Thanks to a late winter snowstorm, the equivalent of 25 to 40 mm of precipitation fell on eastern Saskatchewan in early March.
The moisture was a welcome relief for farmers in the region, who had rock hard soil last fall and were worried about seeding into parched fields this spring.
Unfortunately, the 25 to 50 centimetres of snow that fell on eastern Saskatchewan and southern Manitoba won’t fix the severely dry subsoils in certain parts of the Prairies.
