After weeks of moisture, drought conditions ease in parts of Prairies

Steve Donald has one word to sum up the current condition of his southeast Saskatchewan farmyard: "Muck."

But he's optimistic the extra moisture will provide adequate feed and water for his cattle, and better growing conditions.
