Great crops forecasted - at least twice
Today's crop assessment map demonstrates a crop developing at higher than normal rates and the complete opposite of last year's lower than normal rates (see below). This confirms the need for a warning by APAS last week when, "The potential for this year's crop to be a record setting event has been confirmed by the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan (APAS). In a recent press release, APAS issued notice to rail companies to be prepared for what could be a large crop this year. You can see their actual press release here."
