could someone tell me what that tall yellow flowered weed is that is choking out the kochia in the pulse fields down between Leader and Burstall?

[shtferbrains]

Lots of tansy in the ditch around here this yr.
Can be a constant fight in pasture an hay, but have never seen it in fields that get tilled.

Edit your probably referring to the herbicide tolerance Canola weed?

[Herc]

the whole seeding outfit will be around $650,000
yes crazy , but …… just a new Bourgault 1300 bus cart is $900,000 ….. then add drill , then add the $1 mill tractor to pull it .
It’s all crazy , but it just might pay to think differently
Time will tell

$900k? must be a typo cause they only list for $700k, take one home for maybe $480k tops…..

Its a tall small sunflower type weed growing in both ditches and fields and defintly not tansy or herb resiistant canola...I have much of both of those. Wish I took a pic.

Likely wild sunflower, there’s the odd patch around here on the edge of fields. They are thick a seem to choke/shade most everything underneath.
