Small area.
2 miles north our bly is burning to shit.
Rite at Fosston they got a 1.5 inch dump a few weeks ago that we missed.
That tiny swath has the best.

Caught rain yesterday on a section. it's a good one so will tell how it improves or just fills the crop. Then another 7 quarters got I guess a half on Sunday.

Yard got 1/2 tenth yesterday so done and damage will continue.

I have to say south of town will win hands down this year over the north. the north is not getting its usual rain.

South some real nice looking and should fill.

In 02 trench work showed the C soils dry to 6-8 ft if I remember correctly. Multi year dry had all sloughs dry.
Looking at a trench now, A soil dry. B soils moist not wet LoL. Roots are in it. And C soils quite damp. Sloughs shrinking.
Explains my findings with my moisture probe.
No guess on yields as of today.
Two weeks ago I said %25 less than average. Today looking like half.
Based on forecast possibly a third or worse.
Peas and wheat are 40 ish today but wont fill all the berries. Canola did not branch so 30-40 as a guess today but will not fill what's there.
So, losing bushels every day.
WAG? A bushel a day??
Starting to see odd early cereal turning. Bad sign.
Nothing but air in most of my bins this winter.

A lot of healthy looking cereals all along all things considered. But husbandry practices becoming more evident every day. Half the effort, half the yield this year.

If I had to guess yields...

Durum:13-15 if it fills. Heat and lack of precip could possibly still take another 50% of that. Some fields in area are already sub-10.

Wheat: dont have any. Best I've seen could possibly pull 17-18, but at least 50% of that is likely to disappear. Theres no way current soil moisture can support that amount of growth.

Canola: dont have any. Worst I've seen will be under 5, best is maybe 15. ALOT of places that failed to bolt, and plenty of aborted pods.

Peas: maybe I'll average close to 10? Thinking 7-8 more likely, possibly as bad as 5. Some area fields have upwards of 25%-30% that failed to even pod.

Lentils: no idea... they look *ok*, but damn are they short!

Grass: anything that's established resembles the surface of mars...

What survived the heat dome week is slipping now. Heard a neighbour had an agronomist out to do a yield prediction on their canola, 16 bpa. Local barley is coming down for silage, not sure if it’s fields that were meant for it or trying to salvage a grain field.

The idiot was just on the radio stating western canada will grow a average of 37.6 BPA crop of canola.

With 22 mil acres that’s a 18.7 mt ducking crop.

Come on Niel are you totally fu king nuts or just playing a game.

Canola isn’t outstanding even on areas with rain.

There are irrigation canola crops that won't make 38 bpa FFS.

Canola is Dekalb new 99sc.
Seems ok now but who knows.
Bly head, but will it fill?

Your barley looks good compared to mine and others in the area. The heads are just partly out of the boot and just sitting there. I have seen this happen before in a dry year. Hopefully you have somewhat descent crop!

Media needs to put a positive spin, not to scare the masses of a potential food shortage..

In the spots where crops are burnt and dead, how the hell do weeds grow?

call and ask them what their game is
surely to christ, no one can be this out of touch ???
if you subscribe , ask them where they are getting these ludicrous yield projections from , more importantly , WHY?
