    Isn't 50# setting the bar pretty high?

      The grain companies will eat guys alive. Remember everything is in their control from grade to discounts it’s all a game. They need farmers and work with farmers is bullshit in rough times it’s all out war.

      Funny only way to secure delivery in fall you have to have a contract that they create. Fun times hey.

          Next year I am seeding my triticale FIRST!
          Have you had good luck with fall triticale if moisture is favorable for seeding, which usually is better for green feed tonnage over the years.

                  Have a friend that only farms 15 miles from me but crops look really good that direction compared to here. He kept telling me things are looking good considering, today he went and pulled a canola plant, still flowering but of the 32 flowers that are finished only 8 made pods 24 blanks. We will see how it finishes but so far that's only 25% of what it should be or 15 BPA in a 60bpa area.

                    Today I canceled all weather services and deleted all weather apps and quit starring at the sky for rain. I’m done with 2021 and it’s time to move on. Rain showers all around last night and not a drop. You have to know when to throw in the towel and take your bat home and call it a day. That day is today.

                    Oh Niel your fu ked with your prediction as usual. 11 mt or lower as flowers in healthy fields have 24 good out of 60 and rest aborted. Get out of the office and look.
