Wheat grading

[furrowtickler]

Took some samples for moisture to elevator yesterday around noon
They flat out said all hrsw will be graded a two or less now. Definitely a colour change in ours . Will be watching price spread close now next 10 days .
I guess we will see who needs wheat and who does not , probably dictate grade as much as anything. End of the day the grade may be meaningless, if you get the price you want , does not really matter what they call it I guess .
Got rolling yesterday afternoon on some stuff that missed the late day rain Thursday night .
Started at 17 , hit 14.5 around 7 pm
Hopefully a long next few days to get wheat off
If you’re able to harvest , stay safe . Long days ahead .
Environmental Can shows sun and warm next 5 days
Weather Network shows showers every evening after a few days .
Take er day by day , and quit lookin probably best

Hope we can still get a 2 here

Was kinda taken back at the smugness of the elevator buyer , but just smiled and said thanks and walked out . Harvest will be done and grain will go east or west to those who will buy , not take the grain and they will be looking at an empty driveway like last year , their choice

Why, do you have JD combines?

Still holding a 1 easily here. Some bleaching but no downgrading factors.

When it gets less rain than desert durum does in Arizona its going to hold its colour.

Will tell today how wheat looks , grading and pricing will be interesting this next month.
A few done , some close to done , a few have not started wheat yet .
Standing Canola was still 13.4 yesterday afternoon .

Some areas east of here had more rain this past 5 days than all of summer .
