Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

How does canola overwinter in the swath.
Have heard a few positive comments.
Always heard it was a write-off before.
I have shatter resistant , seeded on 1/2 the acres.
Regret swathing it all now.
Wondering if I should leave that for last.
In case it has to over winter .
Neighbours doing standing at
14-14.5 last night.
Swath is still soaked in the middle.
Maybe hard frost the next few nights . Will dry it out
A bit . But more snow in forecast after that.
Yuck

Had #3 due to damage spring '17 and seen it #1 previously. With as much out as there could be, might get graded pretty hard. Depends how bad they want it but regardless there'll be a market. Don't burn it imo.

I love Rumors in small town shit hole Saskatchewan.

I am suppose to be having trouble getting guys out to work this year.

Hahahah

Let’s see pay 4 guys to 6 to come from the City to stand around and look at each other and then drive back to the city and get paid both ways

30 hours a week or more doing nothing or three locals take off enough each day to keep dryer rolling when no one is going.

Small town useless shit.

Oh but maybe look at it 40 hours x 20 plus is 800 a day I don’t pay last 12 I made 10000 grand.


There happy to be only coming out when we can go not sweep the shop or piss around.


Clouds coming in and really cold now.

Maybe take the case quad out for a little workout.

Like drew says patience grasshopper.

We have had It winter great in swath and then blend and sell some poor results and one year burnt and seeded next day. Total shit.

Depends on winter if it’s a warm cold warm wet cold warm wet winter probably shit.
Cover and sit till spring not bad

Good dump of snow to cover/anchor swaths, stop wind shatter. Last year's minimal snow till Jan was terrible shatter.
Last day wheat was dry, Sept 8....those clouds have been here 90% of time since...

last Ice age , eerily similar to our COLD temps this fall!

[SASKFARMER3]

Not bad at all.

Be careful that you dont develop s deep affection for “red”

[SASKFARMER3]

Red is a contrasting color

Here in the RRV had wet for 2 weeks now, good farmers prettty much done harvest, still a bit of soys and fair bit of corn ready to go when dry. My standing canola ready but another 3/10ths last night. Storm started with 5 minutes of stiff water so 10 to 15 % gone maybe more when it dries or freezes. Wind doesn’t stop. Not worried. Will get what’s left someday.
