Extent of Cold Temperatures in Ontario

Two significant cold temperature events have occurred in Ontario this month. The maps below highlight the extent and distribution of these two frost events.

While significant injury is visible across a wide swath of the province from this past weekends frost, scouting has shown that despite the injury seen on the crop, corn for the most part should be okay since the growing point of most fields remain below the ground. A few more soybean fields experienced damage necessitating replanting.

Much thanks to the folks at Weather INnovations (WIN) for supplying these maps of the cold temperature extent and distribution.

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
