Good morning all its a sunny colder morning in Sask and I'm up at the crack of dawn to go to the farm and then write my anhydrous exam again. New owners new exam.
Income tax is done and I can honestly say **** you Trudeau and all your stupid spending.
Today is budget day and farmers will be looking at the budget and wondering WTF why arent we even mentioned as always. They did give guys short of cash this spring a surprise with a total payout of the cash advance they apply for upfront.
Will, there be something in it I'm thinking No.
Crop report. Well, the melt is on in our area creeks are running as they use to for the first time in a few years. Dugouts are full or filling up and snow still has to go on the back roads and fence lines and some fields. South of the valley is close to being done.
Rainfall for the year total is 2/10 it's a start, but I feel we will be going around potholes this spring and no end to end. Last falls heavy rain and hail event filled up the soil and water will sit.
Drill 1 was yanked out of the snowbank after we dug out most of it with the loader, work will start on drill one next week to change discs and newly designed anhydrous tip. and sc****r from Manitoba. Drill 2 has a few more days to get pulled out. Tractors have the oil changed and are almost all ready to go.
Grain cleaning has started and peas are almost done. Not sure why I'm seeding the ****ers as local bids for next fall are a joke. But ND has a 16.50 and 14 is common all over the place our terminal thinks $11.50 is just awesome. I upped my target again when I got that call. The next crop to clean is spring wheat and then finish up with barley this year.
Seeding in our area is for sure not going to happen till early may we need a dry down.
Seeding plans might change at the last moment as we have swing acres this year.
Canola 5000
HRS wheat 4100
Swing acres
Peas 600
Barley 300
If we drop the above they will go to wheat.
Canola seed getting delivered next week and liberty also.
Round up bought last march so not an issue.
Fertilizer price is insane and those who waited arent getting rewarded this year those who bought early still got ****ed and no shortages in the USA so there won't be any in Canada. It was a game and a joke we got screwed again.
Land rent is moving on up and a new threshold has been hit. You need land to farm so either you pay or you buy the shit.
Some guys won't get the tractors they ordered last year for spring. Hmm, wonder if our combines will arrrive. Did order a Tractor for 2023 sure hope it arrives by next spring.
Auctions are nuts this year on some stuff, Not combines but other stuff. Semis are way up and drills if they are good fetch a real nice price. But if you sold yours and the new one hasn't arrived and won't you buy someone else to get the job done.
Have a great day stay safe and Plant 22 is just a few days away.
