Police say they were called to the crash 6 km east of Arborg around 6:15 p.m.
Their investigation determined a pickup truck was heading eastbound at a high rate of speed when it collided into the rear of an eastbound farm tractor.
The 59-year-old man driving the tractor was ejected and pronounced dead on scene.
Police say their investigation will include looking into whether the lights on the tractor were working.
The 50-year-old driver of the pickup truck was not injured in the collision, but was subsequently arrested for impaired driving.
