Well well now all that was nice to read. Every one have a great night.

Big wheel I didn't think Hutterites voted in elections. You seem to be a wheel big dick.

No pillow fights either! Anyone bring an acoustic guitar and the Kumbaya song sheets?


See what happens when you put the two words "harvesting" and "spring" in the same tread topic....brings out the worst in people. I really feel for the guys with 2016 crop to harvest.

Amen. After a few nights sleeping on a bench in the U of A Hospital watching all the sickest people (all ages) in the region, funny, my back and knees did not ache at all! No wha-a-a-a-ambulance needed here.

We've had some arrogant ***** on this site but big shit is making BTO Farmall look like an angel.

Farmaholic, we were very close to having about 500 acres of Durum left out. The combine calved big time as all the guts fell apart. I think it was Nov 12 when we left the field. That's pretty late for us. This year will be different, fingers crossed.

Sumdumguy, then what was the true cost of harvesting that durum under those adverse conditions....and then the "trade" wants to pay you as little as they possibly can for it. Insulting.

Pounding tough material through the combine last Nov was.probably equivelant to two or three years worth of wear and tear.

Yep, wear and tear on the operators, but you know, "When the going gets tough...." If not for the Gleaners, we'd be out there now. Good old, tried and true. Ah, farming in the ghettos.

Silly me - I thought land on the prairies generally traded in multiples of 160 acres. Guess there must be lots of odd sized "first out" parcels hey?

Grassy has a good point apparently Big Tire didn't have to buy the sloughs and trees either, just the "cultivated acres".

By the way I am an ex NHL'r and now farm 40,284 acres. Bigger than all of ya. Enough already!!

[the big wheel]

My programs only deal with acres I m seeding. Many of my quarters along rivers road divides etc are not full 160.

Did you happen to play for the leafs?

Do you make much money off of 40,000 acres of swamp spruce. Hahahaa
