When answering the questions, please include as of the reference day:
Legal Name
The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.
Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.
To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.
Operating Name
The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.
Current main activity of the business or organization
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.
The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.
The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational unit(s) targeted by this questionnaire only, and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.
The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.
Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.
Include all livestock on your operation as of the reference day, regardless of ownership, including livestock pastured, custom fed or fed under contract for others.
Include all livestock owned by the operator and held on Crown land, community pastures and grazing projects.
Exclude livestock which are owned by you but kept on a farm, ranch, or feedlot operated by someone else.
Community pastures, grazing associations, Crown land: a community pasture or grazing reserve can be a federal, provincial or municipal land operated by a manager and rented to livestock producers for pasturing animals at a fixed fee per head. A co-operative grazing association is a group of people who usually incorporate and rent or lease land for a common grazing area.
Note: forest reserves fall under the category of grazing reserve. Crown land is land owned by the government (municipal, provincial or federal) and generally managed by the government. Crown land does not necessarily have to be used for the purpose of grazing livestock, although grazing does take place on Crown land, particularly in British Columbia.
Fed under contract / custom feeding: livestock are fed under a pre-arranged agreement with a company (for example feed mill) or another producer to feed the cattle or hogs to market weight. Usually the "feed" operator owns the buildings and supplies the labour but does not own the livestock.
Feedlot (cattle): feedlots are operations where livestock are fattened for market. A feedlot operation may own the animals, or may feed them for other operators for a fee, or both.
Note: feedlots are more applicable to cattle.
Feeding and finishing operations (pigs): feeding and finishing operations are applicable to pigs. Hog feeding and finishing operations are operations in which hogs are fed to market weight. Usually there are no breeding sows or boars in these operations other than those culled from a breeding herd, being fattened for slaughter.
Slaughtered for own consumption: if there are any livestock (cattle, hogs, or sheep) which will be slaughtered for personal consumption, include that livestock in inventory counts. For example if a dairy operator has one pig which will be slaughtered for personal consumption, include this pig in inventory counts.
Bulls: male cattle which have not been castrated, 1 year and over, which are or will be kept for breeding purposes or for slaughter.
Calves: cattle of either sex, under 1 year old.
Calving: a term used when referring to cattle, meaning to give birth.
Cow: female cattle which have calved at least once, being used for the production of dairy or for the reproduction of beef calves. Include "first calf heifers".
Heifers: female cattle over 1 year old which have never calved, used (or to be used) for breeding or fed for slaughter.
Steers: castrated male cattle, 1 year and over, being fed for slaughter.
Boars: non-castrated male pigs, 6 months and older, used or to be used (or sold) for breeding purposes.
Bred gilts: female pigs which have never farrowed but which have been bred; they are intended for breeding purposes.
Farrowing: term used when referring to pigs, meaning "to give birth".
Feeders: market pigs that are 50 to 119 lb (23 to 53 kg) or 120 to 179 lb (54 to 81 kg).
Note: sometimes referred to as grower pigs.
Finishers: market pigs over 179 lb (81 kg) which are being fed for slaughter.
Gilts: female pigs which have never farrowed and are intended for breeding. Gilts intended for breeding may or may not be bred.
Note: gilts are younger than bred gilts.
Hog: a general term used to describe any type of pig.
Market pigs: consists of 'feeders (growers)' and 'finishers' which are over 50 lb (23 kg). The general term 'market pigs' is to differentiate from pigs for breeding.
Piglet: a general term used to describe a new born pig.
Slaughter hogs: pigs which are approximately 220 to 240 lb (100 to 110 kg) and are ready to be sold or slaughtered.
Sows: female pigs which have farrowed at least once.
Stillborn: born dead.
Suckling pigs: young pigs under 15 lb (7 kg), which have not been weaned.
Weaners, Weanling, Nursery or Starter: pigs of either sex, 15 to 49 lb (7 to 22 kg), which have recently been weaned.
Weaning: switching a young animal from mother's milk to another source of food.
Total number of farrowings: this question is asking to report the total number of farrowings in the last 6 months. If a sow farrowed two times in the last 6 months this would be reported as two farrowings.
Average number of piglets born per litter: this question is asking to report the average number of piglets born per litter during the last 6 months. Some respondents interpret this to mean how many total piglets were born during the last six months. The data we are looking for is the average number of piglets born per sow. For example: If a respondent has 100 sows and each sow has 10 piglets born per litter. The correct response would be on average 10 piglets born per litter. Include piglets born alive and stillborn.
