Harvest finished for season in North West region

Producers in the North West region, including the Battlefords and Meadow Lake area, have wrapped up their harvest for this fall.

Linda Bomok, who farms with her sons in the Richard, Saskatchewan, area, said she had a good season this year, after finishing harvest towards the end of September.

The family grows about 255 acres of soft spring wheat. They saw good yields of 50 bushels per acre for this year’s harvest.

Like many other producers, Bomok is finding the soil conditions on the dry side now. She would like to see a little precipitation on the way to help.

Video: OFA statement on Canada-U.S. trade escalation and Canadian counter-tariffs



Following the implementation of Canadian counter-tariffs on approximately $27.6 billion in U.S. imports earlier this week, the immediate retaliatory measures announced by the United States, including threatened import bans on Canadian dairy and alcoholic beverage products, underscore the dangerous trajectory of this dispute. Tariff escalation is not a long-term solution.

As consumers on both sides of the border struggle with food affordability, trade disruptions and retaliatory measures only exacerbate these challenges. Ontario farmers continue to urge both federal governments to return to the negotiating table and secure a fair, durable trade agreement that protects producers and processors across North America.
