Seeding in the Peace Region is nearly complete, with over 90% of crops planted, significantly ahead of the 5- and 10-year averages.

Warm, dry weather has facilitated this rapid progress.

However, soil moisture levels are currently suboptimal, with sub-surface moisture rated at 16% poor, 48% fair, and 36% good.

Recent rainfall is expected to improve these conditions.
