Last year in Saskatchewan, soybean production soared, as producers planted a record amount of acres.
In terms of seeded area, Saskatchewan producers planted 240,000 acres of soybeans in 2016.
It jumped to 850,000 acres in 2017. This year, farmers planted 407,500 acres of soybeans in the province.
This acreage decline is attributed to attractive wheat prices, dry conditions and burdensome world soybean supplies.
