The weather has been prime and combines working the prairie fields have become a familiar sight over the past several weeks. According to the weekly provincial crop report harvest in Saskatchewan is well ahead of schedule with at least seventy-four per cent of the 2012 crop already harvested and a further 20 per cent is swathed or ready to straight combine. The five-year (2007-2011) provincial average for this time of year is 55 per cent combined and 28 per cent swathed or ready to straight combine.
