Harvest 2009 Wet Crops Show Decent Yields For Area
Lorne Frieze of Viterra notes 15 20 percent of crops remain in Russell and north as early Thanksgiving snow halts harvest. Despite a rough start yields are average to above average with canola and wheat at 45 50 bushels per acre and flax around 30. Moisture levels push drying costs, sample moisture ranges from 15 for canola and 21 23 for wheat, but quality remains decent and off the land is the priority.
