"Wet and Cold in May is great for Wheat and Hay"
Hadn't heard that expression before this year. Holy volume at mid-bud! Usually mow around 12mph , today I can't go 10mph

Hey @OntarioSoilCrop and whoever else is responsible, this SARPAL process is ridiculous! The window was only open 40min. Logged in fine, spent almost an hour filling it out. Only to get the big๐in return.

Hey @WheatPete , making N plans for hrw. Our experience is always after canola, 135-140N, but this year we also have a bunch following soybeans. Do we modify N rate there?

Hey @haysngraze, caught your interview re early interventions. Question around spring need for sulphur. It's being recommended to me to apply 85lbs of dry AMS to my alfalfa stands, most are >75% alfalfa, to meet sulphur needs. Approx cost $35-40/ac between prod app.Thoughts?

Hey @WheatPete , we got our hrw seed tested -- 92%. So if our target seeding rate is 1.6M, are we talking 1.6M viable seed or all seed?

Hey @haysngraze , strong looking new seeding, first flower , not alot of volume, critical harvest period days away, don't need the feed. Do I take it out, or do I leave it?

Thanks @3furrowsjd and @WheatPete for their advice last fall. Turned out to be our best field.

If the ground is fit, let er rip. Down here in Grey County I believe our optimal wheat planting window is closed by Sept 30. We are on lighter soils and have put wheat as late as Nov. 17th into proper soil conditions. Last fall our wheat was planted the first weekend of November

Awesome opportunity for a family without a dairy manager successor, that want to step back from the 365 of dairy, but still love the business. I will be that guy in 7-10 years.
