Sad situation unfolding.

Unfortunately for 80% of western Canada , yields will be 1/2 of that or lower

[foragefarmer]

Can you describe “massive” for the people?

That's his description while touring his own crops.

Why be humble, screw the rest who are suffering on here.

[SASKFARMER]

Each area is different.

We freeze sometimes feed light shit don't pay a lot of bills.
We usually fertilize for real good yields but sometimes you throw everything at it up till the night it freezes.

Each area is different.

Just stopped at castle Butte and yes it is dry down here.

Not last couple years dry but its dryer

45 bu wheat crop at 6 bucks doesn’t pay many bills. Throw in a rail strike and see where prices go.

Some nice crop in this pocket but one big hail storm and it gone
also have to make it past the week on the full moon August 19
we could have a good crop , a half a crop or nothin .
yields determined in grain cart , time will tell .
potential already down 20% from 2 weeks ago , and we on a very lucky area up to this point so far
still a month to go here

I was talking to a local broker this morning from the Lacombe area. He said farmers he has talked to in the Lacombe Camrose area are projecting yields in the 50% of average yield range. Yields still going down on a daily basis. No rain in the forecast. Saskfarmer always enjoy your effort but there are certainly times you could temper your arrogance.
