We are stopped in the NW Saskatchewan corner, forecast for more rain. We were wet and now we are wetter. Not sure how much but over a 1/2 an inch for sure, some say up to an inch.

Arborfield carrot river area , northeast sask

Maybe half a dozen fields combined same seeded in the whole area lots to combine. We havent turned a wheel and land is really bad with ruts and straw after the 42 " last year july to freeze up

[GDR]

Daily showers in central AB. No big amounts but enough to shut you down for the day. No where near as wet as lots of you guys but soil is pretty wet and heavy. Bit worried about compaction. No dust at all in the fields. Got our combining done last week other than a couple wet spots. Now getting some seed in the ground between showers. Hope the rain goes to those that need it and not to those that don't.

We got 6" last October and it is still wrecking seeding conditions. Mud, sticky Mud!
Trade you for windy dry Farma...

And it's building

Actually have had quite a few calm days which is quite rare for southern Alberta. Seeding is going well and some guys are wrapping up. I really feel sorry for those who can't get going.

Our governments need to step up to the plate and help you fellows out but I guess you have to wait because bombardier, the African nations (farmers), senators, PM vacations, etc. etc. are more important.

[helmsdale]

1/2" last night. Seeding on my lightest land so was going by mid afternoon. Im currently trying to get back to the other end of the field with the wipers on...
