Harvest Progress Mixed In Manitoba Area Fields
Hamiota area reports harvest advancing slowly with 25 to 30 percent of crops gathered by Sept. 28. Yields vary from 12 to 45 bushels per acre with grades high for canola and barley, and oats largely grading 2 or 3. Tombstone presence in wheat is not a major concern, per John Patterson.
