Combines Sitting As Of Late

Manitoba Agriculture says there was little to no harvest progress made over the past week because of the rainfall, high humidity and cool temperatures.
 
Progress remains steady at about 65 per cent complete.
 
Yields to date are variable based on seasonal rainfall and soil moisture availability.
 
Most of the cereal harvest is complete, with canola sitting at about 85 per cent. Provincially, soybeans are at 20 per cent.
 
Dugout levels are very low.

Video: Dry Farming, Deer Fencing, and Cover Crops in the Paths with Eric Nordell

We cover: today I am so excited to share this conversation with my buddy Eric Nordell of Beech Grove Farm in Pennsylvania to chat about, well, a lot of things. Eric and his wife Anne have run beech grove farm since 1983 and they do things a little differently (like farming with horses) but they dry farm which we discuss, they use some cover crops in the paths in interesting ways (also discussed) and in fact, we get into a whole digression about their deer fencing that you’re gonna wanna hear.
