- Articles and reports: 45-28-0001202000100086Description:
This article presents an analysis of the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the Canadian beef supply chain, from Ranch to Slaughter House, from Wholesale to Retail and from domestic market to Imports/Exports. The study uses various data sources from Statistics Canada and Agriculture and Agri-food Canada (AAFC) with main focus on wholesale services prices. This publication also uses data from the product-based development project for the Wholesale Services Price Index (WSPI) using the North American Product Classification System (NAPCS). This project is part of Statistics Canada's user-centric modernization initiative. The product-based WSPI data are not yet released to the public.
Note: The WSPI represents the change in the price of wholesale services, which is defined as the margin price (or margin). The margin is the difference between the average purchase price and the average selling price of a given product. It is not a wholesale selling price.

Release date: 2008-12-11 - 4. Grazing Management in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 21-021-M2005001Geography: CanadaDescription:
Grazing Management in Canada presents information on various characteristics of livestock grazing management as practised on Canadian farms. Canadian farmers are actively involved in environmental initiatives and are adopting farming practices that minimize pollution risks to air, water and soil, while contributing to the conservation of biodiversity. The FEMS results presented here provide an overview of grazing practices. However, management practices that could be protective or detrimental to the environment and that relate to grazing systems are much broader than those included in this bulletin. Further, regional differences in climate and soil quality mean that there is no "optimal" or "correct" grazing practice that is applicable throughout the whole country or even within an individual province.
In this paper, discussion focuses on farms with grazing cattle that derive 51% or more of their gross farm receipts from either beef or dairy production. Results show that grazing management practice varies by region of Canada and by farm size.

Release date: 2004-06-18 - 6. Mad Cow Disease and Beef Trade: An Update ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-621-M2004010Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article provides an update on the beef industry following the discovery of a single reported case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), or mad cow disease, on May 20, 2003. It covers data on beef exports, imports, production, live stocks, etc. In addition, the article compares farm prices for cattle with retail beef prices.
Release date: 2004-02-18 - 7. Mad Cow Disease and Beef Trade ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-621-M2003005Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper examines Canada's beef exports and imports throughout the early days of the beef export ban that came into effect on May 20, 2003. The Canadian beef export market was worth about $4.1 billion in 2002. These exports dropped to virtually zero in June, July and August after the implementation of a worldwide ban on Canadian beef products following the discovery of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) - more commonly known as mad cow disease - in a single cow. Canadian beef imports increased above historical levels in June before dropping in July and August. Canadian beef imports have not been trivial: they accounted for about $900 million in 2002 or almost 30% of the beef and veal consumed in Canada.
