Friday Crop Report on a Thursday, second week August.

[biglentil]

Seed pod weevil damage is showing up huge. Canola is getting it from all sides. Lots of money spent spraying canola this year.

Canola council recommends waiting till 10% flower, I think they are out to lunch was getting 5x to 10x threshold in early bud and silenced em. They never came back.

Yuck. What a year. Even the good areas are struggling.

in our area ( sturgeon county) its.. no bueno.

now up to...ALL ac of our peas yield assessed at

Zip.zilch. nadda. 0


Have about 500 ac of canola will be same thing.


One of the chiefs of fcc is coming out next week for a visit to edmonton area. Hes doing a quick farm tour to see how ugly the area is and we got volunteered.

Im gonna mention lowering their interest rates a solid....11 to 34 times.

Interestingly enough i was told that FCC was the first crew to request loan repayment from Monette Farms and thats what started the whole she -bang.

Harvest , other than getting stuck, will be a breeze.
basically 60 % of our acres will be combined with a disc.

At the very least get the Monette rate. Something like 1% below prime and principal written off.

Every farmer should copy their MO . If they manage their way out of this clusterphuck.
