With an area of over 63,000 km2, the agricultural zone extends over the territory of metropolitan communities, census metropolitan areas, census agglomerations and 954 municipalities located in the 17 administrative regions of Quebec. The land integrated into the agricultural zone is mainly found in southern Quebec, along the St. Lawrence River and in certain peripheral regions, in short, where the biophysical environment offers the best characteristics for the practice of agricultural activities. · Source of the digital agricultural zone. The reference documents that served as the basis for the digitization of the agricultural zone are: the Quebec topographic database (BDTQ) at a scale of 1:20,000, the cadastral compilation at a scale of 1:20,000, the official maps of the boundary of the agricultural zone and their technical descriptions. · Warning and limitations o The file of the boundaries of the agricultural zone does not include any inclusions or exclusions. o The numerical boundaries of the agricultural zone and their technical descriptions. · Warning and limitations o The file of the boundaries of the agricultural zone does not include any inclusions or exclusions o The numerical boundaries of the agricultural zone have been validated visually by superposition with the limits appearing on the official maps . This first version was produced and distributed in response to repeated requests from various organizations that wanted to have a general overview of the agricultural area. It has no legal value. In fact, the 1:20,000 scale paper plans accompanying government decrees establishing agricultural areas by municipality are the official and legal version of the boundaries of the agricultural zone. These plans are submitted to the Commission de Protection du Terrain Agricole du Québec, to the registrar of rights officer and to the clerk or secretary-treasurer of the local municipality concerned. o With the progress of cadastral renovation, more and more territories in agricultural areas are dependent on the new cadastre. The renovated cadastre has the advantage of being more precise and better structured than the cadastral compilation. On the other hand, you should know that the agricultural area was demarcated using the cadastral compilation. As a result, the zoning assigned to a renovated lot is sometimes difficult to establish with certainty in cases where one is located near the boundary between the agricultural zone and the non-agricultural zone. This difficulty arises from the discrepancy between the boundaries of the lots in the cadastral compilation and the renovated cadastre. Therefore, in order to limit the risks of misinterpretation, refer to paper plans at a scale of 1:20,000 or contact our information service to determine the zoning assigned to a lot. A project to adjust the boundary of the agricultural zone to the cadastral renovation lots is under way. o During digitization, arbitrations had to be made when there was a discrepancy between the digital source elements and the same elements from the same elements from the official maps of the agricultural area. In addition, the assembly of paper maps into a continuous digital agricultural zone reveals a lack of uniformity at the level of the boundaries of the agricultural zone in a water environment. A revision aimed at correcting this lack of coherence is under consideration, although it has legal constraints.
