Manitoba Agriculture and Resource Development is advising that a provincial variance is in effect and nutrients can be applied as of March 23, 2021.
Farmers are obliged to assess current weather conditions and periodically check weather forecasts when applying nutrients prior to April 11th.
Nutrients should not be applied in instances where the weather outlook is unfavourable such as if snow or an appreciable amount of rainfall is expected that would result in runoff.
All other requirements of the nutrient management regulation and the Livestock Manure and Mortalities Management Regulation remain in effect.
