I tell you. Here in Manitoba the corn is drying down nicely. If this dry wether keeps going it might come off dry! Hah! Will see š

Finished binning the barley in the early morning hours last Wednesday and took advantage of the showery weather to finish swathing the last 350 acres of canola (a lot was close to 100% seed color change). It's been wet ever since but might get a chance to try the early swathed canola tomorrow before another few days of rain in the forecast. Did take advantage of the break to ship ten loads of barley to free up some bin space for the canola. We'll see soon if that was needed š.

We have shipped out some malt barley also. Frees up the bigger bins and makes less auger moves. Filling 2000bu hopper takes a lot of time.

Wrapped up canola over the weekend, it did better than expected which is very nice with the current price. Very thankful for it being in the bin as we're at over 2in of rain today with a nasty storm. No more rain or frost for 2 weeks and we can hopefully sneak off a good crop of beans yet without making ruts.

Just getting into the canola. Caught a shower early this morning, so didn't get going until mid afternoon and just nicely got rolling and caught another quick downpour. Just enough to shut things down again. I see some big rain amounts for the Winkler/Morden area. Looks like we might be in for some overnight in western Manitoba.

Everything up to beans and corn is 98% done around here. Some guys have started beans, I think the acres I'm doing will be ready as soon as this 3.5" and counting of rain drys off..

This Dekalb 2136 is almost 50% milk line which makes me feel like it will be a good crop. My sandblasted stuff is just about fully dented now so it needs time for sure yet. Hearing reports of a lot of sclerotinia in canola this year, normally a wash to spray but this year it gave a good payback.
