This document summarizes Canada's experience collecting agricultural land data for its Census of Agriculture. It discusses how Canada collects total land area at the holding level, including breakdowns by land use and tenure. It also describes how Canada is moving to collect more detailed geographic data at the parcel level, leveraging crop insurance and remote sensing data to obtain complete land cover information without direct farmer contact. This helps validate census data and produce accurate crop area estimates.

Precision agriculture (PA) is an approach to farm management that uses information technology (IT) to ensure that the crops and soil receive exactly what they need for optimum health and productivity. The goal of PA is to ensure profitability, sustainability and protection of the environment. PA is also known as satellite agriculture, as-needed farming and site-specific crop management (SSCM).
When we think of agriculture we think of cultivation,
plant life, soil fertility, types of crops, terrestrial environment,
etc. But in today’s world we associate with agriculture terms
like climate change, irrigation facilities, technological
advancements, synthetic seeds, advanced machinery etc. In
short we are interested in how science of today can help us in
the field of agriculture. And so comes into the picture
Precision Agriculture (PA).
The general definition is information and technology
based farm management system to identify, analyze and
manage spatial and temporal variability within fields for
optimum productivity and profitability, sustainability and
protection of the land resource by minimizing the production
costs. Simply put, precision farming is an approach where
inputs are utilized in precise amounts to get increased average
yields compared to traditional cultivation techniques. Hence it
is a comprehensive system designed to optimize production
with minimal adverse impact on our terrestrial system. [1]
The three major components of precision agriculture
are information, technology and management. Precision
farming is information-intense. Precision Agriculture is a
management strategy that uses information technologies to
collect valuable data from multiple sources. This type of analyzing data gives idea what to do in upcoming years to tackle the situations.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

3. Background
The Census of Agriculture (CEAG) provides a
comprehensive and integrated profile of the
physical, economic, social and environmental
aspects of Canada’s agriculture industry.
◦ It is used to track agricultural trends.
◦ Provide insight and measure the health of the agricultural
industry in Canada.
This presentation will highlight our method of
collect data on agricultural land.
3
4. Total area of holding
CEAG requires respondents to report their land
area to ensure the collection of measurements of
agricultural land, which is vital in agricultural
census analysis.
We collect three important variables
◦ Total land
◦ Total net area = Total land - Area of land used by others
◦ Total area in use
Total farm area
◦ Total farm area, which is land owned or operated by an
agricultural operation, includes: cropland, summerfallow,
improved and unimproved pasture, woodlands and wetlands,
all other land (including idle land and land on which farm
buildings are located). 4

Total area of holding
Total farm area, cropland area and number of agricultural
operations, Canada, 1961 to 2016
6. Area of holding according to land use types
Following the Total Net Area, further breakdown of this variable is necessary
to identify characteristics of the land
CEAG land use classes:
Cropland: all land used to grow crops, sod, nursery and Christmas trees
Summerfallow: land used to practice cultivating and/or applying chemicals to cultivate land to
keep it free from vegetation
Tame or seeded pasture: Land seeded with pasture with the intent of taken care of it
Natural land for pasture: Land used for pasture with minimal land work
Woodlands and wetlands: land used for woodlots, sugar bushes, trees windbreaks, bush,
ponds, bogs, marshes, sloughs etc.
All other land: Idle land, land on which farm buildings, barnyards, lanes, home gardens,
greenhouses and mushroom houses are located

11. Information at the parcel level
Currently
The Census of Agriculture disseminates data at what would be equivalent of a township, county or
regional level.
As farms grew in size and began to have operations which crossed these lower level geographies
we began a process that collects more detailed geographic data on the footprint of these
operations.
We look only to secure data from operations judged most likely to cross regional boundaries.
We seek to collect basic information on the proportional allocation of land uses and livestock
types in each region.
This data is then combined with census data to derive a more reflective regional image of
agricultural activity.
This limited approach balances the need for data with response burden and collection costs from a
conventional survey type program.
Future
As we increase our access to administrative data, we will have more information at the parcel
level.
We should be able to draw upon crop insurance, utility, property assessment, land registry,
livestock traceability and remote sensing data sets to establish with a high degree of confidence
land tenure, use, practices and inventories.
11
12. Crop Insurance and Remote Sensing
CEAG continues to evolve by findings new
methods to release accurate and timely
information
With the use of crop insurance and remote
sensing
◦ The objective of this methodology is to produce accurate
crop area estimations without any direct contact with
farmers (reduce response burden)
◦ Validate the Census of Agriculture data to ensure high
quality data

13. Crop Insurance
• Administered by each province
• Different database format and specifications for
each province
• Georeferencing in different formats
• Québec: exact field boundary in GIS format
• Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba: percentage of a
quarter-section
• Ontario: farm level
Useful for :
• Get a general distribution of the crops by region
• Used in conjunction with satellite imagery to get full
coverage

Statistics Canada does not collect data on :
0209 Use of shifting cultivation (for each parcel) - This practice is rarely used in Canada.
0210 Number of years since cleared (for each parcel) - – However, Natural Resources Canada has information on: Deforestation in Canada – http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/forests/fire-insects-disturbances/deforestation/13419
Canada’s deforestation rate is among the lowest in the world.
The annual deforestation rate in Canada in 2010 was less than 0.02% of our forests and the rate has been declining for over 25 years. In 1990, 63,100 hectares were lost to deforestation and in 2014 this figure dropped to 34,200 hectares. Today, Canada’s 348 million hectares of forest lands represent about 9% of the world’s forest cover, but account for only 0.3% of global deforestation.
0211 Presence of soil degradation: type and degree (for the holding). - However, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada has information on sol and land:
