      It's kinda white here.... not much snow at all. The stubble isn't full and it wasn't even tall from last year's poor crop.

      Too early to say what will and won't be seeded. Hard to make concrete plans under the circumstances.

      Parent went to Midale and said there was no snow there..... but what's here could just as well be called "none" either.

      101, do you have some "current" satellite imagery to post?

          Yes the Patten should be over after three years then seed treat your own seed. Fungicide and seed treatment and you could shave easily 100 off our costs.

          But no in North America we give them everything and get screwed as they all join up to screw us.

          If you don’t think that you have never seen bad years and are living in la la land.

          One good crop again and we’ll sell nothing.

            Nope sorry, away from desktop. But basically a huge swath of the Palliser triangle is snow free

              But let’s pay more 100 a acre rent and pump more into this crop and bet everything on black.

              Vegas has better odds

                I pray it were so simple. But for some it is not.
                At least for now and the forseeable future, there are those of us who have to buy a certain level of nutrients.
                Then, kill the weeds and manage disease with some damn thing or another. Seems all chem replacement techniques still need cash.
                Crop insurance for some of us, is a necessary, at times useful, tool.
                So ya, I'll join the wiserhood when I own free and clear, enough land to be a proper multiple of scale.
                And when machinery and labor somehow become free. Maybe the organic fairy can pay my mortgage and cost of living all in one fell swoop with zero risk or cashflow stoppage.
                And thank you for reminding us that renting land is the stupidest *** thing you could ever do.
                Although I may agree with you, I don't need reminding. At least my career is nearer its end than beginning so I can cease doing everything wrong. Congratulations to those who made a fortune conventionally, and can now claim to do it differently. Better yet to those able to buy all the necessary land required a generation ago and to whom now, owe their genius to inflation.

                    Ok I’ll say it again my grand father broke and purchased 4 quarters, my dad took That to 10 and we took the ten to what we have but I can’t see my sons taking it 120.

                    It’s was timing and most thought I was nuts, especially a few bankers.

                    But I still say if I was 35 I would be moving to Argentina now.
