    Lentil Crops??

    With all the rain, hows everyone's lentils holding on? There's a lot of root rot showing up from guys I've talked to. Tight rotation will play havoc this yr.
    The guy that grew outside side of the fringe areas must be wishing they grew more canola.

    Big crop coming is what I heard at farm progress show ..... why worry.

    Although one guy admitted there is a 2013 repeat on its way for transportation.

        Keep seeing reports of big wheat crop in U.S. and this on top of considerable 2015 wheat still on farms.
        Futures prices still see wheat moving to higher premium over corn than at present, does not make sense.
        On other hand, do see a lot more pea and lentil crops here, may have come at expense of wheat acres.

          Just glad we got some rain on ours. Pretty much dry to the bottom of their roots.... Apparently they look good from guys who drove by. I haven't checked them in a week and a half.

            There has been no oil tying up track space for over a year.

            Not a lot of potash either.

            Grain is barely making 500000 tonnes a week.

            But hey.... it's all good.

            The industry had only lost a week in shipping due to poor cars.

            Excellent progress to a country that relies on exports.

            FFS.

              Between .65 and .90 in the area again last night. Light land with no lentil history is great, other lentils on good heavier land with water storing capabilities the lentils are done. Peas in the area are looking poor some is likely aphanomyces.

                  Lentils are looking good, even on heavy gumbo. We got between 1/2 and 3/4 last night. We're good now. Guess its time to ask the big guy for sunshine and heat.
