The first crop report of 2025 from the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture has seeding progress at 18% complete. It’s ahead of the five year average of 10 per cent and the ten year average of 12 per cent. Despite storms around the province in April, producers have been able to get in the field and make progress over the last two weeks, especially over the last few days with the warmer weather. They’ve been either seeding, pre-seed spraying for weed control, harrowing and/or rock picking.
