Corn across the province is moving towards maturity (black layer), as the milk line moves towards the kernel tip. Depending on the location within the province and date of planting will determine how advanced the crop is. Variation in maturity could be caused by many different factors like the maturity of the hybrid, planting date, and disease pressure. With some help of continued warm temperatures this month, the crop will reach maturity before the frost.
Cereals:
Spring cereal harvest is wrapping up in the province’s northern regions, as weather allows. Winter barley planting has begun, with winter wheat planting expected to be not far behind.