Total piglets born: this question is asking to report the total number of piglets born in the last 6 months. Total number of farrowings in the last 6 months multiplied by average number of piglets born per litter equals the total piglets born in the last 6 months. If the respondent is not able to report the total number of farrowings or average number of piglets born, the respondent should report the total number of piglets born in the last 6 months. Include piglets born alive and stillborn.
Rams: non-castrated male sheep kept for breeding.
Ewes: female sheep kept for breeding.
Replacement lambs: replacement lambs are lambs that are being kept for breeding purposes. Include lambs born on the operation and lambs purchased from other sources. Also include lambs born and still located on the operation that will eventually be sold to other farms for breeding purposes.
Market lambs: market lambs are male or female lambs that are raised with the intent for slaughter.

If you spent money today, you have two options to record each expense:
OR
If you did NOT spend any money today...
Write the date and the words "no spending" in the "Expenses-in stores and online" section.
Thank you for completing the interview part of the survey. The only thing left to complete is your diary of daily expenses.
Why a diary?
To save time, some expenses were not covered in detail during your interview. Frequent day-to-day expenses are often forgotten or understated when collected in the interview, but overall they can represent a good portion of a household's budget. This diary will help you to report all of your household's daily expenses and will also help you track your weekly spending!
Where does all our money go?
When identifying expenses, some easily forgotten items are: coffee and meals purchased at work, at school or on the run, miscellaneous items purchased at the pharmacy, grocery store, and hardware store, and items purchased by other members of the household. Other examples of forgotten items are: tickets for the theatre, movies, and sporting events, pet food, drinks purchased in bars, purchases made in garden centres and sports stores, and on-line purchases.
To ensure nothing is forgotten, think about where you and other members of your household spend money. Do you shop in warehouse type stores, big box stores, markets or convenience stores? Does anyone in your household make purchases online? All that counts!
How to complete the diary:
Have a receipt?
This is the easiest way to keep track! Put receipts into the diary's pocket. You will not have to transcribe these expenses in the diary.
If you don't have a receipt, transcribe an expense:
Expenses-in stores and online:
Expenses-restaurants, cafeterias, bars, coffee shops, etc.:
Didn't spend anything today?
Please let us know by writing the date and "No spending" in the "Expenses-in stores and online" section.
Tips for completing the diary
Save time! Provide the receipts instead of transcribing items in the diary. Fill in the diary on a daily basis to avoid forgetting items.

Information for Government Departments
The following applies to government departments only:
New Assets: Report capital expenditures for acquisitions of new assets including the portion of work in progress for the current year. Include imports of used assets since they represent newly acquired assets for the Canadian economy.
Purchase of Used Canadian Assets: The object of our survey is to measure the acquisitions of new fixed assets separately from used fixed assets in the Canadian economy as a whole. This is because the acquisition of used assets does not increase the total inventory of fixed assets, it only transfers them within the Canadian economy. Report acquisition of used assets separately in this column.
Renovation, Retrofit, Refurbishing, Overhauling and Restoration: Report capital expenditures for existing assets being upgraded, renovated, retrofitted, refurbished, overhauled or restored.
Expected Useful Life of Assets: Report the expected life of the asset in years.
Land: Capital expenditures for land should include all costs associated with the purchase of the land that are not amortized or depreciated. Improvements of land should be reported in Non-Residential Construction.
Residential Construction: Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for residential structures (on a contracted basis and/or by your own employees).
Non-Residential Construction: Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for non-residential building and engineering construction (on a contracted basis and/or by your own employees) whether for your own use or rent to others.
Include:
Capital expenditures incurred during the reporting period for machinery and equipment, whether for your own use or for lease or rent to others.
Include:
Non-Capital Repair and Maintenance Expenditures: This question represents the repair and maintenance of assets in contrast to the acquisition of assets or the renovation of assets.
Include:
Work in Progress: Work in progress represents accumulated costs since the start of capital projects which are intended to be capitalized upon completion.
Typically capital investment includes any expenditure on an asset in which its life is greater than one year. Capital items charged to operating expenses are defined as expenditures which could have been capitalized as part of the fixed assets, but for various reasons, have been charged to current expenses.
Total: These are the amounts to be divided between contractors and company's own workers.
Value of Work Performed by Contractors: Work performed by contractors are contract billings or equivalent including holdbacks.
Value of Own Account Work: In addition to own account work, include all materials and supplies provided free to contractors and all architects, engineering and consultants fees and similar services.
Salaries and Wages: Show the total value of salaries and wages paid to your employees. Salaries and wages are gross earnings before deductions such as income tax and include incentive bonuses and vacation pay but exclude fringe benefits.
