Getting wet in areas

[rastafarian]

.25 so far. Cracks are wide here. Could use a good shot.

WE have the same looking cracks.. and 1/10 of an inch wont do squat

We took off 130 acres of 19.0+ wheat yesterday, this morning job is blending it with 11.0% wheat. Hope to get going after lunch and hopefully a little bit better than 19.0 today. Ground is still dry so far, cutting against the ground not to bad yet but if it rains it won’t be fun pushing mud. Might be the last combining we do this week so might as well take advantage of it, good luck everyone. Hopefully we can catch up on our repairs and get semi [NODE="3"]Blogs[/NODE] back together during this rain event coming.[NODE="3"]Blogs[/NODE]

Standing canola went through very well yesterday
last load was 10 last night
hoping to giver hard till next system gets here .
wheat was 22 plus here yesterday
no chance on it even today

1-3/4" here. Only canola left and that looks like Oct. Grass greening back up. Forage will get a second cut.
Droughts generally easy on the combine. Thankful for that at least.

Looks like the majority of this next rain going east of here now

We are in for 2-3 inches,a few finishing wheat but mostly canola left.Cross auger motor blew seal,tried to combine without it but impossible in canola.Lost half a day,dealer had four so must be an issue and 800 bucks for a small hyd.motor ( macdon).We will hit 75% tonight if rain stays away.

Very active system this morning

[BTO780]

Finished yesterday at 2:45, ran around did potholes. Have a few more today then it’s over.

Well, well, below average … but what do you do???
Glad it’s over!

Main thing is way all stayed safe.

Thing is I bet you won’t find hardy a single farmer in western Canada that will say “Man I wish we had more acres to farm” after this fall

but many will continue chasing unicorns again next year , of course it will be better next year

vast majority of rented land money will be lost .

Morning predictions up to 100 mm for areas in around Leader but only 10-25 mm for Regina. Apparently it is starting tonight and showers until Thurs. Time will tell.

finished last night , going to help a neighbour finish up today ,rain likely tomorrow , pretty happy overall , wheat very good , conola average , too wet to start and then very hot and dry all July at flowering did not do it any favours

Sure is lots of land for sale ,most in the 3000/ac. range.Cant see how that pays with these interest rates,good for the seller tho.

The activity hit us at 5:30, hard rain thunder like July...1". Most half done starting canola. Ours was 8% MT yesterday, 70% of last year yield, price down 20%. No rent land involved. Wished to have none, and it happened.

More T storm warnings this morning. Wet Thursday...

Hopefully we can catch up on our repairs and get semi back together during this rain event coming.

Head gasket?

Been down that road... somewhat unsure of how cummins does it, but on my cat when you clamped down the spacer plate and measure the liner protrusion, it would "pass" on the maximum allowable tolerance, but the liners were "rocking" in the block and would chew a head gasket every year. Counter bored the block and shimmed to the highest allowable protrusion.

[helmsdale]

Still haven't dried out enough to go... Been busy rebuilding the PTO on a 1688 anyway. A $70 hyd hose caused a $22K failure. "Livin the Dream".

Seems that the moisture is going to go east of here as well. There's some heavy shit rolling around south and west of here at the moment. Still have durum to go that neighbor said was testing 18.5 yesterday. Little drying here with this moisture in the vicinity. 65deg, and 75% humidity means an equilibrium moisture content of 15.4%. I doubt there'll be any harvest today aside from those that have driers.
