> In spring of 2014, Ontario reported 58% overwinter losses, over three times the average of all other Canadian provinces.

Here in NYS, we experienced almost the same losses as our neighbor Ontario. Surrounding states did poorly as well. Much of this area is forested, mixed use ag, etc. Little soybeans & wheat, not a huge amount of corn. What all these states had in  common was a nasty winter.
