Many fields were ravaged by hail, rain and strong winds during Thursday night's storm.
Anne Kirk of Manitoba Agriculture says some of the areas affected include Darlingford, Ninette, Winkler, Manitou and Wawanesa in addition to many others.
She notes that while the damage might look bad, there may still be a chance for recovery.
"At this stage, we typically don't see a lot of damage. We do see that the crops look pretty bad...In spring cereals hail damage prior to stem elongation, we don't really see a lot of damage because the growing point is still below the soil surface...Generally the more advanced the crop is at the time of hail, the greater the yield loss."
