Ok, I'm going to start today's report with the PM and his government. I read the Bio of a lot of his backbenchers and wow he got some quality people to run. Sad part none of these qualified people were put in Cabinet or on committees. So the lady that crossed the floor and not just crossed tore Trudeau and his gov a new asshole. Maybe there are others who realize he is a total brainless twit. Nafta they wonder why it's not getting negotiated properly well look at our fool that's in charge. I really think the Polling companies that say Trudeau will win are so full of Shit it's not funny. I emailed Nanos That, he sent me a nice email back stating I was banned from his site. Wow, what a loser.
Ralph quit even if he put you on another high paying extra job. Just quit before your embarrassed.
Ok, the next thing that pisses me off is the New STat Can Screw the Market feel good we can't do our job right so we're going high tech. Well, it sucks and is about as useless thing I have ever seen. Yes, farmers fudge a bit but this isn't working either.
Here is some news that's not getting any attention. $11 Billion dollars of the crop is in the field under water under snow in shit mud etc. No all I hear is were ahead of the average. Well WTF, if mother nature decides to piss around, does anyone really think well get a Miricle harvest in November. You can see panic setting in with facebook posts of guys taking canola and yes they have a dryer that does maybe 500 an hour and they are harvesting thousands an hour. Hm, yea the canola in the bin will be just fine till the dryer drys it. Hey, news at 11 you morons our wet bin feeding the dryer has to be cleaned every second day as canola starts to heat sticking to the sides when your doing 20 or under canola. But it will be so fine at that with cold air. WTF are guys just not getting it.
Manitoba crop report on Monday. No change in the harvested area we had moisture but were ahead of the average. Well WTF.
So here is the Sask Report.
We squeaked to just the 50% done with harvest 2018. Had A shower then friday and sat were able to get two extra bags off that took us to 50% completed.
Then it rained 1.2 in and well take it but all week the weather was cloudy cool and damp misty foggy till yesterday the sun came out. Farmers came out and played test the crop all over the place. Well, all went home with their tail between their legs it was to tough. STanding canola 13.7 and HRS 20.1. But one farm was taking flax not sure how that was dry. Very few grain dryer systems in our area so could be interesting. Also, some of the ones who are done are saying they harvested no dry cereals till the last few days of harvest. Aeration doesn't really do anything but keep grain from spoiling.
HRS is almost all off in our areas. A few with extra wheat acreage or just seeding half canola half wheat still have HRS standing in fields. No swaths left. Yields for late HRS is good but didn't fill to the top like the early fields. Overall yields of hrs in our area are anywhere from 50 to 80. But that is based on Fert program and rain events.
Flax is coming off and after the frost a week ago its easy to cut. Less than last year on some.
Peas are off and some real good and some suck.
Oats is coming off ok for yield but lighter.
Barley is all off except a few that seed it last and if swath the geese and ducks and rain did its damage. Early had normal yield later way less.
Pastures liked the rain but need way more. Late greenfeed missed the rain by a month.
Canola is the crop that's left and either straight or swath no one was going yesterday. Today lots will go but for some reason, the temp has climbed since 4 am and the rain is on its way NE. Don't have much hope for today I'm thinking for our area. Rain is now at 60% up from 40% last night.
Canola yields are normal for our area to slightly below last years levels.
Ah, the wild horses that haven't seen an owner for over 10 to 15 years. No one claims ownership. Stallion is in charge try to get near them and local Cowboys and ones brought in have had zero luck to get them. It's the RMS responsibility but they are busy writing letters. Crop insurance pays for the wild boar that some idiot let go when he went broke but real wild horses tough luck MR farmer. They do major damage. When I bought this farm there were 3 to 5, last year 15 this year 22. The big problem that's getting bigger each year and like everything we have to go through proper chanels to deal with it. HAHAH
