This data shows spatial density of Cereals cultivation in Canada. Regions with higher calculated spatial densities represent agricultural regions of Canada in which Cereals 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 Cereals based on analysis of the 2009 to 2021 AAFC annual crop inventory data. Cereals consist of the following specific crop types from the AAFC annual crop inventory; Cereals, Barley (including Spring and Winter), Greenfeed / Mixed Cereals, Millet, Oats, Rye (including Spring and Winter), Spelt, Triticale (including Spring and Winter), Wheat (including Spring and Winter), and Other Cereal

The “Biomass Agriculture Inventory 1-in-20 Probability” dataset is a table that contains the estimated 1-in-20 year low for agricultural residue yield and crop production for each Biomass Report Framework. It provides the fifth 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 used 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 type of the area.

The “Biomass Agriculture Inventory Median Values” dataset is a table that contains the median agricultural residue yield and crop production for each Biomass Report Framework cell. It provides the median annual value 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 used 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. The risk of soil degradation is directly related to the type of tillage in use as well as the landscape attributes of the area.

In 2019, 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) 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 in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, & Quebec; point observations from the PEI Department of Environment, Water and Climate Change and data collection supported by our regional AAFC Research and Development Centres in St. John’s, Kentville, Charlottetown, Fredericton, and Guelph.

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.

The Estimated Historical Crop Yields in Canada by SLC (kg\hectare) dataset is produced by combining three complementary sources of yield information at the Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC) level. First, provincial-level yields for seven major crops are allocated down to SLC polygons using area-based adjustments and statistical scaling. Second, forage yields (alfalfa, improved pasture, unimproved pasture) are taken directly from the EPIC model, which already outputs data at the SLC level. Third, insurance yield datasets (for the Prairies) are linked to SLC polygons and incorporated where available. These three sources are harmonized, ensuring consistency across crops and regions, resulting in a comprehensive SLC-level crop yield dataset for national-scale modeling and reporting. This dataset was created primarily in support of Statistics Canada’s Census of Environment. This data can also be used for national scale modelling, calibration of agricultural models, and reporting for the agri-environmental indicators.

The cloud-corrected NDVI data extracted from historical MODIS satellite images at 250 metre resolution provides reliable, objective, and timely information on the state of vegetation throughout Canada and the northern United States. The methodology applied to the images has remained the same as for the program formerly known as the Crop Condition Assessment Program (CCAP). Since the 2000 growing season, Statistics Canada has been processing and compiling MODerate-resolution Imaging Spectoradiometer (MODIS) data (250 metre resolution). The Multi-Spectral Instrument (MSI) captures two spectral bands (red and infrared) that have proven to be extremely useful to produce the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) utilized for vegetation monitoring. The original NDVI image composites were produced by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (link to original data in the resources section). Additional computations were completed by Statistics Canada to remove the effects of residual clouds and to calculate and extract the NDVI by geographic region. This dataset provides access to the MODIS images from 2000 to present in GeoTIFF format and covers the crop area during the growing season (Julian weeks 15 to 37; mid-April to mid-September). It also provides access to a database that contains the statistical NDVI by geographic regions (Townships, Census Consolidated Subdivisions (CCS), Census Divisions (CD) and Census Agricultural Regions (CAR)) and agricultural masks (Agriculture (AGR), Crop (CROP) and Pasture (PAS)).
