The Wiebe family has been growing potatoes near McGregor, Man. in the southern area of Manitoba since 1966. The family produces Ranger Russet, Russet Burbank and Innovator varieties, largely for the Carnation Foods plant in Portage La Prairie, Man. Seven years ago, the family decided to relocate their operation. The new growing location had coarser soil. "We found that we were mnning out of nitrogen late in the season," explains Sheldon Wiebe. "That was affecting our yield and quality due to leaching. We had to do some late season rescue work."
