Last week's massive rain event has further delayed crop development across the Northwest region.
According to the latest Manitoba Agriculture Crop Report, the system overwhelmed ditches, drains and rivers very quickly, causing significant overland flooding and damage to infrastructure.
Many fields are still affected by overland flooding, making them difficult to access, as damage continues to be assessed.
The rain also forced some farmers to miss the application window for herbicides.
Fall rye and winter wheat are headed out and continue towards flowering stage, while spring cereals range from tillering to flag leaf stage.
Canola field range from 4-leaf stage to earliest seeded fields now being in the early flowering stage, with some fields suffering from excess moisture starting to stress bolt.
Field peas continue in the vegetative stage with most advanced are now into the R1 stage, while Soybean fields range from the second to fourth trifoliate stage.
