      Combined 2000 bushels of damp canola then rained at 3pm. O well was needing a break anyways. Lots of time to dry it now. Only 2250ac to go, at 40 acres a day that will take a while.

        Canola 13% this afternoon. If the sun had come out like forecast, maybe could have done more, but straw is like a rag. Did one hopper - cost 1 rotor belt ($685) and one rear beater belt ($200). Wasn't worth the cost of repairs and frustration.

          Did my 15 ac of standing barley around my yard today. i imagine it tests 18 to 20 moisture with kochia in it. Over half the barley has shelled/broken off by now.

          This is first time I have combined since Sept. 30,Craik area.

                Started again Thurs. afternoon
                22% moisture durum finished quarter lighter land
                noon Sat 25% Durum heavy crop slow going
                Noon Sunday rented neighbours grain bagger, as we are getting worried about the volumes we can dry in a timely manner

                How much can you dry down in one go?
                We are thinking four points a go

                Seems like the quality is staying and with a little drying and blending we should be alright.
                hope by the time we are done the cereals the oil seeds will be close
