Friday Crop Report on a Thursday. First week of June.

[furrowtickler]

My yields in 2015-19, were about 10% higher than 20-24. Oats were 25 percent higher.
Land hasn't paid for itself ever at the time of purchase as far as I know. It is very far from that now. I expect some retracement, I could see 20%. There is still cash on the sidelines, but I think the big spenders have spent.
Banks always sort and rank customers, they will know their top 10 and bottom 10. Some will be asked to leave!

It started here the past six months, a few very long time , 100 year farms were shown the door . Poor crops the past 5 years with no cash flow left to service debt .
Very sad to watch .
I suspect there will be more the next 12 months if there is not even an average crop come fall

We hit the rain lottery yesterday with our first rain since the snow melted, 6/10” drizzle over 10 hours. This should finish off germination of some seeds that were left in the dust. Will start spraying Monday hopefully these relentless winds will calm down.

Nothing here , less than two tenths.Went to Youngs on friday and they close at 5, shop manager said they are all caught up.No trades and farmers arent spending like before.We needed a service tech twice in seeding and they were in the yard in less than an hour both times.Terminals are calling daily looking for grain for July,most here are down to bin bottoms.Fires and Crop insurance is going to be tough on the provincial budget.

But the inputs to try to make those double yields now are close to the price of the income you got from the aforementioned yields.

Exactly. Who is really benefiting from more output of everything.

First rain since the snow melted.
Whoopi!

Geez. That won’t last long once the sun and wind return.

An inch over 24 hours, can't order it any better.
We were at 1/2" since snow, but had 2 feet on the level, all soaked into subsoil. Zero wet spots to seed around. Unusual May here. Ya WINDY half the time, humidity was 20% for weeks.
