The hot dry windy weather is taking its toll on the crops in the region, causing the crops to be stunted, especially in fields with lighter soils.

The region did receive some rain during the June 22 to 28 period, but it was very localized and not enough was received to provide relief to crops and pastures.

Regionally, 63 per cent of the fall cereals, 79 per cent of the spring cereals, 63 per cent of the oilseed crops and 84 per cent of the pulse crops are at their normal stages of development for this time of year.

Crop conditions range from fair to good in the region, with 67 per cent of the spring wheat, 22 per of the canola and 54 per cent of the peas being in good condition at this time.

Rain in the region ranged from trace to 28 mm in the Vonda area and 20 mm in the Star City area.

Moisture conditions have slightly declined in the region. Crop land topsoil moisture is rated as zero per cent surplus, 64 per cent adequate 29 per cent short and seven per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as zero per cent surplus, 47 per cent adequate, 31 per cent short and 22 per cent very short.

Haying has begun in all areas of the northeast region with seven per cent of the hay now cut. Hay quality is rated as zero per cent excellent, 75 per cent good and 25 per cent fair. Continued lack of rainfall and constant heat has slowed hay development in the region and has made some producers hesitate about cutting.

The majority of crop damage this week was from heat, wind, dry conditions and gophers.

Even though the region has received some localized rain showers the crops are slow to develop because of the high day time temperatures and overall lack of moisture.

The east-central region requires more rain and mid to low 20 degree temperatures to improve crop development. Areas that received rain have reported that crops are looking better, but more is needed.

Sixty-one per cent of the fall cereals, 64 per cent of the spring cereals, 62 per cent of the oilseed crops and 82 per cent of the pulse crops are at their normal stages of development for this time of year. Crop conditions range from fair to good in the region, with 37 per cent of the canola, 55 per of the spring wheat and 84 per cent of the lentils being in good condition at this time. There have been reports of cereals heading and flowering in canola and pulse crops.

Rainfall in the region ranged from nil to 15 mm in the Kuroki area; the Elfros area 13 mm, the Semans area eight and the Raymore and Lipton areas received three mm.

Moisture conditions have dropped in the region. Cropland topsoil moisture is rated as 21 per cent adequate, 69 per cent short and ten per cent very short. Hay and pasture land topsoil moisture is rated as 16 per cent adequate, 70 per cent short and 14 per cent very short.

Haying has started throughout most of the east-central region, but progress has been very slow with only two per cent cut and one per cent baled. Hay quality is rated as 44 per cent good, 56 per cent fair. Much of the region is very dry, which has resulted in delayed and reduced hay and pasture growth.

The majority of crop damage this week was from dry conditions, wind and gophers, as well as some damage from insects such as flea beetles, cutworms.

Producers are busy getting ready to start haying, wrapping up in herbicide applications and scouting for crop damage.
