FTLComm - Tisdale June 1, 1999
With most of the crop in the ground in the Tisdale area it is now time for things to grow and from these images it looks like these early plantedcrops are doing just that.
These pictures were taken along highway #3 within about four miles of Tisdale North toward Nipawin. From what I could see the canola, barley and wheat crops in the pictures are all up and doing well.
The pictures were taken around 6:00 and it had clouded over but did not rain. However, things are drying out with the steady winds we have been experiencing and these new crops could probably uses a drink.
I drop five miles North before turning back and only one seeding operation was observed. Which is more then I had expected to see. Custom spray units seem to be on the highways all around so it would seem that they are busy. All three sample pictures appear to be very clean but at this stage and from distance shots like this it is hard to tell.
Compare these pictures with those taken a year ago just East of Tisdale.
