- Inconsistent weather, tariffs loom over Manitoba’s harvest
After a few days’ break due to rain, Korey Peters is back harvesting his crops. “Two-thirds done wheat,” he told Global News Thursday, adding that amounts to roughly 25 per cent of the total harvest at Herbsigwil Farms in Randolph, Man. “You never really know until you start harvesting,” Peters said. “We thought our wheat was going to be maybe a little above average, and it just wasn’t. So once we started harvesting, we realized it wasn’t as good as we were hoping, sometimes there’s really not much you can do in the end. “It’s Mother Nature’s decision.” Mother Nature has been particularly inconsistent this year, according to Keystone Agricultural Producers Vice-President Jake Ayre. “Quite a mixed bag this season. We’ve had varying amounts of precipitation across the province,” he said. “Yields ranging from very good to excellent to poor. That’s, again, varying on moisture.” Earlier this year, the RM… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 day ago - Flooded fields after heavy rains slow start of harvest in south-central ManitobaOn the edge of a wheat field east of Poplar Point, Man., water had pooled more than 30 centimetres deep this week, swallowing rows of crops. Producer Carl Stewart says his 2,300-hectare (5,800-acre) wheat, canola and soybean farm has been hit with more rain in the past two weeks than the rest of the summer combined. Some storms brought almost 80 millimetres of water, flooding fields and making it tough to get equipment in for harvest. Stewart's farm is about 30 kilometres east of Portage la Prairie, an area that normally gets 73 millimetres of rain in August. After being hit with 100 millimetres of rain overnight on Aug. 20-21, it's now had 115 millimetres this month — 157 per cent of the normal monthly total. That will hit his bottom line this year, said Stewart. "We're going to have to leave some acres behind, and unfortunately those acres are… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 day ago

Decline in Transportation Job Postings A new report from Indeed Hiring Lab highlights a cooling U.S. transportation labor market in the second quarter of 2025. Job postings across key sectors fell year-over-year: Driving jobs declined 5.8% Loading and stocking jobs dropped 13.6% Logistics support jobs decreased 8.2% Senior economist Daniel Culbertson noted that demand for drivers remains flat in 2025, reflecting low competition among employers. He pointed to economic uncertainty, softer consumer spending, and unresolved trade policies as reasons companies are holding back on new hires and investments. These factors translate to fewer goods in motion and lower transportation activity. Wage Growth Slows Wage trends show mixed results across the transportation sector: Driving wages held steady at 1% growth year-over-year, unchanged since June 2024. Loading and stocking wages slowed to 1.8%, down sharply from 3.9% the year prior. Average wage growth in the U.S. overall… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 day ago - NATO warns Russia after Poland shoots down ‘huge number’ of drones that violated its air...
