[SASKFARMER]

This isn't a massive crop it will be a lot less than last year for us.

It will be less for us also. On a differant topic our daughter in law went into labour 12 weeks early and twin boys arrived, both weighing less than 3 lbs each.They will be in the general in regina for at least three months.Went today for a first visit and i cant say enough of the work the doctors and nurses do to keep this tiny little babies alive.They are the real heroes in my eyes,and after visiting the childrens ward our farming problems are nothing compared to what these young children and there families are going tru.

Agree on the doctors and nurses
Had to get stitched up on Tuesday morning, the nurses have to deal with a constant parade of OD and whacked out patients on a daily basis here its sad.
one across the hall had 3 stab wounds , completely baked out and how those nurses handled that guy was truly wonderful.
the patience and professionalism they showed was truly impressive.

Sneaky, putting some off topic crap in your post. If you want to post politics take it to rural issues.

WTF? Are you smoking what Biden smokes? Coming from somebody that started a thread about C Change, you lefties are just a bunch of hypocritical little beotchs….

Started lentils last evening

Watching the liberals crash and burn is the best part of the last 9 years!

It is like watching a train wreck but with an added touch he is going full blast into a bridge that is out gully.

Nurses deserve every dollar they make and more. Especially in that NB hospital…..

Teachers on the other hand, suck it up buttercup…..

Crop report for West Central alberta.
In spite of multiple frosts in May and again in mid to late june, rain everyday during the end of seeding, no rain between late May and late June, way behind on heat and incessant wind, things look good but late.

My early canola froze, a few low areas with lots of straw cover we're nearly wiped out everything else recovered eventually. Later canola froze even worse in mid june. When we had four mornings in a row with frost on the windshields. Plants turned brown in most of the lower areas or straw covered areas. But most plants recovered and came back. Just way behind. Even the wheat had frosted tips later in june.

Early canola getting into flower now. Later Frozen canola not even covering the ground yet.
Wheat and barley look very good, but far behind the last few years.
What looked like a good year for hay crops has evaporated. Very little moisture in April and the first half of May and all of June with was not a recipe for good hay crops. There are a few exceptions.

I see a lot of very late seeded crops around. In our immediate area there's still a lot that is yet to be seeded or possibly was seeded when it was so dry and has yet to emerge? Lots of green feed silage and swathgrazing around here so there's still time. Just not sure why it would be so late when it has been so dry.

Some very patchy crops as well. Not quite clear why, but in my case When it was raining every day in late may I seeded quite shallow, then it quit raining and had hurricane winds everyday so there were a few seeds stranded in the dust. That is in no till with a lot of ground cover. So I can easily see full tillage being too dry to germinate in places.

Not just a Canada thing, wife and daughter sat in a London medical room waiting for a doctor while cops chased a naked crackhead up and down the hallway. Cops told them to keep door closed for safety
