Problems abound everywhere.

That should be very concerning given the world situation as of late

Chilly again , but still best part of the day

[agstar77]

Can you go at all agstar ?
Or you in the real wet area ?
Mb. Looks like it’s getting hit hard

No go. Air seeders sitting. Ground is firm but wet. Not a lot of water standing but it is wet.

Look's like we're getting it again in most of Manitoba. I don't think much has happened in the southern third of the province.

I remember back in 1997 during the flood, the Red River Valley was last to seed and first to harvest that year.

Things can change fast.

Did they plant different crops, allowing them to get harvesting first?

Besides barley, what crops could be planted so late and still be harvested early?

Or does it come down to being in a area with high CHU's

We are given er with both units now . Ground forming up quickly . Not lumpy yet but will be in7-10 days without a rain .
Canola stubble starting to pull harder already

Yes. Just tied into canola stubble and it’s firmer than usual. Moisture still okay but it’s a tug in the clay. 40 feet and 425 hp and 75% engine load on “level” ground. Wheat and oat stubble in hills will be a load cause cows picking on it right now. Trying to delay turnout on summer pasture till June.

Hearing the same thing here from cattle guys about pasture .
Rain forecast Friday is now gone

Seedhawk finishing Durum, just in time for predicted 2 inch rain (prolly 3/4 inch). Going around Lake of the railway tracks, hopefully will survive those last few swipes where we get a bit too close.
