Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[furrowtickler]

In this area weed control was exceptional this year in 95% of the fields ... all over this area.
The only areas with weed issues are saline patch’s that are nearly impossible to have weed control.
Was going to say earlier, if there is a bright spot this year it is very clean fields for the majority.
Even most lentil fields are decent for weed control

chuck nice try but I will call your trip bull shit. That isn't going back and forth to the city 13 times.

You show your stupidity every time you post.

Yes, a few areas have some crops, yes guys will be forced to harvest a shitty crop.

But they are far more shitty than good.

If a farm usually in the long run grows 90 wheat and you grow 56 is that a bin buster. No its a crop that didn't meet its potential.

If your our organic guy you are happy with 10 or just over.

I love how you tried to pretend you actually took a trip got out and looked.

your a joke as usual.

Get a life Glen.

east central Alberta is maybe a 50 percent crop. went down to Gleichen last weekend on hwy 21 crops are a bit better but suspect is about 80 percent.Have not seen any good crops anywhere. Crops are very short here and I you swathed canola it will be prone to blowing away on you.

[SASKFARMER]

I agree with the canola what you said Tubs, Swaths that are even and nice usually can take any wind. Swaths all over are prone to wind and wind will take. We are switching game plans this year and are only swathing a section that isn't pod shatters the rest will be direct cut.

Farmers don't lie about the yields glen its elevators that think a farmer is always lying we know which side you run with.

Finally received another 28mm of rain last two days, brings the season total to 56mm since May 1st for me. Canola flowering again now. Cracks in the dirt haven’t closed, water just sucked in and gone.

So after 5177 posts, and 15 years, only 2 on topic posts, quite a track record. Did the previous post refer to farmers in the 3rd person, and find fault with them as well? Anyone here old enough to remember the last post?

Chuck, if you travelled 2600 km, that would have been far enough to have made it to my place, could have stopped by, put a name to a face, and reminisced about the good times. Maybe next time?

What part of the Peace are you in? I've heard conflicting reports of conditions up there( big area of course). Looks like the far north has had some precipitation?

Overall what is your guess, a catastrophe or below average, or?
