    Only one year, 1991 called for ZERO added N and it was correct. 60 bu wheat happened.

    It is your team's job to provide information. It is yours to interpret and make the money.

Barley yields sucked here until I inadvertently did a side by side trial of urea/11-52 and urea/mesc. Same nitrogen and phosphorus levels but 20 bushels better with mesc blend. Tried again in 21’ on another field in the drought but barley was still in the 80’s. Last year didn’t use mesc and barley sucked. My bins are full of urea/mesc. Is it the safer nature of mesc vs 11-52 or is it the sulphur? I run stealth pr double shoot so separation is good and a 20# rate of actual p is really stuff all. So what’s going on? Im a cowboy hill farmer. My remedy is usually seed it to grass and alfalfa but can’t do that on every acre.
      You mean MESZ from Mosaic?
      Sorry, I leave the chemistry and theory to someone else. I just have to make decisions lol.
      I think we are pushing rather old information and the ratios of the 4 macros more important. So wag possibly is the S. And the P right with N in same granule makes it easier to find. That could facilitate more P usage. Sounds good.

        We do every acre every year except the alfalfa
        And then our agrologist tells us what to put

          Sask budget.
          1 billion surplus.
          1st pic they show is a oil pump.
          Not a EV charger.
          So when oil is not used where is the $$$ going to come from?

              "Germany's Transport Ministry sees no need to rush combustion engine phase-out deal with EU

              Saying Germany needs a backup before agreeing to EU plans."


              A lot of the enthusiasm has gone out of the believers .

                  Why does the govt to solicit votes, always turn to supply push policies that never work? Artificial demand is still artificial.

                      So are you suggesting we should continue to use very inefficient gasoline ICE engines that only put 20% of the total fossil energy in to moving a vehicle forward, when EVs can transfer 80-90% of their energy for the same purpose?

                      Oil will have uses going forward, but burning it and wasting 80% in ICEs in a carbon emission constrained world is not a good use of it and can never be justified, just because we need government tax revenue from the oil industry.

                      Once we get through the transition to lower costs EVs, most consumers would happily put the massive efficiency gains of EVs in their own pocket, than give it to the oil companies who don't even cover all their cleanup costs and environmental damage during periods of high profitability.

                        Question is where is Gov.going to get their $$$ from?
                        Tax the shit out of EV vehicles.
                        To support health care etc..

                          Oil and gas revenues will not dry up completely because oil has other uses than just for ICEs

                          Surely governments can figure out how to replace revenues from oil and gas especially since direct revenues are currently only 5%

                            Yes, TAX EV when all are captive to it. See how smart Gov is?

                            Decreasing costs? BS, ever increasing raw materials cost due to scarcity, will cancel that and increase costs of EV.

                            Dream on.

                              Chuck2, Saskatchewan like Alberta is considered a have province, therefore I believe Saskatchewan like Alberta would pay more to Ottawa in personal and corporate tax then it receives back in federal transfers. So your pie chart is quite laughable as Saskatchewan residents and businesses would have payed more than that to Ottawa in the first place.

                                And regardless, such figures are quite meaningless in reality. For example, Saudi Arabia calculates that oil at gas only account for less than 1/3 of their gdp. In reality, if you removed that revenue, the rest of those economic sectors would cease to exist. There would be no government programs, no retail sector etc. Same thing is true here of course. All of the spin-off economic benefits of the energy sector are counted separately as their own category.
