  • 2. Land use, land tenure and management practices Archived
    Thematic map: 95-634-X201700154903
    Description:

    This second set of thematic maps, based on the 2016 Census of Agriculture data, present the following theme: land use, land tenure and management practices. It includes maps about land use, land tenure, agricultural practices, land inputs, technologies used on the operation and renewable energy production on the operation.

  • 3. Application of quality control in ICR data capture: 2001 Canadian Census of Agriculture Archived
    Articles and reports: 12-001-X20040027750
    Description:

    Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) has been widely used as a new technology in data capture processing. It was used for the first time at Statistics Canada to process the 2001 Canadian Census of Agriculture. This involved many new challenges, both operational and methodological. This paper presents an overview of the methodological tools used to put in place an efficient ICR system. Since the potential for high levels of error existed at various stages of the operation, Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) methods and procedures were built into this operation to ensure a high degree of accuracy in the captured data. This paper describes these QA / QC methods along with their results and shows how quality improvements were achieved in the ICR Data Capture operation. This paper also identifies the positive impacts of these procedures on this operation.

  • 5. The Rise and Fall of Fall Rye Archived
    Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 96-328-M2004014
    Geography: Geographical region of Canada
    Description:

    This activity looks at declining demand for fall rye and the resultant decline in the amount grown on the Prairies. Using rye as a case study, we see how changes in agricultural practices and changes in the population affect what farmers grow.

  • 6. Enhancing Food Safety and Productivity: Technology Use in the Canadian Food Processing Industry Archived
    Articles and reports: 11F0019M2002168
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This paper examines the factors contributing to the adoption of advanced technologies in the Canadian food-processing sector. The numbers of technologies used by a plant is found to be highly correlated with expected gains in firm performance. The benefits of enhanced food safety and quality, as well as productivity improvements, are closely associated with technology use. Impediments that negatively affect technology use include software costs, problems with external financing, lack of cash flow for financing, and internal management problems. Even after accounting for the different benefits and costs associated with technology adoption, the numbers of advanced technologies that are adopted are found to be greater in larger plants, in foreign-controlled plants, in plants that engage in both primary and secondary processing, and in the dairy, fruit and vegetable and "other" food product industries.
