Riassunto

Excerpt from Canada's Export Market Development for Agricultural Products

Canada is one of the world's leading producers and exporters of food and feed. Wheat is by far the principal crop. Next in importance, in terms of area, are barley, oats, rapeseed, mixed grains, and linseed In the foreseeable future, wheat will undoubtedly remain Canada's most important crop, but during the late l96o's and early 1970's wheat lost its overwhelmingly preeminent position, while barley and rape seed gained in both absolute and relative terms. Sudden surges in wheat prices bring about temporary and large increases in wheat area, as in 1973, and affect the position of barley and rapeseed relative to wheat. 2/ But it appears unlikely by now that Canadian farmers will return permanently to the old cropping pattern, in which the acreage in wheat was three or four times larger than the area in barley and the acreage in rapeseed was negligible.

Wheat and other grains generally account for about-25 percent of total farm cash receipts; rapeseed and other oilseeds for 3 to 5 percent, and tobacco for approximately 3 percent. 3] Production of grains and oilseeds is concentrated in the three Prairie provinces-manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. About 90 percent of the tobacco is grown in four counties in southwestern Ontario.
