Manitoba cost-of-production data for 2020 ranks corn as the most profitable large-acre crop but also the highest insurance risk, with oats seen as the safest option. Both crops are described as likely profitable on the eastern Prairies.
Profitability comparisons may shift spring acreage between oats and corn, but the effect on prices is modest.
