      Fungicide budget here was spent on grasshopper spray.

        Will be watching here now for diamond backs next week or so . They tend to show up on damaged / stressed crops .
        Have not heard anything yet but if they are here they will show up soon
        Surely hope there is none , some canola fields , and big areas in other fields not worth trying to save between trampling , fuel , depreciation, time and wear and tear .

          It wasn’t even “fun deciding” to spray. The lack of rain and the sun did a great job.

          Drew’s prognostication is summed up in one word … BLEAK.

              Noticed nobody is hauling anything. Terminal look like a ghost town.

              Is there no old crop around or did guys lock up the bins knowing whats coming.

                You just answered your own question.
                There may not be much old crop left. I’m keeping for seed, who knows what’s ahead yet.

                There are contracts being bought out already.

                Sad times!!

                  Do you leave test strips to see if it makes a difference? Historically I spray some canola with fungicide. But I can’t say I see a difference in yield. Wheat and barley certainly but with canola very rare we get enough rain to cause an issue. Our canola crops are starting to look really good but to late to spray them now anyways.

                    My buyer at the local crusher said last week was her busiest week since she started 7 years ago. Buying up lots of old and new crop.

                      Weather network did add rain to the forecast for Tuesday.
                      Fingers crossed it shows up for all but never trust a weather forecast!
