Well, it's a rainy Thursday in Eastern Sask So far the total at the farm is 1/2 inch of slow rain no snow, yea. Total for the year now is 8.5 inches with 3 from April till early June then 3 tenths all summer. 5 inches in August and now 3/4 inch for the month of October so far.
It's part of Build back better like Trudeau says. Its a start a good start for 2022.
Here is the Crop Report.
All harvest is complete in our area. All guys are done baling and the odd guy still picking bales.
Fall work is done by a few and some guys just do nothing after harvest they have everything parked and are gone.
We have another week to kelly or harrow and that opp is then done on every field. Stone picking might happen if it doesn't get too cold later this month. Then it's on with the cat and hoe to clean up fields.
Fertilizer is insane and actually, I think the industry is ****ing up this time. Peas and Lentils will be grown on more acres next spring along with crops that don't take massive amounts of Nitrogen like Canola and Wheat crops. To grow 60 canola and 90 wheat you need massive amounts of fertilizer. Watch it happening even if some don't want to think that. Well, make more money on half a crop vs a huge crop I grew last year. Less to haul and **** the supplier who is just gouging.
Oh, now a shortage for next year of Glyphosate. **** you. Double the price and now a shortage. I bought a semi load last spring after seeding **** you.
Oil and gas are going through the roof stupid liberals must just be going nuts with oil is dead. If they would have helped western Canada get pipelines and build the gas terminal in Vancouver and now they could have sat back and collected billions in taxes to pay for their insane programs. All would be good. Maybe it was good to lose the last election.
Canola had a bad day a few days ago and came back a little. The USDA now says the smallest crop ever. I was right to trust a farmer over any advisor any day. Oh, and Australia's frost has actually caused some problems pictures coming soon thanks mallee.
Thanksgiving was this last weekend and it is actually nice to finish this early and relax. Be thankful we had an ok crop and life is good.
We all think our lives are tough, Today I will go pay my respects to a young man who isn't young anymore. When he was 18 he was in a car accident & a minor surgery went extremely wrong thanks to an anesthetist he has been in a coma for 30 years. He passed this last week. RIP Ryan.
Have a safe week and talk to your neighbors we are all farming and were all in this together. Why farmers want to **** other farmers just blows me away.
