Drought S.A.

Agstar looks like you could get 2 inches the next couple of days.

Some of the cracks should get a bit smaller.

Hope so. Thanks

Say a little prayer for the rest of us if you don’t mind

What no sense of humour?

Obviously you don’t understand the
Psychological effect of the word banjo
Especially coming from someone in
Manitoba. Lol

And double bad when our team is looking shitty
Compared to the blue. Lol

We took a kicking for 30 years. Suck it up. They are saying snow. Talked to a friend of mine from Sask , the banjo reference fits premier and some of his supporters.

Where are you seeing details about a South America drought already?

I see there is a likely La Nina which would mean probable drought in SA. But are conditions as of today a concern yet?

Who do you follow or what source do you use for information on SA conditions? I check Kory Melby occasionally, and he's not saying much about drought.

Thanks for that. Still lingering effects of the ongoing drought. I am more interested in the current situation as it would affect crop production. As far as I know, it is still much too early to be affecting crops in most places.

The latest I could find




Like you said it’s early in their season so lots can change yet

Mother Nature did harvest management this year in a vast majority of western Canada .
Natural dry down for most of the cereals , swathed the barley here .
Perfect fall to do weed management after harvest
Got a nice premium on the barley for malt for not being sprayed over feed .

They pay extra for non roundup sprayed barley?
How much?

Malt over feed

Worked out to $1.90 over feed
Interesting what maltsters will pay when they have too
Even oats , look at what they are willing to pay
And absolutely guarantee they still making money at other end
