The winter cereal harvest is nearing completion

Farmers continue to roll right through the harvest despite minor rain delays.

The winter cereal harvest is nearing completion in the province with 93 per cent of the winter wheat and fall rye now in the bin.

Provincial pulse specialist Dennis Lange puts together Manitoba's Weekly Crop Report.

"Ranging from 23 per cent complete in spring wheat to 21 per cent complete in oats, and barley is around 26 per cent complete. So rolling in there kind of nicely, just kind of getting going. "
