    It's that bad? If a rain passes in the next week would it recover to make average?

    Wet to dry extremes are not good.

      With the huge increase in prices of all crops over the last couple of days we are going to put everything we can into this crop to maximize yield. This will be the year to remember!! With all you guys putting on the cheap generics, I'll be able to buy the premium products at cut rate prices. Plus I'll get the golf game perks, special rewards, and anything else while I help support the big chem companies.

          Hobby, you'll make more not spraying and think of all the money you will save.

            Less fungicide will be used and required for disease.

              This may be the year of , " produce less for more". One rain will change everything here and likely where you farm, but the hay crop has pooped out, don't think it will produce much. The top tap opens our tap -oh yeh maybe not SF3's. Get ready for spraying weeds- fungicide- herbicide-infanticide- top-dressing- camera-action.

              If this Omega Block moves the hell off of us it will probably rain for 6 weeks. De plane!

                I will decide what I am spraying when I scout my fields and see what they need. Just like I do every year, I spray what is needed. I kind of do not understand the jist of this thread???

                How can one decide what to spray or not to spray, depending on conditions? What about herb rotation, actual weed pressure, follow crops?

                IF I am seeing storks bill, I am not going to use Buctril M. If my crops are showing potential for disease issues, I will use a fungi.

                I don't follow the logic of it all I guess?

                  sf3 cutting back??? That's a joke he is just toying with all of you. His agronomist would not allow such a thing. All you small farmers should cut your losses so the big guys can scoop up all the money this year. We are going all out until the crop says otherwise.
