Crop Outlook Mixed as Flooding Affects Manitoba Fields
Early spring flooding and heavy June rains are reshaping the Manitoba crop picture. The Manitoba Department of Agriculture reports overall promise but notes serious losses from excess moisture, soil erosion in central areas, and southern fields already headed, with late plantings ground level. Germination is uneven and wet soils slow summer fallow with persistent weed and grasshopper pressures hindering chemical control.
