    Do you scout for leaf disease before spraying your fungicide or do you just apply it in every field? So far little leaf disease in my barley, I have a few days left to decide if I am going to spray fungicide. After some moisture in the forecast for early next week, long term forecast looks warm and dry. My barley has been the largest beneficiary of the rain we have had as it was seeded last. Neighbour’s early seeded barley has a bunch of new heads in it, so two crops.
    Looking at everyone’s canola in the area, regardless of variety there are many blanks but canola still looks very good.
    We leave the dividers on and down in all crops except peas, canola is not an issue have found in some instances slow down and let the dividers do their job.

          The above drought map is as of June 30. We are in the severe drought area between Calgary and Edmonton.

            It looks like this coming week might produce something, 60% chance most of next week. We have been getting little showers out of nowhere, yesterday a few tenths to 17 mm scattered about. Spotty as a Dalmatian. 😂

              I have someone who checks for me plus I do also scout fields myself. It’s budgeted in already but the crop is wet till afternoon and starts in evening early.

              Crop dividers I don’t use anymore we use tram lines the same ones all year and work will start working in fall the lines. Switch each year.

              If it really rains next week we’re good till harvest if it doesn’t maybe it won’t matter

                Interesting report, they cover Canada and allude to some weather forecast turning much hotter and dryer to conclude the season.

                Starts at 14m.

                    SF those are some nice looking fields. 👍

                    I’m thinking my youngest has decided which tractor colour he prefers.

                      Interesting to get her take on things though , one can always take something away even if it’s just one or two Tis bits of info
