Due to confidentiality constraints, the data for census divisions with very few farms have been combined with the data from one or more adjacent areas. The following table lists these geographic amalgamations, in alphabetical order by census division, within a province. The name of the census division that is the largest component of the amalgamation appears in the first column of the table. This is the census division for which data are available. The second column lists the names of all the census divisions that were merged and the number of farms located in each in 2001.

Statistics Canada – Catalogue No. 95F0301XIE 13 Farm data: initial release Data notes

During each Census of Agriculture the data validation process identifies some instances in which data either are not directly comparable to those from previous censuses or are of reduced quality, primarily due to coverage or response errors. The following notes identify the variables affected and explain the situation associated with each.

1 Due to both undercoverage and response errors, the total number of farms producing certified organic products for sale is under-reported.
