- Articles and reports: 16-508-X2019004Description: This article presents emissions estimates related to spending on food and beverage products and services. These estimates are based on an input-output model that combines physical flow data on greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by industry with economic data on production and consumption of goods and services.Release date: 2019-10-09

The number of goats for dairy on agricultural operations in Ontario is increasing as farmers expand and optimize production.

Release date: 2017-12-06 - 4. Sour cherries in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 96-325-X200700010775Geography: CanadaDescription:
What could be better than a home-made cherry pie coming fresh out of the oven, with the wonderful smell of rich cherries and bright red juice. Historically there have been two main types of cherries; sweet cherries which we eat fresh from the tree and farmers markets in the summer, and sour cherries, which we find in a variety of processed forms. Sour cherries are aptly named for their sour flavour compared to the regular sweet cherries. Canadian plant breeders have been working to produce a third type of cherry, one that combines the best traits of both sweet and sour cherries.

Think fast, what's the first food you think of when someone says Thanksgiving dinner'? Most people would be quick to reply turkey of course. Increasingly, though, turkeys are no longer solely associated with Thanksgiving or Christmas and can be found year-round in our grocery stores and on our tables. In 2006, the Census of Agriculture identified 3,174 Canadian farms reported 7.7 million turkeys on their operations.

The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is one of a series of health-related programs sponsored by the United States National Center for Health Statistics. A unique feature of NHANES is the administration of a complete medical examination for each respondent in the sample. To standardize administration, these examinations are carried out in mobile examination centers. The examination includes physical measurements, tests such as eye and dental examinations, and the collection of blood and urine specimens for laboratory testing. NHANES is an ongoing annual health survey of the noninstitutionalized civilian population of the United States. The major analytic goals of NHANES include estimating the number and percentage of persons in the U.S. population and in designated subgroups with selected diseases and risk factors. The sample design for NHANES must create a balance between the requirements for efficient annual and multiyear samples and the flexibility that allows changes in key design parameters to make the survey more responsive to the needs of the research and health policy communities. This paper discusses the challenges involved in designing and implementing a sample selection process that satisfies the goals of NHANES.
Release date: 2008-06-26 - 7. That beet is sweet! ArchivedArticles and reports: 96-325-X200700010576Geography: Canada, Province or territoryDescription:
Sugar beets, significantly established in Canada in the first half of the 20th century, continue to sweeten things for farmers in Ontario and Alberta, according to Census of Agriculture data. Although Canada's sugar beet area in 2006, at 19,488 hectares, is only half the 1951 peak, the crop continues to thrive in Alberta, and has made a comeback in Ontario, a province where it had not been significant for decades.

Release date: 2005-06-28 - Articles and reports: 21-004-X19990034498Geography: CanadaDescription:
Canadian farmers are successfully meeting the demand for fresh fruit and vegetables during the local growing season. Due to the short duration of the growing season however, imports are required to fill the shelves for a significant part of the year. Although overall prices for fresh produce are trending downwards, these imports cost more in the grocery stores and fresh markets than domestic produce.
