Pushed Canola Harvest in Pictures- Part One
Mon, 07 Jun 2010 4:48:32 CDT
Winter Canola Harvest is underway- and a big fan of this alternative crop for wheat producers is Canadian County Extension Educator Brad Tipton. Tipton believes that this crop has the potential to save wheat production in the state of Oklahoma, as it allows farmers to finally break an escalating problem with competing weeds that are showing up in the wheat fields more and more each growing season.
These pictures help tell the harvest story this year of the Winter Canola Harvest in Brad's County- Canadian County in Central Oklahoma. The top picture is of a field of winter canola that was pushed back on May 27th - more pictures about that process is found on our website by clicking here.
The second picture is of this same field on June 5th- ready for harvest. The last picture in this set is of the combine- in the field- picking up the canola for harvest. More pictures follow in additional webstories.
First Picture is of Pushed Canola on May 27, then that same field June 5 ready for harvest and finally the third picture is the harvest starting up.
