Hopper's peas and wheat are in the bin. his flax is swathed already.

His two sisters and their husbands stepped in... Don't want to post too much publicly but it's getting done and they are getting help when and as they need it.... thanks for the support on here... it meant a LOT to his daughter and whole family... they never realized he had that many friends on here!

klause, would you mind saying what the wheat yielded ? if we put that much N on it would be flat on the ground . is your ground like that also without the manipulator ? looks like a real good yielder . we need 120-140 #s act N to get 50-55 bpa canola consistently , but can't go over 75# in wheat or it is flat on the ground

Klause, you mentioned you used Ethrel and Manipulator on the Pasteur. Did you use them in tandem or side by side? If you used them in tandem why?

[stonepicker]

Noticed you didn't have a swath roller behind your swather. Do you not use one?

Klaus,

what settings are you using for canola on your Lexion combine. My dockage usually runs 1-1/2 to 2%. But maybe that has more to do with where I am selling it.

I don't know if this will work with other brands but with my IH I run the chaffer almost closed (6mm) to cut off the air and basically shake the canola out of the trash then I run the seive really wide (14mm) and crank the fan about 10% faster than normal (700-720). The only dockage is weeds and the losses are nil.

[ado089]

Those settings also eliminate high loss and filling the fan with canola on the hills.

Lex do you watch to make sure they do the dockage correctly? Only way to know.

Klaus you talk about hauling a lot of grain into the US. I was aware of the requirement to file US state and federal taxes for doing this but after reading the latest western producer thinking there is much more to this than many people think.

Just curious if and how you been doing this

[Klause]

Yes we have done it for years.... they actually interviewed us for a grain news article.

Why would you file for state and federal taxes? Your exporting product. You don't own land or a business stateside.


I didn't read the producer article but willing to bet it was written by a Canadian with interests in grwin getting sold up here.
It's act
