SOUTH
Harvest progress was slowed by heavy rain in amounts up to 90 mm. On the other hand, there are excellent soil moisture conditions for seeding winter wheat.
Slightly more than 10 percent of crops have been swathed and less than 10 percent combined.
About one-quarter of canola and winter wheat are swathed. Almost 40 percent of field peas and about 20 percent winter wheat are combined.
Crop conditions improved with three-quarters now rated good to excellent.
There will probably be no second cutting of hay, but more than 60 percent of second cut irrigated hay is completed with good yields and excellent quality.
