- 1. Protecting Crops from Pests ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 96-328-M2004011Description:
This activity explores the use of pesticides in protecting crops, including the risks and benefits.
Release date: 2004-08-30 - Articles and reports: 21-004-X20030036482Geography: Canada, Province or territoryDescription:
Since their introduction in the mid-1990s, genetically modified seeds have become increasingly popular among Eastern Canadian corn and soybean producers. These producers use the seeds to limit insect damage to crops, or to provide their crops with a resistance to herbicides that would otherwise kill the plants.
Statistics Canada has collected data on genetically modified soybeans and corn in Quebec and Ontario for the past three years. In its field crop surveys, the Agency has tracked plantings, harvestings, production and expected yields for soybeans and corn grown from genetically modified seeds.
Release date: 2003-03-31 - Articles and reports: 21-601-M2002054Geography: Province or territoryDescription:
This report focusses on the changes in the area of genetically modified (GM) grain corn and soybeans in Quebec and Ontario.
Release date: 2002-09-03 - 4. Growers of Genetically Modified Grain Corn and Soybeans in Quebec and Ontario: A Profile ArchivedArticles and reports: 21-601-M2002052Geography: Province or territoryDescription:
This study presents data collected since June 2000 on genetically modified (GM) seeds used in grain corn and soybean cropping in Quebec and Ontario.
Release date: 2002-02-13 - Articles and reports: 21-004-X20010035613Geography: Canada, Province or territoryDescription:
The most widely discussed agricultural topic in recent years is the risks and opportunities presented by food products obtained through biotechnology, especially those derived from genetically modified seeds (GMS). According to the June 2000 survey on field crops, 16% of all soybean acreage in Quebec, and 18% of that in Ontario, was planted with genetically modified seeds. The percentage of corn in both provinces was 27%. Most farms using GMS corn and soybeans are located in Ontario and Quebec where the production of both of these crops is concentrated.
