            Heartbreaking.

            What are your options now? I assume a long season crop such as soybeans have no hope of coming back in time to make anything? Cattle feed is worth a fortune, can you seed some silage/baleage/greenfeed, or will insurance hold you up too long?

                Will be interesting to see what our hail insurance adjuster does… have a neighbor who needs to spread their manure… and now can make some feed for their cattle!

                Something Good will happen, I have faith King Jesus can teach us how to be patient, and learn the Farmers age old standby…

                There is always next Year!

                Blessings everyone… Preparation is always the wise practice to be blessed with peaceful enjoyable lives.

                Risk Management is an interesting state of mind!

                Cheers, Happy Canada Day Holliday…everyone!

                BBQ some steaks and spend some Happy time with family !!!

                Have a Safe good day, Canada 🍁 is a wonderful nation to build a better tomorrow!

                    I did some deep ripping last fall .
                    Did some low areas and then some compacted areas
                    Along one edge of a field where field traffic has been high over the years I ran one pass .
                    Was concerned I would dry it out too much so I did not do anymore…

                            Crop is very advanced if picture is accurate. It’s going to be an early harvest?

                                Unfortunately yes . It’s out of moisture , dried out now . Not sure what will fill heads .

                                Simply drought stress , push’s maturity , never a good thing

                                    This should be interesting..


                                    Silas Hrsw left
                                    Wheatland hrsw right



                                    Not sure we had enough moisture to actually fill the Silas . Time will tell , but the difference is substantial

                                        Ended up being very close actually , wheatland better by 1/2 bushel
                                        Wheatland better sample
                                        Silas was more chaffy as the top 20% of the head was not filled
                                        Silas had slightly higher protein
