  • Snowmelt Infiltration to Uncracked, Cracked and Subsoiled Frozen Soils
    SNOWMELT INFILTRATION TO UNCRACKED, CRACKED AND SUBSOILED FROZEN SOILS D.M. Gray1, R. J. Granger2 and W. ~icholaichuk~ ABSTRACT The effects of snowmelt infiltration characteristics of uncracked, cracked and subsoiled frozen soils on soil water augmentation by snow management practices are discussed. It is shown the potential for sig- nificantly increasing infiltration in uncracked or undisturbed soils by increasing snowcover accumulation is limited by their poor infiltration characteristics. The average amount of infiltration to a naturally-cracked clay can be of the order of 7.5 times the amount to the same soil in an uncracked condition, depending on the snow water equivalent. Ripping a soil to a depth of 600 mm increased infiltration by a factor of 7. The use of deep tillage practices of ripping and paraplowing for increasing the infiltration potential of frozen soils is reviewed. 'chairman and 2~esearchOfficer, Division of Hydrology, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, and 3~ead,Watershed Research Section, National Hydrology Research Institute, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. INTRODUCTION During the past five years the Division of Hydrology, University of Saskatchewan, has undertaken an extensive field measurement program in the Brown and Dark Brown soil zones of Saskatchewan on soil moisture changes occurring between freeze-up in the fall and the disappearance of the sea- sonal snowcover. To date approximately 200 sites have been monitored on soils ranging in texture from sandy loam to heavy clay under fallow, crop stubble and grass.

Use suitability maps as a guide, such as Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation maps and varietal information. Field Peas Field peas can be grown across Saskatchewan, but do not like excess moisture or salt-affected soils. Choose fields that drain well. Peas and lentils are more susceptible to Aphanomyces root rot compared to faba beans, chickpeas, and soybeans. Lentils Lentils are better adapted to the southern and west central part of the province in the Brown and Dark Brown soil zones. The introduction of new market classes and breeding for more determinate varieties (red and small green), has extended lentil production into the Thin Black and Black soil zones. In the moist Black and Grey soil zones, it is often too wet for consistent production of high quality lentils.

  • The Trans-Canada Highway in Saskatchewan
    THE TRANS-CANADA HIGHWAY IN SASKATCHEWAN Highway 1 or the Trans-Canada Highway is part of the National Highway System (NHS) and is one of the busiest transportation corridors in the province. It is a primary east-west trade artery, a major tourism route, and a key land link from coast to coast across Canada. Highway 1 is 655 km in length across Saskatchewan. Average daily traffic in Saskatchewan varies from a low of 4,700 vehicles per day between Maple Creek and Gull Lake, to a high of 22,800 immediately east of the City of Regina. History Construction on the two-lane Trans-Canada Highway in Saskatchewan began in 1950 and was completed in 1957. Saskatchewan was the first province to complete its section of the national highway, originally cost-shared with the federal government and built to agreed standards nation- wide. Four-lane construction on this highway began in 1960 with the first 21 km twinned section opened from Regina east to Balgonie by 1962. The last section of twinned highway around Moosomin was opened to traffic on November 6, 2008, 48 years later. Timeline - Highway 1 West of Regina: • 1967-70 – Regina to 2.8 km east of the Mortlach access; and from Swift Current to 1 km west of the Junction of Highway 32 • 1968 – west of the Junction with Highway 4 at Swift Current to 5.3 km east of Swift Current • 1971-72 – 3 km east of Herbert to 5.3 km east of Swift Current; and 2 km east of the Mortlach Access to 7 km east of Chaplin • 1975-76 – 7 km east of Chaplin to 3 km east of Herbert • 1983 – west of the Junction with Highway
