The recent dry weather has allowed local producers to make great headway with seeding operations.
According to the latest Manitoba Agriculture Crop Report, seeding is now almost complete, with 98 per cent of spring wheat in the ground, 99 per cent of field peas seeded, and 90 per cent of canola acres planted.
Soybeans are around 95 per cent seeded, while fall rye and winter wheat crops range from boot stage to early head emergence.
Some pest issues are also popping up, as field pea weevil has been spotted in the region, while flea beetles are increasing in canola crops.
Province-wide, 95 per cent of this year's crop has been seeded.
