Book Description
This report records how agricultural land is used and managed in Canada using responses from the 1991 census of agriculture; produces a study to serve as a baseline for all subsequent monitoring of land management practices through the census; and provides information for environmental studies of soil and water. An overview of land management describes applications of nutrients, herbicides, and pesticides and methods used to control soil erosion. Summaries of land practices are given by region (British Columbia, the Prairies, Central Canada, and Atlantic Canada), and cover manure, fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides, irrigation, erosion control, and tillage methods.
