Traditionally in Manitoba agriculture, large-scale grain farming predominated. The drop in wheat prices, and the availability of new, specialized crops, adapted to the Manitoba climate, contributed to increased diversification in the 1980s and 1990s. Although cereal crops are still dominant, fields of canola, peas, lentils, flax and potatoes, to name just a few, now form part of the landscape of the province. Moreover, more producers are turning towards raising cattle and hogs.
