[QUOTE="Alberta farmer, post: 610171, member: 8978"] Nesikep: I assume you must irrigate? How does that work out pricewise? Must be a lot of extra work? Do you irrigate pasture? In central Alberta we usually get around 15-16 inches of rain during the growing season...and who knows how much snow! Some years it can be pretty brutal. We can grow fairly decent crops though. The barley went slightly over 100 bu/acre, the canola a little over 50 bu/acre and first cut hay(alfalpha/timothy) around 2.5 tons acre(a cold dry spring). There is a bit of wheat grown but not much of anything else as we have a short growing season. [/QUOTE]
