Dr. John Pomeroy, a director with the University of Saskatchewan’s Global Water Futures, says farmers should be able to get by based on the water level currently held in the reservoir.

“This year there was pretty good winter precipitation over a lot of central and west-central Saskatchewan, so the irrigation needs would be lower this year,” said Pomeroy.

“So I think even this year, it’s speculating a bit, but even with a full buildout of that irrigation, we probably wouldn’t have too much trouble this year.”
