Friday Crop Report to n a Thursday. Last days of may

[TASFarms]

Flixweed in my canola stubble is getting ate by flea beetles. Flixweed just looks ill. Fall package makes weeds weak. Should have got it applied earlier maybe they wouldn’t even germinate. No chemicals in fall package

Hot and windy down in my area. crops are not responding well. Hay crop in my opinion is going to be short or none at all on dryland ( which is all I have), spring crops are rooting down , but relentless wind. A few guys I have talked to have made the comment that how many more years of this ( poor to very poor crop ) can you take before you have to be honest about whether or not your operation is feasible. It is only the end of May , but you have to wonder about how much the old crops can withstand.

Don't let them guys paying $6000 for a cow calf pair fool you that they have no money for hay.

Hay prices are totally supply and demand.They also follow feed grain prices .If a shortage feed grain pellets or whatever is supplemented.Also market is usually fairly close as trucking costs adds up.summer pasture prices may go up though with higher prices as those that want to expand that is usually their weakest Link.Also on a big hay crop year if you carry over for better prices quality goes down quick on the hay .Not like grain in the bin.
