    Yes we need a seed tax because the old tried and true Brandon out yielded all our new varieties we put in. And thrashed nicer, held grade better and had more protein. Yes tax me please for these new varieties please....

      Your concerns and profitability have nothing to do with their crusade.

            Area all done.Maybe odd guy pissing with standing canola.
            Canola ran decent average on poor dirt to high on good dirt.
            No barley this year. Tired of it. Young mans game.
            Peas flat again with barely avg yield.
            Guys here dropping them as 5-7 year rotations no longer helping.
            Mine are a specialty whose demand has mysteriously increased since end Aug.
            Hard red was a nice avg but atill a protein struggle. And we're in a bran frosting area so enough 3s.
            CPS= fk!
            Screwed out of a variety by largest retailer. Settled for a NEW variety.
            Went flatter'n piss on a plate. Had to bale the straw off. Talk about the seed development game!
            Old variety, avg yield for a heat wave. On par with the best Hard red.
            Anyways, short on a contract, buying some back with dirty shorts.
            One year in 10 so what. My fault for not hedging the sale. Combine cab panic thinking lol. Old terminal promised to take it at 17 off combine. Still in bin as no trains. Bahaha.
            New terminal hasn't turned back any grain this season. Piling while pumping out trains.

                Honestly, harvest was amazing.
                New to me combine was a dream.
                Dry grain and easy straw, amazing.
                Great field finish for seeding.
                Grateful and I'll take it.

                  Beer is cold and we’ll fire up shortly to finish harvest 2020 part 2.

                  Crop is a average nothing special.

                  Trudeau is still a **** wad.

                  No more Lego because it’s now a toxic substance.

                  Moe likes to drink and has changed as he has got older.

                  I liked to drink and party but as I get older it’s nice waking up and not feeling the shits.

                  We all change.

                  Oh Ryan and the NDP need to call a leadership convention before the election and get a new leader.

                  What happened to the mighty NDP.

                  Oh and Ralph got a big pay day sent to England.

                  Long live the queen

                      Looking for a new variety that addresses some of its downfalls. Yes it can sprout easily. Its not midge tolerant. It has a longer maturity than couple other wheats we grow. It checks alot of boxes but not quite all of them if that makes sense.
