Farmer talk

Some of the big guys have started seeding but the soil thermometer tells me I should wait.

Big guys have to many acres so have to start early. Later crops will catch up and less risk of freezing the crop.

If any farmer would like a gopher exterminator. I have a .17HMR and a .223 bench gun, that need to see sunshine again.

My yearly poisoning program has run me out of target practice. Real world problems

Well seed 21 in the ground for most part, looking like the fall rye never survived the winter very well, plan to reseed this week and maybe play the feed grain market since it’s very strong..

Peas and lentils off to a much slower start with cold temps overall, but coming along, gives some time to do burn off thou..

Follow a few India brokers and they been saying it’s the year of pulse crops, let’s hope they correct .. majority ac into it

Canola now at 16$, wheat over 9, and lentils over 20.. it’s maybe a good time to farm once again.. need moisture thou soon

Rained about 8mm the last 2 days. Haven't seeded a single acre yet, hope to start soon.

Your in that fake rain ground, wish we could even get your 8mm.. would help us so much more

Remember going to a school in Leftbridge research many years back and Ross mackenzie stating that there findings after may 1st was 1.5 bu yield loss per day.. can’t remember what crops it was but on irrigation dirt

Nephew has started seeding but none of mine yet. Pretty dry here as well. I doubt we got even 8mm

Takes a 6mm to make a puddle in yard and none to be seen

Fred, stick to farming posts!!

You make so much more sense typing about something you know instead of what you don't know.

Crazy how we're only about an hour apart and there still is free standing puddles on the pavement and in my yard.

As soon as the sun starts making heat again, my grass will be shooting up. As it's already a nice shade of green

I hope you all get the moisture that is needed this spring.

Really don't need anything else costing 500% more than it's worth lol

Crested wheat grass is greening up but the lawn grasses are still brown here. Need a good soaker

Just out of curiosity, what's the price differential between this building size in wood compared to steel?
