    This data shows spatial density of Wheat cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which Wheat is more expected. Results are provided as rasters with numerical values for each pixel indicating the spatial density calculated for that location. Higher spatial density values represent higher likelihood to have Wheat based on analysis of the 2009 to 2021 AAFC annual crop inventory data. Wheat consists of all types of wheat including winter wheat from the AAFC annual crop inventory.

    The Grazing Rental Zones is comprised of two polygons which determine which zone a grazing disposition (GRL, FGL, GRP) is in. These zones are used to apply the rental rate that grazing leases (GRL), grazing licenses (FGL) and grazing permits (GRP) pay to the government of Alberta for use of public lands. The Public Lands Modernization (Grazing Lease and Obsolete Provisions) Amendment Act came into force January 1, 2020. Under the new rental rate framework (Ministerial Order 01/2020), there are now two grazing rental rate zones based on the transition of the boreal region of the province. The North Saskatchewan River is the dividing line between the south (Zone 1) and north (Zone 2).

    The Community Pasture Program was a land-management service provided in the Prairie provinces. The program ended on March 31, 2019. The geographic data series that was associated with the program included information about program geography and facilities, including representations of fences and the fields they enclose, pasture outlines and features such as corrals, dams and gates. The information provided in this series is for reference purposes only.

    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.

    In 2020, the Earth Observation Team of the Science and Technology Branch (STB) at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) repeated the process of generating annual crop inventory digital maps using satellite imagery to for all of Canada, in support of a national crop inventory. A Decision Tree (DT) based methodology was applied using optical (Landsat-8, Sentinel-2) based satellite images, and having a final spatial resolution of 30m. In conjunction with satellite acquisitions, ground-truth information was provided by: provincial crop insurance companies in Alberta, Manitoba, & Quebec; point observations from the PEI Department of Environment, Water and Climate Change; the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs; and data collection supported by our regional AAFC Research and Development Centres in St. John’s, Charlottetown, Fredericton, and Guelph. Due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, complete sampling coverages in NL, NS, NB and BC were not possible, as a result the general agriculture class (120) is found in these provinces in areas where there was no ground data collected.

    Manitoba market hog prices and United States (U.S.) iso-wean and feeder pig prices shown weekly and monthly for current and previous years. This table contains weekly and monthly prices paid for market hogs in Manitoba and iso-wean and feeder pigs in United States (U.S.) in current and previous years, as well as average prices for five and 10 previous years.  For hog price report definitions and calculations, click here.  Manitoba market hog prices are collected from major processors in Manitoba, compiled and released weekly by Manitoba Agriculture and Resource Development (ARD). Manitoba market hog prices are weighted by the volume of hogs processed, and averaged monthly. United States (U.S.) iso-wean and feeder pig prices are sourced from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and presented in Canadian dollars (C$) using the Bank of Canada exchange rate. Monthly U.S. iso-wean and feeder pig prices are a simple average of the weekly U.S. total composite weighted average prices. Average five and 10-year prices are calculated as simple averages of weekly or monthly prices. Fields included (Alias (Field name): Field description.) Period (Period): period of time to be presented on charts from the selection of Monthly and Weekly; ; PeriodNo (PeriodNo): serial number of period (1-12 for monthly presentation, 1-52 for weekly presentation); Hog category (Hog category): category of animals from the selection of U.S. feeder pigs, U.S. iso-wean pigs, Manitoba market hogs; Previous year price (Previous): animal price in corresponding period of previous year*; Current year price (Current): animal price in corresponding period of current year*; 5-year average price (Average5): animal price in corresponding period averaged over last 5 years (excluding current year)*; 10-year average price  (Average10): animal price in corresponding period averaged over last 10 years (excluding current year)*. *(C$ per head for U.S. feeder pigs and U.S. iso-wean pigs, C$ per 100 kg for Manitoba market hogs)
