Harvest of this year's crop in the Northwest region was slowed last week due to precipitation and cooler temperatures.
According to the weekly Manitoba Agriculture crop report, 35 per cent of this year's crop within the region is now in the bin, ahead of only the southwest's 33 per cent as far as regional progress goes within the province.
Fall rye and winter wheat harvests have wrapped up in the region, while field peas are at 95 per cent, and spring wheat is around 75 per cent complete.
Average yields are in the 50-60 bushels/acre range for spring wheat, and 30-60 bushels per acre for field peas.
Canola harvest is lagging behind at only two per cent complete, as stages vary from flowering to maturity.
Soybean crops are moving closer to the R7 stage, but range in condition.
