    April, first 2 weeks very cold, I thought seeding would be delayed.
    Warmed up fast and was actually done seeding in good time.
    Rain varied from under 3 inches to just over 5.
    Hay crops yielded from 1/3 of a bale per acre to a high of 1.
    Peas, barley and HRS wheat done before weather went for shit.
    Very cold shitty snowy Sept. and early October.
    Started feeding cows about Oct. 10.
    Flat wheat was miserable to combine after snow, straight cutting Canola not so bad.
    Yields on peas best to date, barley average low 70's, CPS wheat average mid 70's.
    Hard red mid 60's and Canola low 40's, less than 2% green.
    Overall felt very fortunate to get it all in the bin.
    Also happy I bought fertilizer end of August, really is rediculous that you have to buy an input 9 months before you use it and potentially almost 2 years before you sell the crop that grew from it to save a few dollars.
    For 2019 hoping for better rainfall!
    I would think I could just cut a paste your post for most of this area ..
    And absolutely agree with the last paragraph on buying inputs ... it’s almost disturbing how much the pre buy input has been pushed so early .

                    Lol...I can thank farming101 for putting me onto that guy. It's Donald Sutherland starring in the old movie "Kelly's Heroes" who played Captain Oddball and gave one of his subordinates, Moriarty, shit when he talked negative and complained.

                    I guess I should have a picture of Moriarty as my Avatar.

                    Maybe I also need to change my username to Charmaholic...lol
