Manitoba 2018 crop summary report

Weather conditions were dry and seedbed was very dry especially in
southern parts of the region. Dry conditions in most of the region
during July and August. Rainfall and below than normal temperatures in
September and early October cause the significant delay in harvest and
no major benefit to crops as most of the crops were already close to
harvest at that point. This late moisture put the overall percentage
close to normal in the region which will help to recharge the subsoil
moisture and helpful for next year crops.
