The day has finally come to harvest the winter canola and with luck, on our side, we also start winter wheat harvest...completing the harvest "doubleheader".

Watching this makes me miss driving truck during harvest. Instead of the buggy loading a tractor with bins to the grain elevator, it loaded into a 54' grain trailer on the old International and I groove it down to the grain elevator at the Port about an hour away. Two of us were back and forth all day alternating to keep it going without shutting down to wait. Hot, long, dusty days, but it was peaceful and beautiful.

If you plan on growing canola you should get a side knife cutter for your header - it will lower loss of seeds. Also you should check average number of days of frost since canola is prone to easily die at lower temperatures. My dad used to grow it foe 15 years and it was my favourite crop, but now he's into vegetables.

Who else loves the way he says “so” 😂 😆

Don't be afraid to turn your fan speed up!! To avoid plugging your sieves, its harder to blow out a round seed, then you think! Nice crop of canola!!

Ya he’s like a teacher lol he’s very smart and is with a very smart woman they’re great people love there videos

In Europe we put side Cutter/knives and Header extensions on the combine, makes the harvest easier and reduces the yieldloss on Canola... Great Vlog. By the way, 4, 4 t/ha is definitely not bad and Greetings from Austria :-D

Always enjoy your videos Mark! Makes me feel like I am part of the farming process! Can't wait to hear the canola bushel numbers! Have a great week!!!

Wow!! Great footage Jack!!
Support your local farmer!
There is nothing better than buying your veggies, fruit, beef jerky etc...from a stand on the side of the road. Stay blessed Brock Family!! 💦🌱🌞💯✌

Mark, I think quite a few growers of Canola here in Western Australia (South west) Swath or cut it down, while it is still slightly green, so it doesn't break the pods, and then let it dry out on the ground in windrow form, as then supposedly it won't suffer from wind damage and drys out nicely to be harvested at a later date !!
Plus I think they get a higher yield doing it that way. Maybe you could use your contacts from when you were over here touring around and pick their brains for the better knowledge or have them put you in contact with somebody that harvests Canola. I know that there is a lot of Growers of Canola over here !!
