Friday Crop Report on a Thursday Week 24

[SASKFARMER]

Grain markets have zero idea about the small Canadian crop. A handful of areas won’t make up the difference.

7 isn’t a special for wheat when it’s $8.41 converted today.

56 dollar canola basis is a joke.

But by the imagery, there was a big crop in mid July
I wonder if they could spot the Hessain Fly from space and the up to 30/40% yield loss and downgraded grain quality??

[SASKFARMER]

It’s a joke what going on right now with all grains. Then throw in China picking on the weakling

[WiltonRanch]

Tied into first wheat field. Decent for the year. Protein is only 12. Put a lot more nitrogen on than usual and an average yield. Hearing of insane high protein where it was dry and 13.5 on better yielding areas.

Herd talk this morn the local canola kings who grow the 50 bu stuff are complaining its running in the 30-35 range . We might try ours tomorrow if weather permits and i would be tickled if it makes that. Oats were 100 bu but light and lots of skinnies ( backgrounder feed).

[SASKFARMER]

Canola is the one who didn’t like the heat of July.

[SASKFARMER]

We’re finally rolling after last nights. Showers

So for all the BtOs who run NH do you buy 6 and they throw in 4 for parts because most days two are sitting. Just observing all the NH farms on way out.

Prosoils 2 million dollar airstrip is nothing
McGrath at western sales is setting up a 50 million dollar building in rosetown. Dont know if its for machinery or his 2 lear jets. Hey Sasky, why is it everyone around here that traded three 780,s for two x9s is now renting a third combine. Western had their biggest and best at Biggar in a super fall rye crop. Couldn't make them work. Claas had to finish up.

They are all junk now days….

Long gone are the days of 9600’s and 2388’s that would run 3000 hours pretty much trouble free. Oh and I could fix anything on them….

[biglentil]

Not hearing good things about the X9's either.

[fcr]

Neighbour bought a new x9, then bought a s790 for a second combine as they were having so many issues with the x9. Now today he traded the x9 on a another 790 plus some cash back

[SASKFARMER]

Dumb move way better sample less throw over and awesome machine.
