Many producers were able to continue with harvest operations last week as 83 per cent of the crop is now in the bin. This is up from 69 per cent last week but remains behind the five-year (2014-2018) average of 93 per cent for this time of year. Many areas received very little precipitation which meant more time in the field for producers. Warm, dry and windy days are needed for producers to keep making harvest progress. Significant harvest progress was made in many regions this past week, with the northeastern region being the most advanced with 94 per cent of the crop now combined. The west-central region has 93 per cent combined, the northwest region 89 per cent, the southwest region 88 per cent, the southeast region 78 per cent and the east-central region 66 per cent.

Ninety-three per cent of barley, 89 per cent of mustard, 84 per cent of spring wheat, 83 per cent of durum, 82 per cent of chickpeas, 79 per cent of canola, 77 per cent of canary seed, 45 per cent of flax and 37 per cent of soybeans are now in the bin. An additional 17 per cent of canola is swathed or is ready to straight-cut. Little precipitation was received across the province last week, however the Rhein area reported 12 mm of precipitation and the Barthel area 11 mm. Across the province, topsoil moisture conditions on cropland are rated as 18 per cent surplus, 76 per cent adequate, five per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 10 per cent surplus, 81 per cent adequate, seven per cent short and two per cent very short. Some fields remain saturated with excess water, particularly in southern and east-central regions.

One year ago Many producers were able to return to the field and finish harvest after several weeks of cool and wet weather. Ninety-two per cent of the 2018 crop was in the bin. Much of the crop came off tough and was being placed into grain dryers.

The majority of crop damage this past week was due to lodging, strong winds, and frost. Geese and wildlife continue to cause damage by feeding on swathed crops. There continues to be many reports of significant downgrading at the elevator due to crops sprouting. The majority of the crop coming off is tough or damp and is being placed into aeration bins and grain dryers.

Significant harvest progress was made in the southeastern region this past week. Seventy-eight per cent of the crop is now combined, up from 62 per cent last week but remaining well behind the five-year (2014-2018) average of 95 per cent for this time of year. An additional 15 per cent of the crop is swathed or ready to straight-cut. The region will need a good stretch of warm and dry weather to complete harvest.

The region received very little precipitation last week. The Frobisher area received 4 mm, the Glenavon area eight mm and the Indian Head area five mm. The Moosomin area has received the most precipitation since April 1 (562 mm).

Topsoil moisture conditions have slightly improved in the region with the recent warm, windy and dry weather. Many fields remain soft and saturated from excess moisture and are unable to hold heavy equipment for long periods of time. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated at 46 per cent surplus and 54 per cent adequate while hay land and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as 13 per cent surplus, 86 per cent adequate and one per cent short. Crop District 1A and 2A are reporting that 67 per cent and 80 per cent, respectively, of the cropland have surplus topsoil moisture at this time.

The majority of crop damage this past week was due to lodging, strong winds and frost. Geese and wildlife are feeding on swaths and crops continue to be downgraded at the elevator due to sprouting. Much of the grain is coming off tough or damp and is being placed into grain dryers and aeration bins.

Producers are busy moving cattle, drying grain, hauling bales and combining when the weather and field conditions allow.

Crop District 9AW – Shellbrook, North Battleford, Big River and Hafford areas Crop District 9B – Meadow Lake, Turtleford, Pierceland, Maidstone and

Lloydminster areas

Producers in the northwestern region enjoyed another week of tremendous harvest progress thanks to warm and dry weather. Producers were able to combine almost one quarter of the crop for a second week in a row and are now sitting at 89 per cent of the crop combined. This is up significantly from 65 per cent last week but does remain slightly behind the five-year (2014-2018) average of 91 per cent for this time of year. An additional eight per cent of the crop is swathed or ready to straight-cut. The region will need a few days of warm and dry weather in order to get the rest of the crop off.

The majority of the region reported little to no rainfall, the Barthel area reported 11 mm of precipitation, the Meadow Lake and Frenchman Butte areas four mm, the Turtleford and Lloydminster areas three mm and the Neilburg area 0.3 mm.

The Pierceland area received 16 mm of precipitation, the Meadow Lake area nine mm, the Barthel area 11 mm, the Turtleford area two mm and the St. Walburg area four mm. The Turtleford area has received the most precipitation since April 1 (436 mm).
