@rhofford Check out Brevant’s 3018, it’s a LL variety. 2 years ago we grew it, it yielded 48 and the Dekalb on the next 1/4 did 50. This year it was a dog, 12-17bu behind but it was 5miles from the rest of the canola, got more rain at emergence which caused a crust. Through Bunge

Nexera canola

@rhofford Had a colony buy all of my rented land 18 months ago. Definitely changed things. Rented land can supplement land payments but it has its risks.

Of all the land u farm What percent do u own (vs rent)

@AggiesTwice @FarmerFrase When you buy grazon you have to sign off on a bunch of restrictions. I thought spraying along a waterway was one, I could be wrong. It does work well though and it can be sprayed by drone. A heavy dose of curtail will do the same job at a fraction of the cost

@FarmerFrase wonder if I could spray grazon on them in the fall drive down road with high clearance sprayer kinda thing. might have to look into it or if the residual would hurt my crop

Might be difficult for water to run if ditches are full of willows, easier to run across the field

Not sure if she had much of a choice as nobody else on this farm is fitting 40’ deep inside a 16” auger

Anyone have a front tire rim for a Case 3430 / New Holland P1060 seed cart? Will take a week to get a new one.

Do i know anyone near Anola MB? Need a favor got my sprayer tank stretched at my buddies house, and now his tractor can't lift it back up on the trailer. Anyone able to run down with their fwa to load it up?

@OOrsak Repromap has an app, I think it’s similar to iHunter. The only issue I’ve had is that the maps don’t seem to want to load quickly. Caching them helps for offline use, not sure if you can share maps nicely with others and each phone needs to pay for the RM map.

Is there anywhere online to get a digital RM map? Would like to make a map with highlighted fields for the new stone picker guy

Has anyone found a 30 gpm pump (12v) for their sprayer rinse tank? Thinking about going direct from the rinse tank to the tank rinse nozzles.

Has anyone found a rebuild kit for a Crary Revolution slip clutch?

@OOrsak Flax is on the stick list here. You do something on the list and your buddies get to hit you with a stick

Someone talk me off the ledge. I thought about growing flax this morning.

@rhofford @Freedom_speech1 I’d do it again with me and the Mrs.

@rhofford @Freedom_speech1 We just took our kids 8, 10, 12 to Cancun. Went to Xplor by Xcaret. Pretty good evening 5:30-11pm. Spendy and a good hour south by bus but worth it. 8 year old was a little small but we had a blast. maps.app.goo.gl/134oqL7UeZqwth…

not a big reader guy, but send me one book i should read on vacay thanks

@rhofford I’m sitting on the beach now reading “The Greatest Beer Run Ever”. Easy read, ballsy story. I’m enjoying it.

@rhofford Either: Endurance: Shackleton's Incredible Voyage by Alfred Lansing. It’s a historical record. Man those guys were tough. Thinking in Bets by Annie Duke. How to make better decisions with only part of the info.

@KelvinHeppner @UM_agfoodsci @realagriculture Thanks for coming this morning, always good to see fellow Aggies! Buckle up, could be an interesting political ride!

Back in Room 130 at @UM_agfoodsci today discussing Canadian politics, the looming Trump tariff threat, and why it's important to be engaged. Thanks to @ColinPenner for the invitation.

My brother and I made an app, we might be biased but we think it’s pretty cool. If you are looking for a solution to track machinery maintenance, and help with task organization on the farm check it out

@Andrew_Dalgarno I loves my disconnects

Farmers / electricians... Is everyone putting a disconnect at every unload auger and aeration fan? I wasn't planning to but electrician says I'm suppose to. 3phase 600v Each line has a fused lockable disconnect back at the 600v distribution tray.