Materials and Supplies: Report total cost of materials and supplies used by your own employees and those provided free to contractors relating to the expenditures reported.
Other Charges: Examples of other charges are insurance, power, telephone and also architectural, legal, and engineering fees considered to be applicable to the expenditures reported.
Operating lease
The lessor bears the risk of ownership and retains a significant "residual" economic interest in the leased property. The lessee has the right to temporary use of the property, for a term shorter than the economic life of the property, in exchange for regular payments. At the end of the lease, the lessee has the option of purchasing the property at fair market value.
Capital or financial lease
These leases are similar in that the lessor in effect finances the "purchase" of the leased property by the lessee and retains a security interest in the leased property. The lessee retains the leased property for substantially all of its economic life. The lessee usually has the option at the end of the lease to purchase the property at a "bargain" price.
Selling price
The total value, or the sales of fixed assets which were disposed of or sold, even if traded in for credit in the acquisition or purchase of new fixed assets. When land and buildings are sold together, please report the selling price of the land separately, along with other land sales.
Gross book value
This value should represent total capital expenditures for an asset, at and since the time of original construction or purchase, including all subsequent capital expenditures for the purpose of modernization, expansion, etc. Any subsidies received should not be subtracted.
Age
Report the age of the fixed asset at the time of disposal.
If you have disposed of or sold similar assets of varying ages, report them separately or combine the data and provide a weighted average for the ages.

Legal Name
The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.
Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.
To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.
Operating Name
The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.
Current main activity of the business or organization
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.
The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.
The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational unit(s) targeted by this questionnaire only, and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.
The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.
Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.
Q1. Greenhouse products: Seedlings, potted plants, bedding plants, cuttings and other propagating material, vegetables and fruit grown for sale in a permanent, artificially heated enclosed structure made of plastic, plexiglass, poly-film or glass.
Any plants that you start cultivating in a greenhouse but are finished before sales in a nursery should be considered a nursery product.
Q1. Nursery products: A diverse range of non-edible, living plant material grown 'in field' or in containers outdoors and sold with their root system intact.
Include annual and perennial plants ranging from woody plants to bedding plants (transplants) and outdoor flowers. Plants range from seedlings to full-grown trees.
Exclude field-grown cut flowers from this category.
Q1. Field-grown cut flowers: should be reported in its own category only, not in the 'nursery products' category. Cut flowers produced in, and sold from, a greenhouse should be reported in the 'greenhouse products' category.
Q1. Christmas trees:
Include only the Christmas trees that were cut during the year.
Exclude Christmas trees that were grown in a container with their root systems intact.
Q1. Sod: Grass or turf, which has its roots intact. Sod is grown 'in field' and sold as a single product.
For this survey, we are only interested in flowers, plants, vegetables, fruit and seedlings grown in, and sold from, the greenhouse. Production of vegetables and fruits covered by cold frames or covering tunnels should not be included in the greenhouse section of the survey.
Q5. Cut flowers: Include only cut flowers produced in, and sold from, a greenhouse. Exclude field-grown cut flowers and dried cut flowers.
Q5. Fruit and Vegetables: Include products grown to completion in a greenhouse and sold from the greenhouse. Exclude greenhouse vegetables and/or fruit that are transplanted for field crops. Bedding plants (transplants) grown in a greenhouse that will be planted in your own fields so that they can be sold as fully grown harvested vegetables at a later date should be excluded; they are reported in Statistics Canada's annual Fruit and Vegetable Survey.
Q5. Potted Plants – indoor or outdoor: Any plants grown and sold in a pot from the greenhouse. Exclude Christmas trees sold in pots. Pots take many forms and sizes, such as baskets (wicker), peat pots, moss pots and plastic pots or ceramic pots.
Q5. Cuttings, tree seedlings and other propagating material: Plants (or sections of a plant) capable of developing into a greater number of plants or spreading out and affecting a greater area. Examples include Chrysanthemums, Poinsettias, Begonias, Petunias and shrubs.
Exclude: tree seedlings for reforestation
Q5. Bedding plants, transplants or plugs – ornamental or vegetable: Young plants that are bought and then transplanted into a garden, field, container or basket by the purchaser. These include ornamental bedding plants and vegetable bedding plants. For this survey, the term "ornamental" refers to flowers or plants cultivated for their beauty rather than use.
Greenhouse vegetables and fruit are edible and ready to eat at the time of sale. They were grown into sellable products in a greenhouse, not in a field; and sold from the greenhouse by the producer. Field vegetable and fruit farmers should report their production in the Fruit and Vegetable Survey.
