Add in canola huge carry over .... not there
Heat damaged crops like said above
Huge areas that were very wet in northern Alberta and NW sask where some crops will be well below average .

But the market ignores all the above .... big crop. , big crop .... quack quack .

Some areas will be very good , but more areas will not be very good

You don’t have to be a brain surgeon to see the heat is. Taking yield. Leave one of your wives house plants on the deck for a week and then bring them back in tell me how she reacts. That’s canola yield in extreme heat.

Adding insult to injury special 6.10 for 1 red 13.5. Only 20 years late. Think you can pay for the green turd with that?

The corn has sure liked the heat here. Probably grew two feet this past week. Really pushing things along nicely. If we had the equipment and dryer ready to go maybe could try the barley this month which never happens here. Supposed to be cooler and some wet again though so who knows.

Lock your bins. See how hungry the crooks get.
Sheet, I forgot there’s bills to pay.

Sum, I remember selling my first reds for 17c a lb back in the 90s when CWB wheat prices were $2. It felt like all the money in the world so 30c is still fantastic when I think back to those days.

Some guts with their CEBA are OK

Yep Jazz, I remember minus twenty cent surf but lived for the big waves. 😂 30 cents would be ok if we could pull off a 40 bushel crop instead of half that.

OK like me who runs the farm through my “personal” account and my wife runs all the actual personal stuff through hers. I guess on the bright side I don’t need to worry about paying money back that I never got. Crazy rules

Another 1.25 inches from a thunderstorm tonight. I guess my streak of rained on hay continues. 80 acres would’ve went tomorrow with preservative but got the rinse cycle instead.

Sheepwheat did you ever get yours all done? Still have a quarter of lowland grass to do sometime here. On the bright side it’s getting drier while standing now. 😉

[Sheepwheat]

I got the bulk of it after all. About half is decent/nice quality, and about half is quite ugly. But it yielded great and i am hay secure for the first time since we got stock on this farm. Raining here right now too. If I hadn’t got it yesterday it would have never baled today. No wind and just muggy and humid.

There was never more than a four or five day window. I lucked out on the last stuff, it was cut on Saturday and I baled it Wednesday, really exceptional drying for this area.

Hope to get a couple hundred grass squares for lambing time still. If the rain stays away. Much cooler forecast and unsettled. We shall see...

[SASKFARMER]

Well I don’t want rain Now and guess what it still is missing us.

.03 of a inch or piss all.

[SASKFARMER]

Check your canola a old enemy maybe came back with vengeance and is destroying a new straight cut variety in some areas. Blackleg.

We pay good money for superior seed and they are pushing shit out to fast and getting rid of stuff to fast. But pay more money For seed inventing the same wheel.

Radar looks ominous for area south of Yorkton. Storm, possible tornado watches for that area. Hot and humid rules the day around Sask South.
