    Early seeding?

    I know soil moisture is excessive in many parts but there is a big area with no snow right now
    Open water on Diefenbaker?

        Show us east of Last Mountain(Long) Lake to the west side of Manitoba.

        There's snow here even on the pea stubble, albeit not much.

            Thanks 101.

            For some it may not be so much an early start to seeding but an early resumption to last falls harvest!

            Sorry to pick the scab. The wound probably won't fully heal anyway until everyone is finished last falls harvest.

              Yes, well there will no doubt be some crop of value to be harvested yet.....
              Canola=cash everything else is a tough go, either no movement or don't want it at all. What will the market for spring threshed be like?

                    Saw Drew Learner at FCC Farm Forum. His view is overall we are going to have a drier spring. We will still have the usual rain showers but "a good chance to get into the fields early!"
