The southeast is furthest along at 99 per cent with the southwest, east-central, and northeast trailing slightly at 98 per cent. The northwest is 97 per cent complete and the west-central is at 93 per cent. There are still some flax, canary seed and oat crops left to be combined.
Across Saskatchewan, topsoil moisture conditions are rated as six per cent surplus, 88 percent adequate and six per cent short. Hay land and pasture topsoil moisture conditions are rated as two per cent surplus, 85 per cent adequate, 12 per cent short and one per cent very short.
This is the second-last crop report of the season. The final one will be released on Oct. 29.
