This product presents selected 2001 and historical data from the Census of Agriculture - Census of Population Linkage database. The data are available at the Canada and province levels for free. The data variables include: age; sex; marital status; mother tongue; highest level of schooling; net farm income; as well as farm population counts and income profiles for census farm families and households.

(No linkage databases were created for the 1966 and 1976 Census years, so historical comparisons are not possible for those years.)

Content note

This unique Agriculture-Population Linkage database is created by identifying farm operators as reported on the Census of Agriculture questionnaire and obtaining their information from the Census of Population long form questionnaire to provide a social and economic profile of the farm operators, their families and households. The ability to link the Census of Agriculture data to the Census of Population database provides a wealth of information pertaining to the social and economic characteristics of the farm population.
