        I posted this in another thread, but it is blowing so hard here this morning in the NE, not sure I have ever seen it this windy. I am sure I will have some CS to reseed on some lighter land I rented.

          Its sickening already, wind forecast for the next two days but not as bad as yesterday.

          It wears you down.

                In spite of persistent strong wind, sky has stayed fairly clear of blowing dust. Do not see soil coming off any local fields. Not saying it will not happen but a credit to local growers to resist excessive tillage that left soil prone to drifting in past.

                  Funny but not ....
                  isn’t this farming sooooo easy eh ?
                  Nothing to it , seed a crop , take summer off , collect government subsidies, harvest and make nothin but money 👎👎👎👎.
                  Reality is so far from that it’s ridiculous

                    It would take quite a six pack to be able to do that.

                    But my keg gets more looks from the ladies.

                        At least it died down overnight, here anyway 👍

                          Up to 40 Kph today
                          40-60 tomorrow

                          Peas getting close to spraying. I have 80 acres that I can hardly justify spraying, CLEAN. Dare me not to. The other 240, not so much, the Imazethapyr and Authority I applied post seeding pre emerge could have used a rain to activate and move it down.
                          Can't go back with Odyssey, would be double rating the Imazethapyr in the same year. Will have to be Viper.
                          Why is Bentazon alone so expensive? To me Metribuzin is a waste of time and money.

                            Yep, the wind is starting to get to me. Blew off my glasses twice yesterday just about stepped on them. Eyes sore from dust on back roads. Today is a great spray morning but the wind will be 60 km plus again today. Friday is another insane day ahead of the storm that is supposed to come. One custom guy going yesterday all day. Come on people this has to stop your not doing anyone any good.

                              If peas are clean I would leave them as well 👍
                              Not worth the potential crop injury
