Snow Could Put A Stop To The Harvest

The push is on as farmers work to get the majority of the harvest in the bin before the snow flies.
 
Agri-Meteorologist Drew Lerner with World Weather Inc says that could happen this weekend.
 
“We’ll see some significant frost and freezes occurring in most of the Province by the time we get to Saturday morning. Then the stage becomes set for a rain and snow event to impact most of the south, east central through southeastern parts of the province.”
 
Snow is expected to start Saturday night, continue most of the day Sunday ending early on Monday.”
 
“Some of that precipitation will be significant and the snow will be heavier enough in some areas to lay down our crop and make harvesting even more difficult down the road.”

Video: Secure Pork Supply Plan | Prepare to Protect Your Herd | U.S. Pork Producers

Join Jill Brokaw, a third-generation pig farmer, as she dives into the vital role of the Secure Pork Supply (SPS) Plan in preparing the U.S. pork industry for potential foreign animal disease outbreaks. This video is an essential watch for pork producers who are looking to safeguard their operations against the threats of diseases like foot and mouth disease, classical swine fever, and African swine fever. Why Should Pork Producers Care? An outbreak of foreign animal diseases in the U.S. could lead to severe restrictions and potentially result in industry-wide financial losses estimated between $15 to $100 billion. The SPS Plan is a collective effort to prevent such catastrophic outcomes by enhancing biosecurity, ensuring animal traceability, and promoting effective disease monitoring.
