Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

[grassfarmer]

*Toot* *Toot* look at me!! takes 40 acres to store all my grain bags in a drought year !!
10 for the bags and 30 for the ego.

[the big wheel]

Green peas yields by field 33, 22, 28,
30, 18.
Yellow. 46, 38, 40, 48

Good colour slight bleach on some green
Green water best yielder and stood up best. It's been a while since so much difference in green and yellow usually mine are very close.

We got a fluke inch of rain here S of Regina on August 2nd. The crop us looking like it cant decide whether to just hurry up and finish or try to squeeze a last bit out of the unexpected moisture. Canola is grass green yet, flax turning and durum is mostly still green but with some lighter patches now.

I dont see us turning a wheel for at least 2 more weeks even with the heat wave.

Hey parasite have a great day!


Grass isn’t always greener in Manitoba.

[SASKFARMER3]

15 rows = 36 seeds average

42 plants per foot average

Math

42 x 36 X factor 35 lbs x .00116 = 61.38

Quick guess combine and scale will tell at harvest.

For the parasite that posts nothing, we’re going to need more bags Jim.


I still say our area is back to a normal growing season.

Flood years are drying up soon a memory.


Sprayed a section today zero sloughs, in 2010 it had 526 acres.

Sf3 - you bought a case combine finally ??

50 series case coming next yr..

Saw a guy chopping canola for silage today west of Edmonton. How hungry do the cows have to get in order to do this? Granted the crop had had a bit of hail but otherwise would likely have made a half decent canola crop.

We bought another one, just in Case. 😉 We are combining Eston Lentils. 10.5 inches of downpours in two days end of May flooded about 2/3 of the field. Then no real rain until Aug 2 when we got 1 1/2 inches. Lentils like it dry but not quite that dry. Like SF3 says, four timely rains make a bin buster, guess ours won’t bust. Thankful to get what we did with it being so dry to start.

Not that hungry - cows love canola silage and the feed value can be good. We fed it for a couple of years from salvage crops the neighbours had. It takes about 3 days for them to get used to the taste. High sulfur so best to mix it 50:50 with something else.

You are ?

No..maybe SF3 will have a bunch after he demos the red one this yr.lol.

Case and Deere will have twin rotors again to get to next class combine. Watch.

Trying to get the Fendt, Meg is it coming our way.

So far this weeks heat the plants are recovering at night. Next two days will tell but lighter soils are showing the stress.

Barley being swath last night coming home across the valley all way to Regina.

Twin Rotors - Ground breaking tech...



Average crop coming here. A few barley fields are suffering, can't grow roots fast enough

Don't let that sleek new "Transformer"(kid's toy) look fool you.... you better give it three years to get all the "new equipment" bugs exterminated from it.

You will never be AGCO stoopid anyway SF3...

Agco always forgets to put in all the bolts somewhere.
