Harvest is 53 per cent complete, falling 20 per cent behind the five-year average

Harvest progress in Saskatchewan is behind both the five- and ten-year averages at 53 per cent compete, which is still a 12 per cent jump from last week. The five-year average is nearly three quarters complete at 73 per cent, while the 10-year average is 62 per cent. The Saskatchewan Agriculture weekly crop report attributes this season’s shortcoming to the impeding rainfall that many areas received between September 9th and 15th. In the race to finish combining, the southwest region is the furthest along with 66 per cent of crops harvested. The southeast region follows behind with 58 per cent of the crop in the bin. In the west-central and northwest regions 47 per cent of crops have been combined, and in the east-central region harvest is 46 per cent complete. Things are progressing more slowly in the northeast with 42 per cent in the bin. Although the rain slowed progress for many, it also improved soil moisture conditions.

CRSB Certified recognized as AgriInvest risk assessment tool

The Canadian Roundtable for Sustainable Beef (CRSB) has announced that its CRSB Certified program is now recognized as an agri-environmental risk assessment (AERA) under Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada’s AgriInvest program. This means that beef producers who are CRSB Certified and require an AERA to participate in AgriInvest can use their certification to meet that requirement for the government program. AgriInvest is one of the business risk management programs delivered under the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership (SCAP), the federal-provincial-territorial framework that supports Canada’s agriculture and agri-food sectors. CRSB Certification joins a list of eligible AERAs including an Environmental Farm Plan and Nutrient Management Plans. Risk assessment must be valid at some point during your fiscal year for which it is required.

The southwest region is the furthest along with 66 per cent of crops harvested. The southeast region currently has 58 per cent of the crop in the bin. Harvest is at the same stage in the west-central and northwest regions as 47 per cent of crops have been combined.
