    Harvest Weather!

    Well tomorrow is the beginning of a new week and what a great harvest week the last one was.
    Rained 1 inch last Sunday then drizzled on Monday no wind Tuesday or Wednesday. Finally Thursday afternoon the Standing barley was ready so we went hard till dark then heavy dew. Went hard Friday and Saturday till 9:00 and it Rained. Then for from 5am till 9am.
    Lets hope this week is better! Were at 70% just the canola left. Canola no huge Yields this year.

          Still a struggle along the corridor in Alberta. Lots of machines running yesterday on cereals although at the elevator said they had only seen 2 dry samples. Canola still just borderline for moisture. Forecast looks bad end of the week although they can't get it right for 1 day out. Will keep pressing harvest and running through the dryer.

            same here south of Craig in the Didsbury Olds area, my first day harvesting Oct 1 finished 200 acres canola, only dry crop around. weather here sucks, low temps, persistant showers, no drying winds.
            And snow constantly in the forcast, now its friday, well guess will wait to see!
            got some more canola for my cousin, get that done then see. Barley standing or swathed is 16-17%

              No combining since sept 16th here. Rain a constant threat, short days, no wind, and what's left out is feed. That would be about half the crop...

                We're pretty much done. About 15% of crop needed a lttle drying. Quality is good overall. Yield wise, peas and canola average, cereals 10% below average.
