Local farmers on track for excellent crop
The Ministry of Agriculture’s weekly Crop Report has affirmed what the Saskatchewan’s Stockgrowers Association said earlier this week — farmers could be in store for an excellent crop year.
Crop development in most parts of the province is well ahead of normal, despite some rainfall this past week.
Rainfall ranged from 7 mm in the Kinistino area to 38 mm. in the Porcupine Plain area.
Porcupine Plain currently holds the regional record for the greatest amount of precipitation (148 mm) since April 1.
