Most of the province received rain this week, improving moisture conditions, especially in the southern and west-central regions that received higher amounts. Some of the northern parts of the province have reported localized flooding and standing water in fields. The majority of crops in the province are in fair to excellent condition. Provincially, 67 per cent of the fall cereals, 72 per cent of the spring cereals, 65 per cent of the oilseed crops and 81 per cent of the pulse crops are at normal stages of development for this time of year. Rainfall in the province ranged from trace amounts to 75 mm in the Macklin area. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as three per cent surplus, 77 per cent adequate, 19 per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as one per cent surplus, 67 per cent adequate, 27 per cent short and five per cent very short. Haying is just starting in the province. Livestock producers now have one per cent of the hay crop cut and one per cent baled or put into silage. Hay quality is rated as eight per cent excellent, 59 per cent good, 24 per cent fair and nine per cent poor. Farmers hope that the recent rain will improve crop and future pasture growth, especially in the areas that received little rain prior to this week.

The majority of crop damage this week was from flooding mostly in the northern regions, dry conditions mostly in the southern and east-central regions, wind, insect and animal feeding, and disease. Farmers are busy finishing up in-crop herbicide applications, hauling grain, scouting for insect and disease pests, applying fertilizer, fixing equipment and beginning haying in some areas.

One year ago Crops are behind to normal in their stages of development for this time

of year, with most of the crops being rated poor to good in

condition. Haying is just starting in the province, with one per cent of the hay crop cut and one per cent

bales or put into silage. Recent rains have improved conditions, but

pastures are expected to have reduced carrying capacity.

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, Minton and Lake Alma areas

Welcome rain this week has greatly improved moisture conditions in the area. Producers that did not receive rain have reported reduced hay and pasture growth. Rain received this week will help improve conditions in the region, but more will be needed soon. Regionally, 71 per cent of the fall cereals, 70 per cent of the spring cereals, 72 per cent of the oilseed crops and 73 per cent of the pulse crops are at normal stages of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from fair to excellent in the region, with 65 per cent of the spring wheat, 57 per cent of the canola and 67 per cent of the lentils in good to excellent condition at this time. Canola growth is patchy due to dry conditions and flea beetles. Most of the region received much needed rainfall this week. The Kisbey area received the most rain in the region this week with 63 mm. The Marquis area received six mm, the Carnduff and Maryfield areas 17 mm, the Wilcox area 21 mm and the Tantallon and Creelman areas 28 mm. The Kisbey area has received the most precipitation in the region since April 1 (123 mm). Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as six per cent surplus, 61 per cent adequate, 31 per cent short and two per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as one per cent surplus, 58 per cent adequate, 32 per cent short and nine per cent very short. Haying has just begun in the region, with two per cent of the hay crop cut and one per cent baled or put into silage. Hay quality is rated as five per cent excellent, 38 per cent good, 33 per cent fair and 24 per cent poor. The dry conditions have resulted in short hay land and pasture as well as reduced carrying capacity and expected yield. The majority of crop damage this week was from dry conditions, wind, gophers and insects such as cutworms, flea beetles and grasshoppers. Farmers are busy finishing in-crop herbicide applications, starting haying, hauling grain and scouting for insects and diseases.

Southwestern Saskatchewan:

Crop District 3ASW – Coronach, Assiniboia and Ogema areas Crop District 3AN – Gravelbourg, Mossbank, Mortlach and Central Butte areas Crop District 3B – Kyle, Swift Current, Shaunavon and Ponteix areas Crop District 4 – Consul, Maple Creek and Leader areas

Areas that received rain and warm weather the past few weeks have reported that crops are looking better. The reduction in wind has allowed farmers to make progress spraying herbicides, and they have shifted their focus to scouting for disease and applying fungicides in some areas. In the southwest, 82 per cent of the fall cereals, 83 per cent of the spring cereals, 89 per cent of the oilseed crops and 89 per cent of the pulse crops are at a normal stage of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from fair to excellent in the region, with 87 per cent of the spring wheat, 84 per cent of the durum, 81 per cent of the canola and 91 per cent of the lentils being in good to excellent condition at this time. Most of the southwest region received rainfall this week. The Bengough area received the highest amount of rain in the region with 58 mm. The Admiral and Blumenhof areas received nine mm, the Mortlach area 12 mm, the Consul area 22.4 mm, the Kyle area 25 mm, the Mossbank area 26 mm and the Leader area 40 mm. The Gouldtown area has received the most precipitation in the region since April 1 (209.3 mm). Moisture conditions have improved in the southwest region due to rainfall and limited amount of wind. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as one per cent surplus, 81 per cent adequate, 17 per cent short and one per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as 65 per cent adequate, 27 per cent short and eight per cent very short. Haying recently began in the region. Two per cent of the hay crop has now been cut and one per cent has been baled or put into silage. Hay quality is rated as six per cent excellent, 63 per cent good, 25 per cent fair and six per cent poor. Farmers have reported that limited rain at the start of the season has led to shorter hay crops and pasture, and they are noticing reduced yields in some areas. The majority of crop damage this week was from gophers, dry conditions in some areas, flea beetles, and diseases such as anthracnose, ascochyta blight and root rots. Farmers are busy starting to hay, scouting for disease and wrapping up herbicide applications.

