    Knob & Kettle Terrain

    Most of Maniroba and a good part of
    Saskatchewan is considered this type of land
    formation.

    surprises me that farmers are shocked about
    sloughs and excessive moisture. This is it friends!

    If you google map or use Prairie Locator and
    scroll just north of Regina and east, Sask has a
    pile of kettles incrasing in number North and
    East. That's what you have.

    South of Lajord all the way to Yellowgrass, and
    taking in Riceton to Gray, farmer initiated and
    maintained water projects make that land arable
    most years. Huge ditches drain the Wascana
    Basin. A levy is attached to the taxes of each
    farmer who drains into the project. This is the
    only one I know of, though there likely are many
    others scattered throughout Sask.

    That radar image is looking real goofy ,the storm is
    swirling to the west and just west of moose jaw is
    getting hammered.

    To bad their is something wrong with the historical
    imagery,i don't think I've ever seen whats happening.

      Sask, dropping peas and durum to seed more canola?

      You guys that haven't started, Will you still start with wheat or put the canola in first?

        I am in the northeast and go around few
        sloughs. Sum of you don't seem to "get" it
        is rainfall, not lay of the land and
        sloughs... Just saying

          One outfit hrs and one canola. Third for wheel
          drive on standby to pull out drills.
          Peas hate water so looking at different fields, I
          need 500 acres for contract. I wanted 1000 but it
          just doesn't look like it will work.
          Durum will go to barley and hrs acres we push
          durum most years and once the first week of may
          is gone your just about their. So also wanted a
          1000 will seed 500.

            Canola won't be going up it doesn't like mud.
            And I'm not pushing rotation.

                  Maybe 2 tenths since snow. This is really starting
                  to look like last year

                    Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. I just
                    thought you might be interested in the
                    websites. But knob and kettle it is.
