14/7/21 vs 17/7/20. Really puts this season into focus atm. Big carrots hanging out there with current Canola pricing but you have to play the cards your dealt. A few hurdles to jump yet. @dyerjonathan @ryanwallis23 @BCG_Birchip @RobinsonLachie

First blackleg flower infection that I've seen this season. If your crop is flowering early and has infection, consider fungicide at 30% bloom.
