The funniest thing about this is Ive grown durum on my south farm sold to to a end user who has a family mill in Italy. who shipped it to Italy in containers, milled it, put it in little bags with product of Italy on it shipped it back to Canada and made a tidy profit because the fancy folk only want to pay a premium for "italian" semolina flour.

The real "unwise guys" are the farmers that are applying glyphosate to crops that are too green, trying to speed up harvest. Glyphosate is not for desiccating wheat. Period.

We will probably lose it for a harvest tool.
Here, every acre of wheat not going for seed is sprayed.
After the green is out of glume and kernel dents with thumbnail. On most of the field. Not the green patches.
A valuable tool here. Swathers for wheat, not so much. We'll have to find a different chem.

[QUOTE=MBgrower;349713]I havent preharvested a cereal crop in over 15 years. I dont know why it is considered common pratice in s. Sk to spray on durum wheat. Ever hear of a swather?[/QUOTE
Goes for any wheat or oats.
We don't pre harvest either..post harvest leaves the sprayer in the yard the following spring.
