Good morning it’s been a busy week so far in Saskatchewan.
The big rain event was a bust for most, Saskatoon to PA Melfort won and it will take these areas to the top, plus a couple areas got some rain.
Fun fact rain on a drought head or pod now might fill the seed inside but won’t make more bushels or add.
Also one common theme at Ag in Motion that I got, the heat that’s coming will take more than the rain will add in good areas.
If the Sask crop report is everything is great it’s total bullshit.
So did Regina to Saskatoon, will do Regina Yorkton, Canora, Kelvington, Hudson Bay, Tisdale, PA Battleford, then down to Outlook, Elrose, Leader, swift, Moose Jaw, south to then wrap back to Regina.
One nice triangle is Regina, Indian head Balcarres. But the rain event was only a half inch or less.
Crop Report.
Note. Saskatoon to Regina had some rain and crops had major damage before so will fill what’s there.
Wheat and Durum in our area is still looking good but will up to a half inch rain take it to super bumper for our area, No.
All fungicides are done and now we wait. Still lots of dew in mornings and high humidity. Filling is happening. Huge heat event will take some yield every day it lasts.
Peas and lentils are filling and some fields in three weeks will be harvested. Pods have good number of seeds but early spring rains did do damage.
Barley did come back from the rain a bit and is filling well most will be turning with the heat coming. Could bake in protein and lighter sample.
Flax is full bloom and looking good.
Canary seed looks like the best crop ever in our area but very few acres.
Oats is fully headed but oats doesn’t like heat so if it’s three weeks it will be an early harvest.
Canola is finishing flowering on stuff that started farm progress show week. A month of flowering. Some later is just bolting and first week of flower and the heat will hurt. Later canola the heat will hurt.
First cut hay is done and extremely good. Second cut will be poor or non existent. Pastures are going backwards as July was not that wet.
Late seeded green feed won’t like the heat that’s coming.
So in a nut shell,
1/3 of Sask is good to really good.
1/3 is hanging on.
1/3. Is done.
I am not going to sugar coat. The rain event was good at Ag in Motion but general coverage sucked and major heat coming will take yield.
Be safe have a great day and if you’re stressed talk to some one please.
