Mapping application offering hourly weather updates provided by Manitoba Agriculture. Manitoba Agriculture's weather program operates over 100 weather stations that provide regularly updated data on air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, wind speed and direction, soil temperature, soil temperature, soil moisture, and barometric pressure. Warning: The Manitoba Agriculture Weather Program reports data at intervals of 15 minutes, 1 hour, and 1 day. However, values may change due to corrections, calibrations, or disturbances caused by equipment malfunction. The data shown has undergone minimal quality control. The Manitoba Agriculture Weather Program provides data “as is” and disclaims all warranties, express or implied. In no event will the Manitoba Agriculture Weather Program be liable for any direct or indirect, incidental, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages resulting from the use or misuse of the data or products and services derived from the data. For inquiries, please email agriculture@gov.mb.ca. **This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The national agricultural ecumene includes all dissemination areas with 'significant' agricultural activity. Agricultural indicators, such as the ratio of agricultural land on census farms relative to total land area, and total economic value of agricultural production, are used. Regional variations are also taken into account. The ecumene is generalized for small-scale mapping. A new version of the agricultural ecumene is generated every census years (in vector format) since 1986. This file was produced by Statistics Canada, Agriculture Division, Remote Sensing and Geospatial Analysis section, 2017, Ottawa.

The Canada Land Inventory (CLI), 1:000,000, Land 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.

Web app showing locations of co-packer services in Manitoba. This web application 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 app uses the Manitoba Co-Packer Services feature layer and the Manitoba Co-Packer Services Map.

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.

The Grain Elevators in Canada – 2014 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.

In 2014, 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) and radar (RADARSAT-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 and point observations from the BC Ministry of Agriculture and our regional AAFC colleagues.