Exclude tobacco, ginseng, asparagus, mushrooms, ornamental and vegetable bedding plants (young plants that are bought and transplanted into a garden, field, container or basket by the purchaser; also known as transplants).
A number of greenhouses are expanding to the United States. For this survey, report Canadian production only.
If you produced multiple crop of the same greenhouse vegetable or fruit in the same greenhouse space, report the area only once. For example, if 1,000 square feet were used for the first tomato crop planting and then the same space was later used for the second tomato crop planting, you would report 1,000 square feet (not 2,000 square feet).
If you produced two or more different types of vegetables or fruit in the same greenhouse space, you would count that area for each type of crop produced.
For example, if you used 2,000 square feet to grow tomatoes for your first crop planting, and then switched to growing cucumbers in that same space half-way through the summer, you would report a total area of 4,000 square feet (2,000 square feet for growing tomatoes, plus 2,000 square feet for growing cucumbers).
Q8. Sales distribution of greenhouse vegetables and fruit (total gross sales)
The sales of greenhouse vegetables and fruit that the operation produced and sold.
Please report the value of greenhouse fruit and vegetable sales in a percentage (%). The sum of different markets should be equal to 100%.
Wholesaler:
The organisation primarily engaged as the intermediary in the distribution of merchandise. Meaning that a wholesaler is a reseller of manufactured goods in whole (without transformation, and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise).
A wholesaler provides the warehousing and trade abilities the manufacturer does not want to provide. It also prefers to sell batches, truckloads, pallets, etc. of goods. Often offers discounts as quantity increases. As a result, many wholesalers are therefore organized to sell merchandise in large quantities to retailers, and business and institutional clients.
In addition, wholesalers may frequently perform one of the following related functions; breaking bulk, providing delivery services to customers, or operating warehouse facilities for storage of goods they sell, or marketing and support services such as packaging and labelling, inventory management, shipping, handling of warranty claims, in-store or co-op promotions and training.
Value of sales to other channels could include sales to co-ops in this category.
Any plant grown in a pot from the greenhouse with the intention of selling to the final consumer can be classified as a finished potted plant (including hanging potted plants, such as baskets (wicker), peat pots, moss pots and plastic pots or ceramic pots). Any plant sold in a pot before it has fully matured or is intended to be grown to maturity at another facility can be classified as a prefinished potted plant.
Include all ornamental potted plants (annuals, biennials and perennials) and all potted vegetable, fruit and herb plants that were produced and sold from your greenhouse in Canada.
Plants grown in containers outdoors should be reported in the 'nursery products' category.
Exclude anything produced outside Canada.
Exclude Christmas trees sold in pots; bedding plants or plugs sold in cell packs, flats or trays; and other nursery stock (non-edible, living plant material grown outdoors 'in field' or in containers outdoors and sold with their root system intact).
Cuttings are sections of a plant stem capable of developing into a whole plant. Examples of species that may be sold as cuttings include murrayas, grevilleas, fuchsias, and gardenias.
Exclude ornamental and vegetable bedding plants, also known as transplants, which are young plants that are bought and then transplanted into a garden, field, container or basket by the purchaser.
Tree seedlings
A tree seedling is a young tree grown from a seed in a nursery for transplanting typically at one or two years of age.
Include tree seedlings produced only inside a greenhouse. Do not report tree seedlings produced in cold frames or covering tunnels. Only ornamental tree seedlings should be reported.
Exclude tree seedlings for reforestation.
Bedding plants, also known as transplants, are young plants that are bought and then transplanted into a garden, field, container or basket by the purchaser. Ornamental bedding plants are cultivated for their flowers and beauty, rather than their use. Vegetable bedding plants are not yet edible at the time of sale from your greenhouse.
Bedding plants may be sold in various containers, including plugs, cell packs, flats or trays. Report the number of individual plants. If this number is unknown, please estimate it by multiplying the number of trays by the average number of plants per tray.
Exclude vegetable and herb plants not sold directly from the greenhouse (for example, plants being transplanted from the greenhouse to the field by the producer).
Include only cut flowers that were produced in, and sold from, a greenhouse in Canada.
Exclude cut flowers that were initially cultivated in a greenhouse but then grown into sellable products in a field; these should be reported in the 'field-grown cut flowers' section, which is its own category in this survey. Some operators may start seeds in their greenhouse but transplant the flowers in the field in May or June and cut and dry them in August.
Exclude cut flower purchases for immediate resale from other producers.
Sales distribution of greenhouse flowers and plants (total gross sales)
The sales of greenhouse flowers and plants that the operation produced and purchased for immediate resales.
