Digital boundary files are available for the census agricultural regions
(CARs) for the 1991, 1996 and 2001 Censuses. These boundaries are used
by the Census of Agriculture for disseminating agricultural statistics.
Census agricultural regions are subprovincial geographic areas made up
of groups of adjacent census divisions. In Saskatchewan, census
agricultural regions are made up of groups of adjacent census
consolidated subdivisions but these groups do not necessarily respect
census division boundaries. Census agricultural regions have not been
defined in the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut. In the Prairie
provinces, census agricultural regions are commonly referred to as crop
districts. 

Coverage: All Canada except the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut
