Farmers are catching up on some paperwork as they wait to get back in the field.
Harvest has been a real challenge for many producers across the Prairies with rain and now snow.
In Manitoba about 67 % of the crop is in the bin.
Manitoba’s Premier Brian Pallister has said there may be a need for the government to find ways to assist farmers this year.
Meantime, Agriculture Minister David Marit says that’s not something he’s considering at this point.
“You know I’m very confident in the programs we have in place, with crop insurance. I know there’s some challenges around AgStability, and you know we’re looking at proposals in changing that. I think with crop insurance and those type of things that we have in place. I’m comfortable there, that people have access to the opportunity, and I mean we've got to wait and see."
Marit says he's hopeful we could get a nice month of weather here yet.
“We could have a phenomenal nice October and November. It wasn’t long ago, it wasn’t many years ago – three or four years ago - where we finished in November and took it all off dry.”