Please report the value of greenhouse flowers and plants sales in a percentage (%). The sum of different markets should be equal to 100%.
Wholesaler: the organisation primarily engaged as the intermediary in the distribution of merchandise. Meaning that a wholesaler is a reseller of manufactured goods in whole (without transformation, and rendering services incidental to the sale of merchandise).
A wholesaler provides the warehousing and trade abilities the manufacturer does not want to provide. It also prefers to sell batches, truckloads, pallets, etc. of goods.

When reporting the area, include the total area used to grow Christmas trees, regardless of whether the trees were cut or not. Include naturally established or planted areas, regardless of stage of growth that are pruned or managed with the use of fertilizer or pesticides.
When reporting the number of cut trees, exclude any Christmas trees that were grown in a container with their root systems intact.

A tree seedling is a young tree grown from a seed in a nursery for transplanting typically at one or two years of age.
Include only tree seedlings produced in a nursery. Only ornamental tree seedlings should be included.
Exclude tree seedlings produced in and sold from a greenhouse. Note: that tree seedlings may be reported as a nursery products if they were conditioned outside for part of the production cycle, after having been cared for inside the greenhouse first.
Exclude tree seedlings for reforestation.
Exclude any nursery stock that was purchased for immediate resale; Christmas trees without the root system intact; any greenhouse production; unsold inventory; and value received for landscaping services.
Field-grown includes all bailed and burlapped, bare root field potted stock.
Container-grown includes all containers sizes of less than one gallon; one gallon; two gallons; and greater than two gallons.
Balled and burlapped is a method of transplanting that minimizes root disturbance. The tree is dug with a ball of soil around it and wrapped in burlap (method generally used for evergreens and deciduous plants in leaf).
Bare root describes plants dug up, with the soil shaken off (method generally used for deciduous plants in a dormant condition).
Field-potted describes stock which is grown in the field and placed into a pot when dug up for sale. Please report stock that was potted up from the field for a maximum of one full growing season; if potted up for greater more than one growing season, report under container.
Container-grown is nursery stock grown in a container for a minimum of one growing season before time of sale.
Nursery stock for immediate resale is any nursery stock you purchased from other growers to re-sell from your own operation within a short period of time with minimal maintenance e.g., watering. Please enter your total sales of the nursery stock you purchased from other operations.
Examples of stock that may be ready for immediate resale:
Plants, flowers, bulbs, trees, shrubs, etc.
The sales of nursery stocks that the operation produced and purchased for immediate resales. Please report the value of nursery stocks sales in a percentage (%). The sum of different markets should be equal to 100%.
Growing on is a term used by operators when stock is cultivated in the greenhouse or the nursery for the purpose of growing it to greater proportions. The operators will plant a seed or seedling in their greenhouse and care for it, by maintaining it (transplanting, fertilizing, etc.) until it becomes a sellable product.
Exclude any plant materials you may have purchased from other growers for immediate resale from your own operation (please report these purchases in row c).

Same species of mushrooms are known under different names. For this survey, we sometimes combine several varieties into a single category:
White Agaricus (Agaricus bisporus): white button mushroom, cultivated mushroom, table mushroom.
Brown Agaricus (Agaricus bisporus): brown button mushroom, cremini, crimini, portobello, portabella.
Shiitake (Lentinula edodes): oak mushroom.
Oyster (Pleurotus sp.): oyster, yellow oyster, pink oyster, king oyster, hiratake.
Other species of mushrooms: enoki, lion's mane, pom pom, Stropharia, Volvariella, reishi, etc.
The total growing area is the standing area used for your mushroom production, e.g., the total area of producing beds.
The number of production cycles is the number of times the substrate in your production facilities is renewed. If you normally use the duration of a cycle: 365 divided by the number of days in a production cycle = number of production cycles.
e.g., 365 / 46 days per cycle = 7.9 production cycles
The total harvested area is the combined area of all harvests for the year.
e.g., 10,000 square feet of total growing area x 3 production cycles = 30,000 square feet of total harvested area
Bags: plastic or paper bags of all sizes. The bags can be filled with different types of substrate, such as sawdust, mulch, compost, etc.
Natural wood logs: natural, whole wood logs. If you produce on sawdust or wood mulch in bags, check "bags" and not "natural wood logs".
Forest floor: production of mushrooms on direct soil on the forest floor. If your facilities are in the forest but not on direct soil, please select another more appropriate category. Exclude wild mushroom picking.
Other: any other production system, such as beds, shelves, trays, jars, bottles, etc.
