Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[makar]

It is never over until we give up. I can remember harvesting between Christmas and new years!!!

This is nothing like those years, it is not good ripe crops can't go due to wet ground which was mostly dry if you could get it then ground froze and you rolled, what do I know, this is my 50th harvest.

Well Tom we don’t give up till it’s over but being a realist we start putting shit away. Started with Kelly, harrows, stone picker, sprayer, gravel equipment, cultivator, drills, farm trucks, sc****rs, backhoe,.

Now the swathers, combines and semis and dryer were waiting.

But in three weeks if we get no movement were done for 2019.



Fiits real nice so can thaw sieves.


Ah farming that fat lady is clearing her throat.


Off to red deer. Storm on way Tuesday still snow.

Ahhh... start after midnight... IN THE SNOW COVERED ice canola... in SWATHS... BE SURE IT IS below -10c...[-15 better] go till 6am... bring in combines and pull chaffers to thaw them... to be reaDY for next night ice canola. Dry all day to catch back up on ice 22$ canola. It is amazing how much snow will blow out through combine on a cold night! 3 inches on swaths... straight cut is a walk in the park... as it [the snow] mostly ends up on the ground! Skim soybeans off the top of the snow ...

I was doing standing oats, avoiding snow like the plague, it was minus 14, and I still was getting too much snow in the hopper.

Maybe today will be better.

Wet snow over the weekend isn't helping here ...not freeze drying....

The last of our Canola got skimmed off the top in Wascana Creek. Six inches of snow under standing Canola. Might be a once-in-a-lifetime experience (then find way back to yard in a blizzard). Amazing how Casey handled the challenge.
