    OK 45 days till in field what are we seeding!

    As the spring seems to be here and water is running all over the place, the new drill arrived and old one left. So ones thoughts turn to seeding.
    Still haven't cleaned a bushel. That being said here is what were doing.
    2500 HRS Just a filler.
    500 Durum down, with 600 less than we seeded last year.
    600 oats up from last year but just a smidgen.
    400 barley with malt contract, same as last year to up a hair.
    800 Peas down down down from last year.
    3500 Canola up a little from last year.
    Remaining acres a crap shoot right now.
    Have contracts for some Canola Oats and Barley.
    Whats every one else doing.

            rbrunel, What success have you had with soybeans? how many years growing? what level of heat units in your area? what date is safe for your area to plant & when do you harvest. Thanks in advance.

                  From the very little i have heard things are going good
                  in the soy department,there was a field day tour i
                  missed,agronomically se sask is good to go with the
                  current varieties.

                    we have around 2100 heat units. this will be my second year growing them. last year we were just over 30bu net/ac but left 5-8bu/ac in the feild because we sowed them into lumpy wet ryegrass stubble. we are growing a 0036 from quarry seeds in stonewall mb, they seem to react to length of day(daylight sensitive) we planted ours on the 25th of may, but i know neighbors with as good as or better success that sowed them into the second week of june. i like them following ryegrass or timothy and i using them to replace wht in my rotation because of price and fusarium issues, plus they clean up a feild real nice.. rr canola can be an issue but it's only dockage and a rotary screen can take care of that.
