CENSUS ASKS 400,00
FOR FARM FACTS
Ottawa — Canada's farmers will
have: two questionaires to fill in
for the 1971 Census. In addition
to the population and housing
questionnaire, by which they and
their families will be counted,
they will alSo get a 1971 Cen8u8
of Agriculture form. Answers to
this questionaire by an estimated
400,000 farmers will provide
detailed information on the state.
Of Canadian Agriculture,
Everyone operating an agricul-
tural holding of one acre ar more
and having sold $50 or More of
agricultural products in 1970 Will
be required to fill in a Census of
Agriculture form,
This year's farm censits. which
has some new questions as com-
pared with previous censuses, will
yield significant inforMation on
changes in patterns Of agrictil-
Ural produetion.
Questionaires in the farin
'is will he dropped off at the farm-
houses, along with the Population
and housing questionaires, in the
last week of May. In both cases,
farmers will be asked to complete
their own questionaires. The
forms will be picked up by census
representatives starting June 2.
The farm qiiestiOnaire is, at
first glance, a formidable,loOking
40gitMent It Rgks 100 qii.9stionK
-- but in a way that it is easy for
a fanner to skip questions that do
not apply to him, and answer only
those that apply to his particular
operation, The qnestionaire has
been carefully designed to make
it as easy as possible for the
farmer to fill it in• correctly.
Two of the new questions in
the 1971, farm census one on
fertilizer use, the other on spray-
ing and dusting — are designed
to yield information on techno-
logical , changes in agricultural
Practices. Another new question
asks about the type of farm
ownership — whether private,
partnership, institutional, or in-
corporated.,
The most important information
on changes in agriculture pro-
duction patterns will come from
answers to the basic ouestions:
those on acreages land use, crops,
livestock and poultry. Policy
planners and. marketing agencies
will be looking at the compli-
ation8 deriVed from these answers
for such infOrmation as:
the extent of the shift out of
wheat into other grains, and
oher field crops
the rate of increase in oil-
seeds production, and the
groWth in the importance of
oilseeds as cash crops.
— the extent of shifts from
crops into livestock and as
between kinds of livestock,
and
— how farms are continning to
decrease in number and in-
crease in average acreage.
While' such treads can be
estimated to reasonable degrees
of accuracy by sample surveys
between censuses, the Census of
Agriculture is needed every five
years to provide new benchmark
information on Which to base Sue-
teeding estimates,
In addition, the Census is the
only source of national cropland
data and livestock and poultry
inventories for any given small
area in Canada. Such information
is essential to studies oil Crop and
livestock prodaction and markei-
ifid, and in the studies on farms
classified by size, type and econ-
omic class.
These studies, in turn, are basic
to all policy planning and decis-
ion Making in marketing pro-
grams. They also provide infor-
Mation for the use of farm organ-
izations and the provincial exten-
toia ill, t 401r prvg,rpo
for the development of agricul-
lure, as well as for use by farmers'
themselves.
A basic, trend in Canadian agri-
culture, evident. since 1951, will
undoubtedly be ,repeated in the
1971 Census results: a continuing
decline in the number .of farms,
combined with an increase in the
average acreage per farm. In 19(16
the number of farms wa s 430,52C
down 10.5 per cent from 480,903
in .1961.
In the same period, the average
farm size increased to 404 acres
from 359, a. trend txuerienced by
every province except Newfound.
land. On a regional basis, the.
Prairies had the largest increase,
to an average of 635 acres from
617 in 1961; by contrast. the in-
crease in the Central Region aver-
aged only 10 acres — up to 161
from 151.
Of greater importance than the
size and number of census fartns
is what is being done with them,
This has been highlighted by
wheat-Marketing problems' in
recent years. shifts in world
markets for other Canadian, agri-
cultural precincts, and the Ways in
which. Canadian farmers have
adapted their production. to meet
these changes.
What the census tells on chang,
es in land. use and production
patterns since the 1966 census is
therefore invaluable for planning,
as it affects the future of Canad,
ions in world markets,
"When that naughty bey threw
stones at you." the mother scold-
ed her son, "why didn't you come
and tell are. instead of throwing
stones hack at him?"
"What good would that do?"
asked the boy. "You couldn't hit
the side of a barn."
