Look good Chris. I hope the price is there for you. Seems like very few peas round here this year. Looks like your crops are progressing well. We have finally had the tap stop for two straight days here, and things perk up a bit I find when that happens...

Still discouraging to see drowning crops, but at least the higher areas have perked a bit, turning a bit greener.

May peas be 12 bucks and may yours yield 70 bushels an acre!!!

And thank your lucky stars you don't have a "Canadian Pea Board" becuase prices are moving to 12 bucks.

[freewheat]

Bucket, we all know the wheat board raises the price of ALL crops. C'mon!!!

Bucket and Freewheat You won't get $12 cause you'll Sell them (excuse me Market them) off the combine for $7.80 and then come Jan they will be worth $12

[freewheat]

Chris will get 12 bucks cuz he can wait. And the wheat board will make sure he gets that 12 bucks, cuz they raise the prices on all grains.

Klause, be glad its not 2012, and the wheat board is gone, cuz the price of peas will drop on you in their absence. Be glad you snuck in a crop of peas before that fateful day...lol

7.80, what the **** are you talking about. They are currently running closer to 9.00 and with the market in North Dakota washed out pushing $10.00 within a week.

Sold some at 8.25 after seeing the crop coming and for some cash. If I sell now at 9.00 or 10.00 at least I am averaging up nicely.

Show me anything that the cwb does to average up.

[freewheat]

bucket. I think hes talking initial payments again...

[bucket]

When have you ever seen an initial at 7.80.

Its funny, the cwb has a clean slate for durum this year. The current asking prices are 18.00 a bushel and the best they can pay, maybe, is 12 bucks for the new crop. How does anyone thinking taking a 6 dollar spread computes to the cwb costs of ten cents a bushel to market our grain?


klause:

Back to the peas, what variety and what seeding rate? Looks like a leafy variety.
