    Ah I love the game

    The grain buyers never ever want to pay so release bill shit that the crops ok doing fine ahead of schedule. Then you have gov reports and chem companies all saying it's great.
    No one spends when the shit hits the fan, so every thing is great.

    Then the biggest idiot is farmers. I heard one idiot saying he had a bigger crop than last year. Yes he was hailed out.

    Heat makes little seed that's light and low oil.

    But what do I know nothing to see here, move on.

      I can just picture this conversation: "hello, Mr railway, its one of the families calling,.. can you slow down the supply of empty cars at harvest, our basis is getting too low". Mr railways response: "sure we can move this small crop quite easily, we'd rather move it in the spring anyhow, much easier on the equipment".

        Elevators make money on turnover. Sheesh!

            It's a sea of yellow around here but all the bloom took place with blasting heat and you can see a gopher run in lots of fields. I would guess that average yield will be 15 bushels/ acre. Areas north of us look a lot better, even on sandy ground.

            South and into Montana, it is sad, most fields won't warrant a combine.

                Thak God for June 14, 2017. Our crops would have looked like Montana without that 2 day rain. There are still some young crops that would benefit from an inch - for sure. When is exhibition week?

                    In our area no rain since July 3. Actually compared to the wheat and especially barley the canola looks good. Wheat and barley on sandy land burning up. No rain in forecast, going to have to take what there is. Barley and wheat loosing yield.
