Saskatchewan harvest complete as farmers await snow
Now that harvest is complete in all regions of the province, producers are looking for steady precipitation before the ground freezes and winter arrives.Moisture conditions are a concern for many producers, especially those who have struggled through the season with infrequent and minimal rainfalls. The province said even the regions that started the year with a surplus of moisture are now becoming very dry and producers are hoping for rain soon.
“Significant precipitation will be needed this fall and over winter to replenish moisture levels in the soil and dugouts,” the Crop Report said. Heading into winter, topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 22 per cent adequate, 35 per cent short and 43 per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as 16 per cent adequate, 37 per cent short and 47 per cent very short.Many soils in the province are too dry for proper germination of winter cereals and producers have decided not to risk seeding winter wheat and fall rye.
