Killing peas on the flood zone!

[SASKFARMER3]

We'll just sick of looking at this shit so the spots that have peas are ripe enough to desicate so their getting it!
Were in the heart of the flood zone and I have said all along it's a shitty shitty pea crop we'll after doing the first field it's confirmed!
High elevated we'll drained areas peas nice but not great then shitty thin sick peas few pods then SFA!
Estimated total yield on quarter! 152 seeded harvest. 1925 bushels or 12.6!
God that's a moneymaker! Or 11250 or $76.00 an acre!
Peas 2015 320 from 800 from 1200.
Worse than I imagined!

Yep

And wait until crop insurance has to start paying out production loss claims.

They bitched at me for not seeding, I told the people at crop insurance that my too wet claim will be SFA when you start getting the production loss claims. And besides what is the difference - its all environmental and out of a farmers control, isn't that what insurance is for.

It's so f$&king ugly words can't explain! Then the big guy upstairs takes out my best 320 acre field 90%! Came to the conclusion today this is going to be one sad sad very sad harvest! Now some fusarium where sprayed and sprayed and sprayed!

Question.

Knowing what you know now, would have you been better off to say it was too cold/wet to bother?

[SASKFARMER3]

Trying to seed in mud crops like peas and lentils is useless! No I won't do this again! Better to seed these fields to oats or barley late if need be or don't seed at all! Should have realized after the foot rain event! Now I even have o run a combine over and that sucks the most! Peas are looking to be dropped in 2015! Feels like another wasted year! Thanks to a huge rain event! And previous to many wet years!

Better use some Reglone or Regone Ion at $15-$24/acre to put the icing on that cake. SF3, yellows or greens?

Furrow. Can you post some pictures of the 10ft misses beside the damaged peas because of the preseed burnoff. Side by side close ups and a more distant perspective. Thanks

[SASKFARMER3]

Yellows not saving seed so just a liter of glyphos furrow show those peas I'm interested very interested! Also the fields that coop hail made me defer till harvest and see every day a weedy ugly sick dead crop with out cleaning up is criminal! Peas hail equals a huge fail!

What else for magic concoctions have you put on them peas. Just so everyone know what does not work. Everyone spending money on magic these days. In my area it was timing was everything. Mostly And how much extra tillage was a good thing. The only early planted crop that is looking good from the road is wheat. Even that early wheat shows more fusarium than the latter.

The only solution in east SK is the Chinese solution. Unload some quarters for big bucks on a Chinese investor before there are none around.

Ontario teachers pension fund and I'll buy 30 in Alberta and join the Rose club.

[farmaholic]

SF3, by that do you mean the "Wild Rose Colored Glasses Club"? Just kidding, our neighbors to the west!!! Things are so good in Saskscratchandwin we dont need them here. Do you need any glasses for short-sighted socialists?....lots of those to give away!

[westernvicki]

Well STATSCAN was out with a huge number on pea production based up-on an average yield estimate of 35.5 bushels? Real or imagined.

[Hopperbin]

Anything to the west of here all good.east bad

[SASKFARMER3]

So in that logic some one in Alberta has to grow 71 on a 1000 acres to equal a yield of 35.5
