Sask. Farmers Thankful for Recent Rain Across the Province

Scattered showers this past week brought more moisture to many parts of Saskatchewan.

Saskatchewan Agriculture Crop Specialist Cory Jacob says although this additional rainfall has alleviated concerns of dry conditions in some areas, more will be needed to help crops develop.

Jacob says the majority of crops in the province are in poor to good condition, but crop conditions have improved with the recent moisture.

Haying operations are just getting underway in much of the province.  Producers have indicated that hay yields are significantly lower than average due to the lack of moisture this spring.
