Thank somebody for Climate Change for warmer, hotter, due to EVIL earth KILLING C02!

Very cold early March most likely did little damage but this round of cold could very well cause damage to any wheat in the boot or starting to head out
Corn and Soybeans already planted and now in cold soils will definitely have a yield drag regardless of weather for the rest of the year.
We have several nights of -7 to -9 coming up here so seeding will be a while yet for us .
Heard a few going out east of here but not sure
A few starting to harrow drier fields and some slough pumping , no one in rush here yet .

Yes,,, can you imagine how cold it would be, if we weren't driving around in all these ICE vehicles !

East of Foam Lake fields 100% white with snow! A while? Cold till mid May.

Crop rally time. Old and new.

I forgot to post there is a blanket of snow accompanying this as well. Does that insulate some or freeze and flatten it all? I dont know enough about winter wheat in the US and what stage its at right now.

Winter wheat has nine lives, besides acres were up down there so a few lost won’t matter ... that’s the what the analysts will say. Remember SKFs buddy who predicted the “monster” canola crop.

I’m not growing any wheat, will watch how the markets react to this cold. I’ve never had luck changing seeding plans this close to seeding.
Could be the yr wheat out performs durum??

Events like this shouldnt cause a change in seeding plans, but they sure open up some short lived marketing opportunities.

Agree , seeding plans will most likely not change but opportunities will come in marketing.
This is an interesting thread on ag talk from farmers and coming cold front

It will be a multiple day freeze event south to Texas and east as well
