The harvest window has closed again after rain followed by sub-zero temperatures and snow swept the Prairies Nov. 4-5.
However, most crops are now in the bin, thanks to a two-week window of warm, dry conditions opening up in October.
After multiple weeks of delay, many producers were able to return to their fields and complete harvest.
Depending on location, between 96 and 100 percent of this year’s crop has been harvested in all three prairie provinces, according to weekly crop reports and provincial crop specialists.
