Hey there, fellow farmers and agricultural enthusiasts! 🌾 It's time for our weekly harvest update. Even though overall progress is steady, the rain and high humidity have been giving some regions a bit of a hard time.

The total provincial harvest progress is at 68%, which trails behind our five-year average of 83%. The southwest is leading the charge with an impressive 80% completed harvest!

This week, we’ve wrapped up winter wheat and fall rye, with field peas almost done at 99%. More excitingly, many farmers have started combining canola, with 42% already in the bag! 🌻

Let’s touch on the weather: we saw minimal rain across the province overall, with some areas like Rhein receiving up to 44 mm. Unfortunately, the much-needed topsoil moisture is below adequate levels in many regions. Don’t forget to monitor your pastures, as conditions are decreasing slightly!

Remember, harvest season can be stressful! If you ever feel overwhelmed, don’t hesitate to reach out to the Farm Stress Line at 1-800-667-4442. We're in this together!

Stay safe out there, and let’s keep an eye on those crops!
