Well, it is too wet to harvest so may as well work pea stubble every 8 years fields get worked.

Crop report thread is certainly quiet. We got done our wheat finally after weather and breakdowns held us back. On canola now. Nice looking canola just not the yields one would like. Quite certain our average yield will have a 3 in front of it now that we have done about 30% of our canola. Looks like about 60% of last year.

Setting the combine is always a fun challenge. Certainly happy with Mad finger grate concaves in module 1 on my Case combine. I was quite surprised that closing my pre-sieve actually reduced losses, made the combine easier to set and gave a cleaner sample. Learn something new every year..

Been not much going on for near 2 weeks now in area .
1.5 days last week
too wet for most field work
most waiting to spray as another flush is happening and fields still soft .
kinda like the doldrums out in the ocean with a sail boat where not much can go on

Showers are forecast for tomm for our area, this is really starting to drag out.Anyone who swathed has been finished for awhile , they were able to start earlier in the year and run longer days and faster speed.If i had the manpower to run swather we would have been done long ago also.This waiting on standing canola i am not sure is the answer.

Always seems there's cattle stuff to do when combines can't roll. Bales to haul ,put haying equipment away bring spreaders up to shop to prep for corral cleaning. FIX FIX FIX Son's working drowned out spots in canola ground to work down weed spots. Pre pass might be more popular on the farm next spring. Beans are loving this weather last field of wheat not so much.

Tried my good canola yesterday, 12.2 moisture 5.6 green 2.2 sprouted. Will need 2 weeks at this weather.

Time wastes away in years like this.

Waiting for a better tomorrow turns into days.
Days turn into weeks.
The days keep getting shorter.
Soon 4 hrs will be a good day.

Glad we took the 6.5 -7% moisture canola off when we did…
