May 24 (Reuters) - Excellent field and weather conditions
allowed seeding operations to continue across Manitoba.
Provincially, seeding progress is estimated at 88 percent
complete.
Many areas of Manitoba received precipitation over the
weekend which was of benefit to crops, hay and pastures.
However, additional precipitation would still be welcomed to
assist with crop germination, emergence and growth.
Where soil moisture is adequate, crops are emerging rapidly.
Weed control will become a priority for producers as crops
and weeds advance.
