Northeast has slow harvesting week
Harvesting continues around the province with much of the province either finished or very close to being completed.
Eighty-nine per cent of the provincial crop has been combined with eight per cent swathed or ready to be straight cut which is a little ahead of the five-year average of 85 per cent combined and 11 per cent swathed.
The northeastern region had a bit of a slower week due to the rain last week, but according to Daphne Cruise, a regional crop specialist with Saskatchewan Agriculture, by this past weekend most producers were able to get back into the field.
Eighty-five per cent of the crop in the northeast is now combined, which Cruise said is about on track with the five-year average.
