    The “Biomass Inventory Cartographic Layer” dataset provides the information that is used with the Biomass Report Framework to generate a visual representation of the availability of agricultural and forestry biomass and municipal solid waste in Canada. In addition to yield and production information for biomass produced by the agricultural and forestry industries, this dataset also provides information about the demand for agricultural residues for cattle feed and bedding, tillage systems currently in use on agricultural lands, and land suitability for hybrid poplar and willow plantations that are grown specifically to produce biomass. Agricultural information includes the median annual residue yield and available residue amounts. Residue yields were calculated using crop-to-residue ratios. The available residue information includes the amount that is available after adjusting for the estimated demand of straw used for cattle feed and bedding. Forestry estimates include average residue production, based on forestry activities including permitted amounts of harvesting, mills in operation and mill production. Municipal Solid Waste information includes organic waste (food and yard), paper waste and total residential municipal solid waste (which includes organic and paper waste, among others).

    The “Municipal Solid Waste Biomass Inventory” dataset is a stand-alone product that provides information on the calculated amount of Municipal Solid Waste within each BIMAT grid cell that includes a population centre. Data was provided by National Research Council Canada, with estimates based on census data collected in 2016. This dataset was calculated using an area-weighted analysis between population centres across Canada, Municipal Solid Waste data and the Biomass Report Framework fishnet. It includes information for total residential municipal solid waste, total organic waste (food and yard) and total paper waste.

    The “Biomass Agriculture Inventory 1-in-10 Probability” dataset is a table that contains the estimated 1-in-10 year low for agricultural residue yield and crop production for each Biomass Report Framework. It provides the tenth percentile values for the years 1985-2016. The table includes straw or stover information for barley, wheat, flax, oats and corn, and crop information for barley, wheat, flax, oats, corn, canola and soybean. This dataset also includes information about the type of tillage used in the area and demand for straw for cattle bedding and feed. These values are derived from Statistics Canada data. Additionally, the dataset includes the amount of agricultural residue calculated as necessary to remain on the field to prevent soil degradation. Soil degradation is determined by the type of tillage in use as well as the landscape of the area.

    This dataset is no longer maintained by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and should be considered as an archived product. For current estimates of the agricultural extent in Canada please refer to the Agricultural Ecumeme produced by Statistics Canada. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/catalogue/92-639-X The Agriculture Extent of Canada derived from the AVHRR (Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) was obtained from the GeoGratis web site (www.geogratis.ca). All polygons with an area less than 50 Km sq were eliminated by GeoGratis before we received the data. This product allows the user to see the significant areas of cropland and rangeland across Canada.

    Les Silos à grains du Canada – jeu de données contient la liste des silos à grains au Canada telle qu’elle est communiquée par la Commission canadienne des grains (CCG). Les silos ont été localisés dans toute la mesure du possible selon leur emplacement réel, plutôt qu’une généralisation au point milieu du nom de la gare. De plus, l’information relative aux places de wagons du CN, du CP et des entreprises céréalières a été ajoutée lorsqu’elle a été publiée. Le présent jeu de données vise à offrir l’étendue temporelle et géographique des silos à grains au Canada. www.agr.gc.ca/atlas/metadonnees/5e0b5778-80cd-4697-8b84-23b4a814c1ae

    The Database of Declared Agricultural Parcels and Productions (BDPPAD) consists of polygons in vector format representing the outline of agricultural plots that have been associated with the files of clients of La Financière Agricole du Québec (FADQ) since 2003. The plots are kept from year to year to constitute a bank of plots covering as much territory as possible, whether the associated customer is active or not. For each insurance year, agricultural production is associated with the plots that active customers declare to cultivate.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

    Cet ensemble de données est aligné sur une grille et comprend un ensemble de données sur les attributs des sols respectant les normes et les spécifications du projet GlobalSoilMap à des incréments de profondeur spécifiés. Il s'étend sur la partie agricole du Canada. Les polygones de cartes du PPC ont été rastérisés et combinés à la grille de la mission SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) avec une grille de 90 mètres pour créer l'ensemble de données matricielles quadrillé. Des moyennes pondérées des attributs des sols sont générées à partir d'information existante sur l'horizon pédologique pour respecter les incréments de profondeur fixes reconnus. Les moyennes pondérées des attributs des sols sont calculées en utilisant toutes les composantes des sols à partir de leur superficie dans chaque polygone du PPC. Les moyennes pondérées des attributs des polygones sont représentées spatialement par la grille.

    The “Agricultural Major Land Practices Groups of the Canadian Prairies” dataset lays out the areas of the 5 Major Land Practices Groups of the agricultural portions of the Canadian Prairies. They are represented by vector polygons amalgamated (dissolved) from the Version 1.9 SLC polygons sharing common water resources, land use and farming practices as developed in the “Agricultural Land Practices Groups of the Canadian Prairies by SLC Polygon” of this series. The dataset is based upon selected attributes from the Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) and the 1996 Census of Agriculture. Typical attributes including: land in pasture, land in summerfallow, crop mixture, farm size and the level of chemical and fertilizer inputs.

    Ces données, tirées du Recensement de l’agriculture de 2011, proviennent de la documentation publiée ou préliminaire décrivant le secteur des céréales et des légumineuses. L’ensemble de données a été créé pour faciliter la description géographique et l’analyse du secteur, ainsi que la production de rapports connexe. La sélection de variables du Recensement de l’agriculture de 2011 s’est appuyée sur le document « Projet de stratégie scientifique de la DGST pour les céréales et les légumineuses » (version 21 produite le 25 février 2014) document dans lequel il est écrit: « Voici la liste des céréales et des légumineuses qui relèvent des programmes de la DGST, et par conséquent de la présente stratégie scientifique sectorielle: Céréales; blé (toutes catégories), orge (de brasserie et fourragère), avoine, seigle, triticale; maïs-grain. Légumineuses; haricots secs (blanc et de couleur), pois secs (verts, jaunes et autres), lentilles, pois chiches.» Pour plus d’information, consulter : www.agr.gc.ca/atlas/metadonnees/5a8973f8-1d7c-4ead-a1a6-2883b7b9a8b6

    This dataset is a rasterized version of the Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) dataset. Soil attributes in this dataset have been collated from SLC map polygons and follow the GlobalSoilMap.net standards and specifications at specified depth increments extending over the agricultural portion of Canada. Weighted averages of soil attribute properties are generated from existing soil horizon information to conform to recognized fixed depth increments. Soil attribute weighted means are calculated by using all the soil components based on their areal extent within each SLC polygon. The weighted mean averages of attributes are spatially represented by the grid along with the lowest and highest attribute values found within each polygon.
