Weird year here. Canola in the hills outyielded the level ground. Barley similar as well. Neighbour figures that downpour we got earlier on flooded it out some.

Going 30..
Amazing the early wheat did as well as it did... peas 70% of normal... canola 85-90% by the looks of what we have harvested, barley is done...90%. 1.5-2" in July with August 1/2" ... should be no surprise... between hail storms and poor rain coverage... SK will rally have to have a whale of a canola crop to make up for our shortage here in AB...
Fun times... safe harvesting...

The good ………maybe 40bu?
The bad……….maybe 20bu?
The ugly………maybe 10bu?
No worries of looking like a 60bu swath here. I’ll be happy with half of normal assuming we don’t get anymore hail. Thank goodness for crop insurance again this year. It looked like a disaster at seeding and mid June looked pretty good after a few rains. After getting roasted and burned for the last two months it’s not pretty.
Oh well it should run through the combine quick at least. Always a positive amongst the poo that gets thrown your way occasionally ðŸ€

The crop will likely shrink some more.:: nice to have a few showers now… bring the moisture up to more reasonable levels…
Happy Canola harvesting!

Pretty easy answer
Zero subsoil and lack of rain at a critical time for too long for 70% of the canola growing area demolished yield potential
Peas absolutely no differentLast edited by furrowtickler; Sep 16, 2022, 12:21.
