Where the phuck is the global warming everyone has been bitching about??????

[Goodtime]

I have never overwintered canola before....is it worth combining in the spring or just torch it? It is in a swath.

I have the same question, have 30 ac standing and 10 in swath. Going to put it all in swath I guess and hope its not sprouted or totally shelled in the spring. Or a match I guess. Glad we got off what we did.

Bucket, the verdict is still out on 2019. The prairies are likely on track for a below average temperature this spring and summer, and fall But that does mean that global warming is not occurring. Climate change is based on trends around the globe and not based on any one region or season.

World Meteorological Association (WMO) Statement on the State of the Global Climate in 2018

2018 was the fourth warmest year on record. 2015–2018 were the four warmest years on record as the long-term warming trend continues.

Ocean heat content is at a record high and global mean sea level continues to rise. Artic and Antarctic sea-ice extent is well below average

Average global temperature reached approximately 1 °C above pre-industrial levels

Got blotted out by low sun activity

I guess then lower arctic sea ice levels mean its cooling...none of which they say makes sense....warmer arctic with cooler prairies....some one has their equations mixed up....

4 years ago we were forced to leave 80 acres swathed over winter. We harvested in the spring, dry and got #3 for some and 2 loads of #1 for it. About 10 bushels less then fall. It turns a weird greyish color.

The stuff we took off before it snowed, was 13-14 moisture, had one bin heat that we ended selling for half price and fought with all of it until it was all gone.

It is an awful feeling (I have 320 acres of swathed canola still out) but if you dont have a dryer, and cannot immediately move it off the field, just combining it to be done is going to be the least of your problem. I saw neighbors have combine breakdowns in excess of $50000 trying to combine tough damp canola. Honestly, leaving it out isnt the worst thing in the world.
