The Grain Elevators in Canada - 2021 dataset maps the list of grain elevators in Canada as provided by the Canadian Grain Commission (CGC). The elevators have been located as much as possible to an actual location rather than generalizing to the station name centroid. Additionally car spot information from CN, CP and the grain companies has been added where this has been published. This dataset attempts to provide a temporal and geographical extent of the grain elevators in Canada.

The Census of Agriculture is disseminated by Statistics Canada's standard geographic units (boundaries). Since these census units do not reflect or correspond with biophysical landscape units (such as ecological regions, soil landscapes or drainage areas), Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in collaboration with Statistics Canada's Agriculture Division, have developed a process for interpolating (reallocating or proportioning) Census of Agriculture information from census polygon-based units to biophysical polygon-based units. In the “Interpolated census of agriculture”, suppression confidentiality procedures were applied by Statistics Canada to the custom tabulations to prevent the possibility of associating statistical data with any specific identifiable agricultural operation or individual. Confidentiality flags are denoted where "-1" appears in data cell. This indicates information has been suppressed by Statistics Canada to protect confidentiality. Null values/cells simply indicate no data is reported.

The data represents the relative amount of manure production in the agricultural area of Alberta. It is an estimate of the degree to which livestock production may contribute to nutrient loading, pathogens and odour. The classes shown on the map are ranked between 0 (lowest) and 1 (highest). This resource was created in 2002 using ArcGIS.

The Canada Land Inventory (CLI), 1 100,000, Land Capability and Limitation for Agriculture dataset illustrates the varying potential of a specific area for agricultural production. Classes of land capability for agriculture are based on mineral soils grouped according to their potential and limitations for agricultural use. The classes indicate the degree of limitation imposed by the soil in its use for mechanized agriculture. The subclasses indicate the kinds of limitations that individually or in combination with others, are affecting agricultural land use. Characteristics of the soil as determined by soil surveys.

The Grain Elevators in Canada – 2017 dataset maps the list of grain elevators in Canada as provided by the Canadian Grain Commission (CGC). The elevators have been located as much as possible to an actual location rather than generalizing to the station name centroid. Additionally car spot information from CN, CP and the grain companies has been added where this has been published. This dataset attempts to provide a temporal and geographical extent of the grain elevators in Canada.

The “Canadian Agricultural Crop Water Balance – Watershed Aggregates” provides watershed-scale summaries of agricultural crop water balance variables for Canada derived from DNDC crop simulations linked to Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) polygons. The monthly outputs have been aggregated and released as annual and growing season summaries to support national water accounting and watershed-scale analysis. Crop water variables, originally expressed as depth (millimetres), are converted to volumes using simulated crop area and spatially aggregated to drainage regions through polygon–watershed intersection and area apportionment. Aggregated volumes are then converted back to area-weighted depths to ensure water quantities are preserved during spatial aggregation. Released datasets include annual and growing season estimates of evapotranspiration, precipitation, irrigation application, leaching, and irrigated-field runoff associated with agricultural crop production. Supporting tables provide total and irrigated crop area contributing to each watershed estimate. Spatial processing is performed using the Statistics Canada Albers Equal Area projection (EPSG:3347), with raster products aligned to the Statistical Ecosystem Register 250m grid.

Web app showing locations of Manitoba Agri-Food businesses that offer food ingredients and/or products. This application shows the geographical locations of Manitoba Agri-Food businesses that offer food ingredients and/or products. This list is not inclusive nor an endorsement for services. For more information, visit Manitoba Agriculture. Contact Manitoba Agriculture at mbagrifood@gov.mb.ca to have your business added to the listing. This app uses the Food Ingredient & Product Data feature layer and the Food Ingredient & Product Map.

The 2006 Derived Interpolated Census of Agriculture by Soil Landscapes of Canada takes a subset of attributes from the 2006 Agricultural Census and creates new derived attributes that show the proportionate contribution of a variable to the total.
