Blair heard some reports of Aphids above thresholds in lentil crops, here is a scouting guide from SPG

Syngenta has a great guide for Reglone Ion application timing in these crops. When spraying anything close to harvest time please check with possible buyers, and Keep It Clean to protect our markets.  A few people have had issues with leaves dying in cereals and the crop looking diseased when it was not.
People have tested for blights, disease, virus's and can't figure out what's going on. In the end it seems to be plant stress of some kind. A link to Dr. Brian Beres post Wheat Streak Mosaic Volunteer wheat is a concern in winter wheat crops as it can allow the transfer of virus's. Wheats a problem but other cereal crops are not impacted Alberta Fact Sheet Stripe Rust in Canada The Praire Crop Disease Monitoring Network is reporting stripe rust arriving in all provinces. https://prairiecropdisease.com/2024/07/12/stripe-rust-now-in-central-alberta-and-additional-reports-from-manitoba/ Keep in mind some varieties are rated better for this disease and some leaf tip necrosis can occur in some varieties in response to rust (browning of the leaf tip) Here is a comprehensive overview of rust risk https://prairiecropdisease.com/2024/07/17/mini-pcdmn-cereal-rust-risk-update-and-rust-impact-based-on-crop-growth-stage-and-variety-resistance-level-july-17-2024/ Bacterial Blight in Cereals Bacterial blight can impact cereals mid to late season. I have not heard too much this season regarding bacterial blight. Sask Wheat has a nice file showing what you are looking for: https://saskwheat.ca/wp-content/uploads/squarespace/pdf/ABBW-11249-BacteriaLeafStreak-Sheet_FA.pdf Kelly Tarkington and Mike Harding are featured in an article talking about the problem here Looking to sort out how much crop your sprayer is trampling vs hiring by air? A calculator is on Yorkton Aircraft's Website. Another reason to hire an airplane is immature seeds due to regrowth from a ground sprayer. On crops we plan to do multiple passes and or desiccate we may use a group sprayer as we will push the regrowth back down.  We have had a few questions about why you would use a fall triticale for forage? Fall triticale is ready about 1 week later vs fall rye so it can help you to spread silage workload. I also find you can seed the triticale later in the season vs hybrid rye allowing later planting in the fall while still suppressing weeds well in the spring. Tadeus also has great stand ability for higher fertility situations. x.com/blairbalog/status/1816223773051215923  We will be launching two new hybrid rye varieties, we are on our second sales season of Tadeus fall triticale and also launching Coldfront winter wheat. We have prices on most fall crops now. We now have tote bags of all 3 hybrid rye varieties in the warehouse, treated and ready to ship in 35 unit tote bags. Bulk seed is also ready. We also have winter wheat on hand, ready to ship. Hybrid Fall Rye SU Cossani - Grain type, drought tolerance and big grain yields New! SU Performer - Grain or forage, constant stable high yields with great winter hardinessNew! KWS Serafino - Grain or forage, low ergot risk, industry standard! Winter Wheat AAC Coldfront - Slightly earlier vs wildfire, 11% over check for yield, MR for FHB, VG winter survival, R to MR rust ratings New! AAC Wildfire - Industry standard, long season, MR to FHB, R to rust AAC Icefield - Hard White Winter Wheat (we do have buyers looking for farmers to grow this variety) JGL: [email protected] or Rogers Foods: [email protected] Winter Triticale: Tadeus - stands well, very early, tolerates later seeding, top yields, VG winter hardiness, large seeded New! More information about hybrid rye in general Contact Blair Balog at 403-634-4349 (call or text) or [email protected] for pricing or for any questions!  We had a customer give their feedback after taking off Tadeus for silage recently, and they were blown away! They averaged 21.9 MT/acre corrected to 63%! This cut was done around the soft dough stage. This variety has great standability, is shorter in stature (can help with standability) and produces massive heads that leads to great tonnage potential. Seed will be available again early August as we sold out last season!
