Harvest time comes…

Corn in BC

As of early September, the corn crop in British Columbia is likely in the later stages of its development, with the harvest season either beginning or imminent, depending on the specific location within the province.
While nationwide reports from Statistics Canada indicate that Canadian producers intended to plant more corn acres in 2025, and that overall production for Canada is projected to increase, there are no specific, recent reports available that detail the current condition of the corn crop specifically within British Columbia.
However, general information from the British Columbia government provides guidance on corn production in the province, and other Canadian agricultural reports point to a general trend of increased corn planting for 2025. It is important to note that growing conditions can vary significantly by region, so the state of the crop could differ between, for example, the Fraser Valley and the Interior of BC.
