Seeding Advances Despite Cool Weather
WINNIPEG - May 21/02 - STAT -- Seeding is making good progress in Manitoba despite cool temperatures and frosty nights, according to the latest crop progress report from the provincial agriculture department.
In the southwest region, seeding has been steady, with the result 70% of the cereal crops and almost 60% of the oilseeds have been seeded, with the planting of beans to start this week. The Killarney district is most advanced in terms of seeding progress, with about 90% of the area's crop acres already in the ground.
Crop emergence has been slower than usual this year due to the cool, dry conditions.
Northwestern crop districts experienced generally cool and dry weather last week. Soil moisture conditions are poor to fair. Early-seeded crops are very slow to emerge due to the unseasonably cold soils.
