Canola yields...

Well what do we need rain for then ??

I'm sure on that particular field it's the truth just like in my story earlier in this thread. Doesn't mean it's the average over all their acres

looks like more market analysts need to walk more fields . lots of canola going under 30 here with 5.5" rain . here's a tip for the analysts , CANOLA DOESNT LIKE TO FLOWER , FINISH UP, (GET CUT OR SPRAYED) in 30+ degree heat ???. this is the northeast . everywhere has had 60-80 days of heat , no one in their right mind should think their is a big crop out there ! but if I was a buyer , I would be pretty scared of where my supply was going to come from next year

Especially if I have a short position.

Do you know how many grain bags I've seen driving anywhere south of No 1 highway all the way to Helena Montana three times this fall ? - zilch - nada one ---- last year there were hundreds-full of all crops. Go into the American elevators sampling room, last year there were piles of sample bags along the walls - this year you can count them on your hands and toes.

Anyone see any grain bags filled yet in the field? Just saying!
