Grape Area in Production, 2001

View this map

 

Abstract

Grapes, especially the best wine grapes, need mild winters and hot summers. In Canada, these conditions are found in relatively small pockets in the most southerly regions of the country. About 80% of the grapes grown in Canada are used for wine production. Canadian producers sold about 1 billion Canadian dollars worth of wine in Canada and another 116 million Canadian dollars worth abroad in 2001 and 2002.

This map corresponds to an article published in the Statistics Canada publication Canadian Agriculture at Glance. This is a full-colour book of short analytical articles on the agriculture sector.

The data used to make this map are derived from the 2001 Census of Agriculture. For further information on this census and other important mapping information, please read the following Data and Mapping Notes.

The map and accompanying text have been published in partnership with Census of Agriculture, Statistics Canada and The Atlas of Canada, Natural Resources Canada.
