Depending on where you farm, you’re either rejoicing in a return to moisture (but where is the warmth?) or cursing the clouds that continue to roll in, day after day.
Canada is a big place, and it’s never a good idea to make generalizations; however, generally speaking the Prairies are in a much better moisture situation this year over last and Ontario is too darn wet — so wet some areas have close to zero crop planted.
That said, in many areas the return of spring moisture isn’t enough to fully recharge soil reserves, and many farmers and ranchers aren’t ready to call the drought over, and for good reason.
In Ontario, too, plenty of farmers have all the crop in and plenty of acres look good, if a little weedy.
So we want to know, on a five point scale of too wet to too dry, how’s the moisture situation where you are?
