Canada: Saskatchewan produced record crop in 2025

Saskatchewan produced a record 41.9 million tonnes of grains and oilseeds in 2025, up 13.7 per cent from the previous year, the agriculture ministry said Dec. 19.

The record is also 24.1 per cent above the five-year average.

Agriculture minister David Marit said resilient and innovative producers were able to overcome challenges such as drought to grow this amount. Records were set for canola production, at 12.2 million tonnes, and lentils at 2.9 million tonnes.

By volume for other crops, the province’s producers grew 12.7 million tonnes of spring wheat, 5.4 million tonnes of durum, 3.5 million tonnes of barley, and 1.8 million tonnes each of dry peas and oats.

The ministry said Saskatchewan saw significant production growth in lentils, up 37 per cent, canola 16.7 per cent, barley 16 per cent, durum 8.5 percent and spring wheat 5.3 per cent.

The estimates provided by Statistics Canada are based on a post-harvest survey of 7,198 farmers from Oct. 3 to Nov. 6.

The province has a target of 45 million tonnes by 2030.

The trade and export development ministry also reported export value statistics of products going to more than 160 countries.

Exports to Japan grew to nearly $900 million, or a 50 per cent increase, primarily in canola seed and wheat. Exports to Peru, mainly wheat, lentils and canola oil, rose 44 per cent to $344 million.

One of the top destinations for Saskatchewan products was Brazil, which purchased $1.3 billion worth of mostly potash.
