Where is the Awesome Canola Crops?

[SASKFARMER3]

Well the perfect field I saw at Edgeley doesn't look as good now. Since after a week with little moisture and windy its now OK. But after the traveling I did the last week and now up to lake today to Canora Kamsack area. All look the same patchy thin fields. So where in Sask Alberta, Manitoba is the ultimate canola crop.

We saw some unbelievable Canola South-East of Regina ( approx. 5 miles). maybe too thick if no more moisture.

Our canola looks pretty good overall, some early frozen stuff has come back quite good. However we are quite dry and without rain the crop will be below average. BIGGEST worry is fall frost our latest canola is bolting or just starting to flower some reseeded and late seeded stuff around here is just starting to cover the ground.

So 60 days after you see the first flower, crop s/b ready to swath given NORMAL growing conditions.

That puts it at September 06.

I've seen some canola crops that are 10-14 days away from first flower - so Sep 20 max - and what about canola that just germinated after the June 23-26 rains?

So then our crops should be ready to combine 1st of october. Ha intime for the tourental fall rainfall. So one in all of the three provinces. Again SE of regina will drive by that area next week on way out to farm. Got to see.
Yes the market allways knows whats best. HA HA HA HA HA HA AH AH AH>

I will post the link when it happens but thought I could post the crop condition rating of the most recent Alberta crop report. Most crops are rated fair and poor with 83 percent of the crop. Breaking out the poor side, 52 percent of the canola cropa and 37 to 38 percent of cereals are rated in poor condition. About 17 to 18 percent of the crop is rated good.

Some canola around weyburn as good as i have ever seen-minus the calendar factor.

Lots average.

On average our first fall frost is in the first week of Sept.
