Clean air, clean water, cool nights, and warm sunny days during the growing season give Manitoba carrots their high sugar content, intense colour, and great taste. Although harsh winters do not favour year round production, the freezing temperatures do serve as a natural environmental sterilant. This means Manitoba vegetables are unique in that they can be grown with less pesticide use and no soil fumigations. Manitoba is known for its high quality vegetables wherever they have been exported to. Lateral, or pivot irrigation systems provide clean water drawn directly from the Assiniboine River to supplement the natural summer rainfall.
