $1500 based on the assumption of 2.5 lbs per seed rate vs the current 5.0. At least lots of guys around here already have a corn planter, just need to buy a set of canola plates.

There were some nasty storms in south central Sk last night. At our farm nothing major ... half inch rain, now gives us between 3.5-4 inches in a wk.
Friend had a couple fert bins fall over, another got hailed out on some land, they are just west of Assiniboia. Further west of Assiniboia I’m assuming there was a lot of hail.
Radar was purple/red which isn’t a good sign.
I’m at a lake half hr NW of Assiniboia nothing much here .. couple tenths. But 5 miles south there was lots of action.
Guess it’s that time of the year.
