    They backed off the heavy rain for us till the next afternoon. It just means the system is slowing down. God, I hope we don't get the 75 mm they are talking about over the week.

    No more rain.

        The stage is being set for us to lose tens of thousands in value in the Ghetto's wheat crop.
        This is going to hurt!

          Tens of thousands??????

          This rain has the potential to take a billion out of Saskatchewan's farmers...here is my reasoning for the expert lurkers....

          Canola will survive the rain actually probably help it for green counts but " rain makes grain" and prices will fall for canola...

          Wheat and durum will take a quality hit ...prices will fall..

          Durum coming in at elevator yesterday....shrivelled but colour and probably protein but a 4cwad on weight....

          Wheat might maintain a 2 but sprouting issues and there will be more on the ground and not by swathing...

            The solution to all farm problems is cash advance. Trade problems, cash advance. Weather problems, cash advance. Low prices, cash advance.

                  So now we will pay a seed tax to deliver feed wheat? Only in Canada.
