The Crop Stress Index is the ratio of actual evapotranspiration (AET) to potential evapotranspiration (PET) express as: CSI = 1-(AET/PET) AET and PET are calculated within the Versatile Soil Moisture Budget (VSMB) model using temperature and precipitation data and a crop-specific biometeorological time scale model to estimate growth stage (Robertson, 1968), with crop specific phenological and crop water extraction coefficients taken from Chipanshi et al 2013. The WDI ranges between 0 and 1, with a value closer to 1 indicating higher stress Crop Stress Index is modelled for each climate station using measured precipitation and temperature

The Nova Scotia Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture is the lead regulatory of rockweed leasing and licensing. This file illustrates all the issued rockweed leases along the coast of Nova Scotia. Fisheries and Aquaculture also provides a Nova Scotia Aquaculture and Rockweed Map viewer at: https://fishaqua.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/media/index.html?appid=a7c3520e73894539afadf8602ee57ef1

Crop development stage in a numerical scale. All living organisms move from one stage of development to the next over time. For annual crops, it life cycle (growing season) completed within a year. Crop water use differs from one stage to another mostly due to the differences in the amount of green leaves, thus crop stage is closely related to its water consumption and water stress condition. Crop stages are mostly controlled by growing season heat accumulation and regulated by day-length crop some crops. The crop stages provided here are determined by a biometeorlogical time scale model (Robertson, 1968) for cool season crops (wheat, barley etc.) , and a Crop Heat Unit (Brown and Bootsma, 1993) algorithm for warm season crops (corn and soybean etc.).

This data shows spatial density of oats cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which oats are 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 oats based on analysis of the 2009 to 2021 AAFC annual crop inventory data.

Map showing locations of co-packer services in Manitoba. This map shows the locations of co-packer services in Manitoba. A contract manufacturer or co-packer is a company that manufactures and/or packages food for other companies to sell. This list is not inclusive nor an endorsement for services. For more information, visit Manitoba Agriculture. This map uses the feature layer Manitoba Co-Packer Services and forms part of the Manitoba Co-Packer Services App.

This data shows spatial density of canary seed cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which canary seed 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 canary seed based on analysis of the 2009 to 2021 AAFC annual crop inventory data.

This data shows spatial density of flax cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which flax 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 flax based on analysis of the 2009 to 2021 AAFC annual crop inventory data.

This file outlines the boundaries of the 15 risk areas defined by Manitoba Agricultural Services Corporation. Manitoba Agricultural Services Corporation (MASC) divides Manitoba into 15 Risk Areas of similar crop production risks, which are used to determine the premiums a producer country and the coverage that crops receive. For more information, visit MASC's website: https://www.masc.mb.ca/masc.nsf/maps_risk_areas.html This file describes the boundaries of the 15 at-risk areas defined by the Manitoba Agricultural Services Corporation. The Manitoba Agricultural Services Corporation divides Manitoba into 15 high-risk regions where crop production risks are similar. They are used to determine the premium the producer pays and the coverage the crops receive.

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.
