Updated tables containing comparative data on the North American production of fruits, vegetables, flowers, plants and nursery products are now available. The statistics compared area harvested, marketed production and value for fruits and field vegetables, as well as data on greenhouse flowers and nursery products in Canada, Mexico and the United States for 2011. Historical data from 2003 to 2010 with revisions, where applicable, are also available.

The tables include data originally published separately by the three countries. They provide a single, convenient place for data users to compare aspects of agricultural production. The information is published by the North American Tripartite Committee on Agricultural Statistics, a joint initiative among agricultural statistics agencies in Canada, Mexico and the United States. The committee works to promote the sharing of information and standardization of data among the three countries and their various agencies.

Member organizations include Statistics Canada's Agriculture Division; the Agricultural and Fisheries Information Service of the Mexican Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural Development, Fisheries, and Food; the Mexican National Institute of Statistics and Geography; and the US Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service.

Data on the North American production of fruits, vegetables, flowers, plants and nursery products are now available online (http://webpage.siap.gob.mx/index.php).
