What's new for 2001Data dissemination Electronic formats (Internet/CD-ROM) replace paper as the primary dissemination media for 2001 Census of Agriculture data products. A full edition of The Daily featuring analytical text and charts will be available on Statistics Canada's Web site. New topicsComputer use for farm management As it has since 1991, the Census of Agriculture will have data on the number of farmers using a computer to manage their farm. In 2001 however, data will also be available for the first time on whether they are using it for accounting, inventory control, word processing, Internet, e-mail or some other application. Leased machinery In 2001, the Census of Agriculture asked respondents to distinguish between "owned" and "leased" for each type of farm machinery and equipment. Past censuses have not made this distinction. Certified organic products 2001 data also include information on how
many farmers are producing certified organic commodities and categorizes
them by type (fruit, vegetables, greenhouse products, field crops, animals
or animal products, or "other"). |
