The Trans-Canada Highway near Waldeck has re-opened after firefighting effort.
Firefighters from the Herbert Fire Department and the RM of Swift Current Fire Department have managed to battle back the blaze.
There are only some smouldering patches left in the scorched remains of the field, and they are continuing their efforts to keep those from sparking to life again.
Plenty of the surrounding farmers and people in the area showed up with additional water supplies and helped to keep the fire from eating further into the surrounding harvest crops.
Fire trucks and water trucks on the scene.
RM of Herbert Fire Department Fire Chief, Brad Cornelson, was on the scene, helping fight the fire with his crew.
"Just want to thank the RM of Swift Current Fire department for attending this mutual aid call," thanked Cornelson. "And all the farm support hauling water today."
