Cereals Coming Off Tough In Some Areas

Harvest in Manitoba is nearly a third complete.
 
Dane Froese with Manitoba Agriculture says there's been tough cereals reported in some areas.
 
"A lot of cereals have come off a little bit tough due to high humidity and high moisture...at the time of harvest, so producers have been searching for aeration and making sure their aeration bins are working in order to be able to use some natural air drying to bring tough grain down to that dry safe storage level. Less than 14.5 per cent for spring wheat, less than 13.5 per cent for oats. Occasionally having to put it through a grain dryer just to make sure that high moisture or excessively tough grain is able to be dried down and stored for long term."
 
He notes spring wheat yields are generally below average, reaching the top two grades.
 
Oat and barley yields are better, and quality is good.
