A low temperature in the region of 28 deg. Canola fields I looked at yesterday in the Starkweather area were fine. I do not expect any wide spread frost damage to crops in our area. Some emerged potato leaves froze in the Cando area. Small grains are emerging to 2 leaf.
Flea beetles are quiet for now.
No other insect problems yet. Sunflower, dry bean and soybean planting is occurring. Much durum remains to be seeded. Stands of early seeded Canola and flax are improving due to rain wetting seedbeds. Wild oat seedlings are common along with most other common weeds.
