Rain

[SASKFARMER3]

I agree with Bucket a 100 combines and three hour window wouldn't help in some of these areas that get every single rain that comes upon them.
Mud is mud.
Things you own in the mud zone.
Top line pressure washer as its used three to four times a day.
Rubber boots the work boot of choice.
Tow strap and not just any the bigger the better.
Pull tractor to sit at edge of the field because sick of running for one.
Big hp on every thing from swathers to combines to tractors.
Big drill NO as you ever try to get one of them unstuck. Size to heavy harrow because if it made it through the drill will to.
Matches to burn fields black.
All service or farm trucks 4x4 as never get down any roads without.
Own a cat backhoe or trac hoe. Because you will need most of the time.
Grain dryer as every fricking year it will be used.
Dual kits for swather and sprayer.
Mud kit for air drills or floatation kit.
Grain cart with tracks or floatation tires that you get the biggest but fill about half.
Mud the curse of farming in the parkland.

Drew Lerner Predicted a wet 2015 fall. El Nino was predicted on DTN to push the Jet Stream further north... and with the warmer wetter Pacific western air... should be no surprise on an El Nino year...this has happened.

I seeded 400 acres of tillage radish with oats.

It was too dry on land that last year that couldn't be seeded.

Was pretty excited about them but didn't work so well.

Did get a few that were 3 inches around

Most ended up like small carrots that did grow.

Neighbors cows are suppose to be grazing them after cutting for greenfeed.

Except for Freewheat... you guys ... you live in Western Canada.

You have had reasonable crops for the most part...

Your complaining is sad. Our fathers saw much worse weather as I grew into loving being a farmer...

Count your blessings... name them one by one. A Thankful Heart and Spirit goes a very long way... to being a positive person! See Circumstances in a positive light... make the best of them.. you will be a positive influence on your community... and you will be trusted with more blessings. Be Positive, standing in agreement with negative thoughts pushes away the good parts of life! And my daughter is doing her Masters in Counciling and is a Registered Nurse.

I am blessed that Princess past along such wise Genetic Blessings to my Children!

Bless you all and have a really good Sunday... with your extra hour of rest!

Bless You

As long as it doesn't affect tom everything is great.

You re a complete ass tom!!!

Thx Pour
Perspective is everything
Bless you too!!!
If we do not know the difference between right and wrong... We have truly lost our way
If humanities only purpose is to be raw animals... Then we of all creatures are to be pitied...for we are without excuse.
Have a wonderful day!!!

I started this tread to relay the facts about what it is like in my little world. Not malicious, spiteful, or rubbing salt in anyone's wounds.

Today, I'm happy the way things are looking for next year for me. I'm sorry and empathetic if other's are having trouble.

Let's keep it above the belt.

The sermon Tom heard this morning will last for a few hours today and by tomorrow he will revert back to his normal self. By posting in the matter he did above he alienated others on here who may be suffering from major harvesting problems.

Good job Tom!!!

I think the rain we had this morning, while not that much, has likely ended fieldwork for 2015 here. It is wonderful for hay field and pastures for next year though.
