Saskatchewan harvest is 99% done, with canola yields at 38.3 bushels per acre

The Saskatchewan government said in its crop report for October 20 to October 26 that 99% of the province's harvest was finished. Yields were mostly in line with 10-year averages, the report said. Provincial estimates included 51.9 bushels per acre for hard red spring wheat, 44.2 for durum and 38.3 for canola. The report said late-season rain and pests caused some downgrading, and it put durum at 25% in the top grade, 1 CW, against a 10-year average of 39%.
