Census of Agriculture Toolkit

Welcome to the 2026 Census of Agriculture Community Supporter Toolkit

The Census of Agriculture provides community-level data on a wide range of agricultural topics. It identifies trends and provides information on emerging issues, opportunities, and challenges within the agricultural community. For example, topics include:

  • land use
  • crops
  • livestock
  • agricultural labour
  • machinery and equipment
  • land management practices
  • farm finances.

In the Census of Agriculture toolkit you will find tools, resources and information that you and your organization can share with your network about the 2026 Census of Agriculture.