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 Most of the east-central region requires more rain and warmer temperatures to improve crop development. Areas that received rain have reported that crops are looking better, but more is needed. Cool temperatures throughout most of the growing season have slowed crop development in the region. Sixty-seven per cent of the fall cereals, 61 per cent of the spring cereals, 50 per cent of the oilseed crops and 74 per cent of the pulse crops are at a normal stage of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from fair to good in the region, with 50 per cent of the canola, 60 per cent of the spring wheat and 57 per cent of the lentils being in good to excellent condition at this time. There have been reports of cereals heading and flowering in canola and pulse crops. Rainfall in the east-central region ranged from zero to 58 mm in the Kuroki area. The Raymore and Bethune areas received two mm, the Craven area six mm, the Meacham area eight mm, the Elfros area 11 mm, the Yorkton area 16 mm and the Esterhazy area 19 mm. Moisture conditions were maintained in the region this week. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 62 per cent adequate and 38 per cent short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as 48 per cent adequate, 47 per cent short and five per cent very short. Haying has not started throughout most of the east-central region, but will soon. Hay quality is rated as 61 per cent good, 31 per cent fair and eight per cent poor. Much of the region remains dry, which has resulted in delayed and reduced hay and pasture growth. The majority of crop damage this week was from dry conditions, wind and gophers, as well as some damage from insects such as flea beetles, cutworms and aphids. There were also reports of isolated damage caused by flooding, hail and frost. Farmers are busy hauling grain, getting ready to start haying and wrapping up in-crop herbicide applications.

West-Central Saskatchewan:

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

Rain and warm temperatures the past few weeks have supported crop, hay and pasture land development. Farmers have reported more disease levels and have been planning for fungicide applications in the region. Regionally, 61 per cent of the fall cereals, 77 per cent of the spring cereals, 81 per cent of the oilseed crops and 79 per cent of the pulse crops are at a normal stage of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from good to excellent in the region, with 94 per cent of the durum, 83 per cent of the canola and 91 per cent of the lentils in good to excellent condition at this time. The west-central region continued to receive rainfall this week. The Macklin area received the highest amount of rain in the province this week with 75 mm. The Hanley area received six mm, the Phippen area 16 mm, the Harris area 19 mm, the Eyebrow and Sonningdale areas 20 mm, the Netherhill area 23 mm and the Kerrobert area 35 mm. The Rosthern area has received the most precipitation since April 1 (234 mm). Moisture conditions continue to improve in the region. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as one per cent surplus, 98 per cent adequate and one per cent short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as 88 per cent adequate and 12 per cent short. Haying is just beginning in the region. Two per cent of the hay crop has now been cut and one per cent has been baled or put into silage. Hay quality is rated as 21 per cent excellent, 72 per cent good and seven per cent fair. Limited moisture and cool temperatures earlier in the season have delayed the start of haying for some farmers, but the moisture in the recent weeks has helped improved conditions. The majority of crop damage this week was from diseases such as root rot, anthracnose and ascochyta blight, as well as localized flooding. Farmers are busy spraying herbicides, top dressing fertilizer, scouting for disease and making fungicide decisions, getting ready for haying and hauling grain.

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 Continued rain in the northeast region has resulted in standing water in fields. This has delayed crop development and caused damage to flooded areas. Several fields are too wet to spray, but many farmers have been finishing up applying in crop herbicides. Farmers need warm and dry temperatures to support crop, hay land and pasture development. Regionally, 71 per cent of the fall cereals, 60 per cent of the spring cereals, 46 per cent of the oilseed crops and 68 per cent of the pulse crops are at a normal stage of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from fair to excellent in the region, with 87 per cent of the spring wheat, 84 per cent of the canola and 88 per cent of the peas in good to excellent condition at this time. Rain in the region ranged from trace to 36 mm in the Porcupine Plain area. The Bruno area received eight mm, the Arborfield area 12 mm, the Star City area 14 mm, the Spruce Home area 15 mm, the Garrick area 19 mm and the Birch Hills area 20 mm. The Spruce Home area has received the most precipitation in the region since April 1 (215 mm). Moisture conditions have slightly declined in the area, with more land, particularly crop land, being rated as surplus for topsoil moisture. Crop land topsoil moisture is rated as 14 per cent surplus and 86 per cent adequate. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as four per cent surplus, 95 per cent adequate and one per cent short. Haying has not begun in all areas of the northeast region. Hay quality is rated as 17 per cent excellent and 83 per cent good. Continued rainfall and lack of heat has slowed hay development in the region and prevented farmers from being able to get into wet fields. The majority of crop damage this week was from flooding and standing water, as well as some reports of flea beetles. Farmers are busy finishing up herbicide spraying and scouting for disease.

Northwestern Saskatchewan:

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

Lloydminster areas Warm, dry conditions in many parts of the region have improved crop development, but more northwest areas of the region have reported that cool and wet weather is slowing plant growth. Warm temperatures throughout the region are needed to support crop, hay and pasture development. Seventy-seven per cent of the spring cereals, 72 per cent of the oilseed crops and 80 per cent of the pulse crops are at a normal stages of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from fair to good in the region, with 83 per cent of the spring wheat, 78 per cent of the canola and 81 per cent of the peas in good condition at this time. Rain in the northwest region ranged from zero to 27.5 mm in areas around Neilburg. The Mayfair area received seven mm, the Frenchman Butte area nine mm, the Meadow Lake area 12 mm, the Barthel area 14 mm and the Duck Lake area 26 mm. The Hafford area has received the most precipitation in the province since April 1 (261 mm). Moisture conditions were maintained this week, but there has been more land rated as short for topsoil moisture due to certain areas receiving limited rainfall the past few weeks. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as six per cent surplus, 89 per cent adequate and five per cent short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as four per cent surplus, 87 per cent adequate and nine per cent short. Haying has not started, but will be underway soon in the region. Some fields remain too wet to start haying. Cool temperatures have slowed hay development. Hay quality is rated as 63 per cent good and 37 per cent fair. The majority of crop damage this week was from cutworms, gophers, dry conditions, isolated flooding and standing water. Farmers are busy finishing in-crop herbicide applications and scouting for diseases and other forms of crop damage.
