      When you guys are saying no wheat, is that more specifically Hard Red? What about feed wheat? I haven't seeded it much and not sure on yield potential, and fertilizer requirements. Do you think it is just as poor as hard red?

        My opinion only.

        It's all the same shit. If they need wheat they will pay for garbage like a few years ago and like they did with durum last year.

        We have quality wheat compared to others.

        It's all bullshit. Movement is the problem here.

        But it can turn quickly to a short supply.

          If you have a ready feed market, go for it. Here we have a lot of hog barns, and they pay pretty good most of the time. So to me it makes sense. On my farm, CPS red yields a good 10 or 20 bushels more than hrs under the same fertility.

          This does not translate everywhere. It seems to hold true though in wet areas. Also in areas like mine with wet falls, it is often hard to get hrs to grade well, and even harder to get protein. The highest protein I ever got was 13.4 or so, using 125 lbs of n. All CPS has to do, is weigh 58 lbs. and have reasonable fuz levels.

          So for me, it is a no brainer. Be aware that some of the utility wheats, have a wickedly long growing season, and compounded by weather like mine, it just won't ever mature.

              Peas are risky if weather turns wetter and cool in spring. Seems lots are looking into peas and flax is blue blue blue in our area this summer.

                Old crop pea bids dropped. Considering India's problems I am wondering if that isn't just a head fake?

                  Bucket, from what I hear, I think the buyers have booked A SCHWACK of peas.

                  Maybe that is part of it? I agree though, the cheap buggers may be head faking.

                    Maybe so but if India has 5 million hectares of pulse damage. I am thinking they will buying every tonne they can.

                    Not sure india will be dropping their bids to get them.
