Here is one for your collection SF3.
4430 HFWD.

Are they old/rare enough yet to be collectors items? Or still just an idea with a bad reputation that no one wants to use?

Didn’t even really rain enough to shut the combines down here. Grains still coming in.

Blaithin, are you paying $15.50 for durum, close to 16% moisture?

Will guarantee there is frost here in areas , that temp is at airport , usually the warmest reading on calm mornings
Should go for a drive but don’t need to ruin my day this early

Scott research station SW of here looks to be coldest reading
But there will be other areas colder

We're basically finished in our area. Some durum low spots to clean up and a 120 ac SC canola trial. Area average would be around 40%. Our yields aren't single digits, but hearing lots, especially in areas NW or straight south of us. Our yields are disappointing for the stand though. Everything just plain ran out of gas. Grasshoppers are doing damage in lentils and canola. Early seeded will be the best, some June seeded crops either never germinated, were eaten by grasshoppers or died after coming up, as there are big portions of some fields that are bare.

The trade doesn’t believe one word you have just said. They do like to see you aren’t single digits, hey i don’t either for your sake.

Finished harvest 3rd wk Aug, pretty much tells the story, too bad the crooks can’t understand that.

There will be more at the lake Sep long then Aug long when we should be there.
