Most Areas Of Manitoba Need More Rain

 
Manitoba Agriculture says that seeding is 99 per cent complete, however there is a small amount of planting that needs to be done in the western part of the province.
 
The weekly crop report notes that precipitation was limited in most parts of Manitoba over the past seven days, with the exception being western Manitoba. Most areas could use additional precipitation.
 
The report says crops have benefited from the warm temperatures, and good progress has been made on weed control operations.

Seeding Winter Wheat near Oshkosh Nebraska

I am in the fie3ld with a farmer near Oshkosh Nebraska as he his no-till drilling winter wheat into a harvested corn field. In the video the farm is running their John Deere 9470RX tractor pulling a 42 foot wide Deere 1890C air drill with a 1910 commodity cart.

Winter wheat will emerge this fall and go dormant over the winter. In the spring it will stat growing again and be ready to harvest in mid July.
