Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[furrowtickler]

Corn plots by town still hanging in there , but at near 4 inches rain here , 2.7 at home … 3 miles away



Canola burning out though only 600 yards east by grid in poor soil

[furrowtickler]

This has had more rain than most of our farm ..




A low draw still ok ..


Most of our stuff far worse than the first pictures
.
I know a lot of areas far worse than us, but we had potential here

[furrowtickler]

Just 50 feet away ..


Burnt out . Some fields it’s now 75% plus burnt out and going down fast

Storm warnings for Calgary and big downpour just went through Didsbury so hopefully it’ll come across and help us out. 🙏

Glad we never spent a dime on fungicides on anything not hailed . Would have been a complete waste of time , inputs , depreciation and crop trampling ….

canola on fire this morning

Maybe the shit heads that buy our grain figured it out.

Nah……….. it’s because I sold the last of ours on Friday😉

Canola really going backwards . And aint even that hot out. It just ran out. It did look nice. No sense hopeing for à big hail storm either as the odds of that are even more remote than a decent rain.

Got some badly needed rain here yesterday and today it will improve the outlook abit might get 60 percent of average .

[furrowtickler]

Strange , will not cross hiway 16 , been sitting there within eyesight for 3 hours or so
Like it’s taunting desperately dry area NE of town

Had the run around with BASF on a flea beatle claim for $6 an acre Pounce on some lumiderm canola acres. He came for an inspection 3 weeks and 4" of rain after I put the claim in. I had pictures and the excessive damage was still visible on lower portions of the mainstem. Though when making the claim they didnt even mention I should take pictures, the inspector wanted pictures with watermarks, complete with date and gps locations. He also wanted 3 years crop history with 3 years spray history with water volumes, product information and dates. Those watermark and location camera settings can be turned on in the advanced settings of your phone and from now on will be.

Good opertunity to ask him what other options there are to lumiderm.

Gumbo is getting stretched now. Just about a month with out any appreciable moisture, couple showers to wet the leaves. Cool weather is a godsend for now. But forecast looks pretty bleak. End of month heat wave. Earlier crops the winner so far.

Should have put that wheat another 1/2 inch deeper.
