Welcome Rainfall In Southern Saskatchewan Helps Some Later-Seeded Crops

 
Parched areas of Regina received some welcome rainfall on Sunday night and the rain will benefit some crops — however, it was very local in nature.
 
The rain will replenish some late-seeded crops but the moisture skipped the farm of Todd Lewis, about 50 kilometers southeast of Regina.
 
He says some fields could still use more rain to improve yields.
 
“Certainly for all the crops,” Lewis said. “But I don’t think we’ll see a lot of improvement if we do get a rain. Maybe if we did get some general rain, it would help some later-seeded crops.”

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.
