Weeds threaten Manitoba fertility says Winnipeg Tribune
The Winnipeg Tribune warns that lax weed control is the worst possible advertisement for Manitoba agriculture. It notes ripening weeds along roads and fields, a risk to future crops, and calls for strict enforcement to prevent spread.

Harvesting General in Manitoba
The Manitoba Department of Agriculture notes harvesting across the province is general with crops at Brandon, Glenboro, Morden, Pipestone, Souris, Treherne and more. Rust, shriveled Durum and oats appear in western fields, while barley yields are strong and overall yields vary by region. Moist soil supports good pasture and hay, with next winter feed prospects looking favorable.
