      Hopefully get done the hrsw today , and start the CPS
      Barley still has green in it , not going to swath that with forecast, it can’t stand for now .
      Any luck we should have the CPS off Saturday
      Then try strait cutting barley

      Swathing canola ...... like walking on the edge of a cliff , just don’t look down and look ahead ...
      canola be worst crop here by far .

      So far yields are 25% or less to 60% of normal. The 60% is an oddity on a few fields of very good land

        I'm thinking that's about the best way to talk yields this year. It's all relative... my single digit peas are about 25% of long range crop insurance average, which in bu/ac is a brutal number, but so is 25% of 80bu/ac wheat if that's what you're used to.

        First durum in local area is about 35% of long range crop insurance average. Have heard numbers as low as 5-10% of average in in-laws neighborhood for cereals. Expect to hear anything from 10-40% for remainder out there.

        Oddly mustard for me was about 80% of average. Go figure? Hoping my cereals will be in that 30-35% neighborhood. They go next when mother nature decides to be accomodating.

        Lentils anywhere from 5-40% of average.

        Haven't heard any barley numbers (hardly any grown here)

        Canola will start the very end of aug or first week of sept. It looks god awful.

              Are you riding with the Hells Angels?
              Maybe owe them a favor for bill collections?

                  If wheat and canola are the same I’ll be happy, hopefully it doesn’t turn into a long wet harvest, nature has a way of balancing itself sometime or another.
                  Was it synergy bly?
                  Really doing well here compared to Copeland..

                    Is that a Horse Chestnut? We brought a few seeds home from Hyde Park in London, now we have a vigorous growing tree with leaves like that in our front yard. We will have to move it with a tree mover this fall. ( MJ would have bunches of bud on tips)

                      Post because I had over a 100 last couple years and this year half at best it's all about the rain. A few got the rest didn't consider yourself really lucky. New varieties are way better. It's farming. 3 inches doesn't grow much. You need 5 one every month from April on.
