Report number 25, Oct 19, 2017 For the Period October 10 to 16, 2017

Harvest is essentially complete for producers in the province, with 98 per cent of the crop now in the bin, up from 94 per cent last week, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s weekly Crop Report. The five-year (2012-2016) average for this time of year is 94 per cent harvested. There are still some crops, such as flax, soybean and canola, left to harvest, and most of these producers will only need another week or two of warm and dry conditions to finish. The southeastern, southwestern and east-central regions all have 99 per cent of the crop combined, while the west-central region has 98 per cent. The northeastern region has 96 per cent of the crop in the bin and the northwestern region has 95 per cent. Ninety-nine per cent of the canaryseed, 98 per cent of the durum, spring wheat, oats and barley, 95 per cent of the canola, 91 per cent of the soybeans and 87 per cent of the flax have been combined.

The majority of the province received no moisture this past week, although areas in the northwest received small amounts of rain and snow, with the Meadow Lake reporting 11 mm. Topsoil moisture conditions have remained relatively unchanged over the last few weeks, and significant moisture will be needed to replenish both the topsoil and subsoil before next spring. Across the province, topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 43 per cent adequate, 40 per cent short and 17 per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 33 per cent adequate, 45 per cent short and 22 per cent very short.

One year ago Frequent snow and rain continued to halt harvest progress for most of

the province. Harvest progress remained at 81 per cent combined. It would be some time before most producers could return to the field; some would not resume combining

until the ground froze.

Please note: Next Thursday, October 26, 2017 will be the last Crop Report for the 2017 growing season.

The majority of crop damage this past week was due to strong winds and wildlife such as geese and deer. Hard frosts last week have helped dry crops such as flax. Producers are busy completing combining and fall work, moving cattle and hauling grain and bales. SaskPower received six reports last week of farm machinery coming in contact with electrical equipment, bringing the total for October to 13. Producers are urged to be especially careful when using equipment around power lines. Safety information is available at www.saskpower.com/safety.

Southeastern Saskatchewan:

Crop District 1 – Carnduff, Estevan, Redvers, Moosomin and Kipling areas Crop District 2 – Weyburn, Milestone, Moose Jaw, Regina and Qu’Appelle areas Crop District 3ASE – Radville and Lake Alma areas

Producers in the region have harvest all but wrapped up, as 99 per cent of the crop is now combined. This is up from 97 per cent last week and ahead of the five-year (2012-2016) average of 95 per cent for this time. There are, however, still a few fields of soybean and flax to come off. No rain was reported in the region this past week. The Tantallon area has reported the most precipitation (247 mm) in the region since April 1. Topsoil moisture conditions have worsened with the recent warm and dry conditions. Significant moisture will be needed to replenish both the topsoil and subsoil moisture in much of the region. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 38 per cent adequate, 40 per cent short and 22 per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 29 per cent adequate, 43 per cent short and 28 per cent very short. Most crop damage this past week was due to strong winds. A hard frost in the region last week will help crops such as flax dry down. Producers are busy finishing harvest, working fields, moving cattle and completing fall work such as putting down fertilizer and picking rocks.

Harvest is essentially complete in the region, as 99 per cent of the crop is in the bin. The five-year (2012-2016) average for this time of year is 96 per cent. Some producers are waiting on crops such as flax and soybean to dry down. No rain was reported in the region last week. The Moose Jaw area has reported the most precipitation (235 mm) in the region since April 1. Topsoil moisture conditions remain about the same as last week. Significant moisture will be needed to replenish both the topsoil and the subsoil moisture before next spring. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 26 per cent adequate, 48 per cent short and 26 per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 22 per cent adequate, 40 per cent short and 38 per cent very short. The majority of crop damage this past week was due to strong winds. A hard frost in the region last week will help crops such as flax dry down. Producers are busy finishing harvest, moving cattle, hauling grain and completing fall work such as picking rocks and working fields. East-Central Saskatchewan:

Crop District 5 – Melville, Yorkton, Cupar, Kamsack, Foam Lake, Preeceville and Kelvington areas

Crop District 6A – Lumsden, Craik, Watrous and Clavet areas Good progress was made this past week, and producers in the east-central region have all but completed harvest. Ninety-nine per cent of the crop is now combined, up from 92 per cent last and well ahead of the five-year (2012-2016) average of 92 per cent for this time of year. There are, however, a few fields of soybeans, oats and canola left to harvest. No rain was reported in the region last week. The Kelvington area has reported the most precipitation (361 mm) in the region since April 1. Topsoil moisture conditions have slightly worsened since last week, and much of the region remains in need of significant moisture to replenish both the topsoil and subsoil moisture before next year. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 51 per cent adequate, 40 per cent short and nine per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 36 per cent adequate, 53 per cent short and 11 per cent very short. The majority of crop damage this past week was due to strong winds, hard frost and wildlife such as deer and geese. Producers are busy wrapping up combining, hauling grain, moving cattle and completing fall work such as picking rocks and fixing fences.

West-Central Saskatchewan:

Crop District 6B – Hanley, Outlook, Loreburn, Saskatoon and Arelee areas Crop District 7A – Rosetown, Kindersley, Eston, Major areas Crop District 7B – Kerrobert, Macklin, Wilkie and Biggar areas

Producers in the region now have 98 per cent of the crop in the bin, up from 97 per cent last week and well ahead of the five-year (2012-2016) average of 93 per cent for this time of year. There are still some cereal, soybean and canola fields left to harvest. While the majority of the region received no rain last week, the Kerrobert area reported 1 mm. The Tramping Lake area has reported receiving the most precipitation (298 mm) in the region since April 1. Topsoil moisture remains relatively unchanged since last week. Significant amounts of moisture will be needed to replenish both the topsoil and subsoil moisture before next spring. Topsoil moisture on cropland is rated as 26 per cent adequate, 54 per cent short and 20 per cent very short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture is rated as 20 per cent adequate, 60 per cent short and 20 per cent very short. Most crop damage this past week was due to strong winds and wildlife such as deer. A heavy frost in much of the region should help the remaining unharvested soybean and flax crops to dry down. Producers are busy finishing harvest, hauling grain and bales, moving cattle and completing fall work such as picking rocks, working fields and putting down fertilizer. Northeastern Saskatchewan:

Crop District 8 – Hudson Bay, Tisdale, Melfort, Carrot River, Humboldt, Kinistino, Cudworth and Aberdeen areas

Crop District 9AE – Prince Albert, Choiceland and Paddockwood areas Great progress was made again this week and 96 per cent of the crop is now combined, up from 92 per cent last week and just ahead of the five-year (2012-2016) average of 95 per cent for this time of year.
