Farmers in the Southwest are making good progress with the harvest.

 

Sask Ag and Food's crop analyst, Terry Bedard, says so far about 23% of the crop is in the bin with another 21% lying in the swath.

 

Bedard says unfortunately though, the hot, dry conditions have resulted in a drop in the potential yeild .

 

Provincially about 8% of the crop has been combined.
