    Just up and reading and wow. We are in the driest area right now RED. Surprised the snow here has some water and is running and putting some sloughs from last fall that were worked with water again.

    One good rain. but scary.

      I like dry springs . Work is easier....things move along smoother....If it can rain in Mid june all will be good.

      The world needs to starve a bit to realize I am not doing this out of the goodness of my heart and equity.

        Sounds too depressing to open and read. Better double up on the meds.

            Well there is definitely a drought brewing from Regina all the way to Calgary. Almost no snow and a couple warmish days totally took what was there. Lot of that snow fell when it was -30 so not much moisture in it.

              Couple guys still doing conventional summerfallow here. They'll be churning dirt by monday. Still a slight bit of snow in stubble. Didn't freeze last night and calling for 3 days of 15+.

                  Pardon my ignorance, but what is the purpose of tillage in mid March? There can't be any weeds growing yet is there?
