Friday Crop Report on a Thursday.

[crusher]

Looks like some posters have monster crops coming. I note no one is posting pictures from my neck of the woods. We've had 5 inches of rain over the last ten days but chances of having at least an average crop are slim. Half my canola fields are okay, the other half are ugly with poor germination and cutworms. Wheat is a wild card but likely the early seeded had it's potential cut back because of dryness. Have a great weekend.

There are some real nice crops here in the SE but the excess moisture is part curse too. Just about everyone has some acres lost to new sloughs that are now drying up.

We have some canola going into bolt and some just getting out of the ground in those old flooded spots.

Lentils took a hit on many farms here. Wont be a great crop there.

Lots of dew again.

Dew ?? we cant even get that, grasshoppers, gophers and ground cracks like Ive never seen since the 80's
Glad we took max crop insurance coverage but we thought this was going to be a turnaround year but we're toast now after missing rain on past weekend

We haven’t had a dew this year. Won’t even spray the peas other than for hoppers. We have had a pallet of fungicide in the shop for three years now. Would love to get a year where we could use it . Maybe put it cheap on kijiji

[sawfly1]

Well no name everest. I hurt a few fields .
Thats what i get for being cheap. My bad
Positive thinking is it is free growth regulator. So my
Crop will not be lodged like the neighbours

Sowed peas and barley mix the hoppers weren't eating the peas but were chewing the barley as fast as it was coming up. Sprayed 1 time already wondering if hoppers wait till pods on peas before next attack. Funny can't stop the wind when spraying but try and get a breeze when you drop some hay down !

What are people using as their go to killer for hoppers. I heard pounce doesn’t work, loraban is a thing of the past and they don’t want you using matador either on cnl/durum. Does cygon work or do you have to use one of these expensive new chemistry’s.
