Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[farming101]

Sask canola yield in 1988 was 17.7 bpa. I wouldn't be a bit surprised.....

Canola was trying hard the last few days, but today it finally gave up. No advancement and the flowers turned white. Not even the real swamp helps in this heat.

Some of yours where it's been dry the last few years will be lucky to get 10 bu to the acre let alone 17 !

I've been around and seen the crops and the danage the heat did !

Sad part theirs morons out there that think it all goes 50 with no rain !

My twitter and online ads keep pushing a snake oil to prevent petal blasting... bahaha, SPEND MORE!

I have a few bushels booked for fall already. The buyout looks ugly. I looked at buying calls but premiums are huge. Assessing possibilities at his point. Bad or worse are the two options available.

Typically I would have 1/2 expected yield on peas sold by now, and i'd pull the trigger on another 1/4 in about 2 weeks. I have no idea what expected yield is going to be...

Surely I'd get a super B, but if production is that little do I really want to let it go right off the combine? I can store a whopping 21bu/ac crop around here in steel, and I'm pretty much certain after today that I'll have plenty of bin space to clean seed in October.

On another note, Thank you SF3 for keeping an actual farming thread on this god forsaken hellsite. It's about the only bloody thing I even look at these days on here!

The sad part is that the government and environmentalists are pounding their drums about climate change and the effects of the extreme weather on food production. They are quick to tax the carbon emissions but fail to protect those farmers that risk everything to grow food for the world. If we have extreme heat like this going forward we will need assurances that the government will backstop our attempts to keep the world fed.

Enough to wet the deck , barley. Tonight, western sask., maybe Alberta got something.
I think we are done given the forecast, . We have had a 1.2 and a 1,5 all spring , it does not add up to 5. Like some here , canola lady did say they have some info from heat losses in canola, but never had temps like This in the data. What does that tell you. No mosquitoes though looking on the bright side
