    Just headed to ND last night! WTF!

    We do a drive south close to this time of year to
    see family. Well can't spray so left yesterday,
    Regina to stoughton crops so so, late not anything
    like last year close to Regina. Lots of water in
    fields by Regina. Probably due to the heavy rain
    Thursday. Hrs looks good on most canola not so
    much. Stoughton to estevan late lots not seeded
    wet. Estevan to Minot wow. Late flooded out parts
    sick yellow water drenched crops. Canola up here
    flooded sick good on hill tops. Any one who has
    peas their ugly.
    The Minot area reminds me of 2010 sick yellow
    fields with lots of water lying around or just big
    areas dead.
    Water does not make grain. To much makes shit
    all.

      Although the intensity was amplified the set up
      was predicted if you have your eyes open

        Quill Lake to Humboldt today, a soggy mess. Water in every dip. Few good crops. Most late, pounded by inches of rain, sick yellow. Spraying delayed or rutted fields! Disgusting weather.

          Drove around in the country in ND. Peas don't like
          water, hrs all low spots gone! Canola some good
          some shitty some just seeded some just up water
          all over the place. Looks like our area 2010 2011
          2012.

            Same thing in this area. Crops were just hanging
            on now we will be back to rut central. Need heat
            to bring things along. Sounds like a chance for
            more precip this week as well.

              And some people wonder why there is a need for
              an effective farm support program. Everyone else
              will get paid but the guy taking the most risk may
              not.....

                  less depressing than 40.
