Farm environmental management in Canada
Abstract
The series Farm Environmental Management in Canada presents key information
on agri-environmental practices used on Canadian farms. The series includes
several articles on themes such as manure storage, manure application, water
management, chemical inputs use and sustainable land management practices. These
analyses are supported by data from the 2001 Farm Environmental Management Survey
(FEMS) and supplemented with information from the 2001 Census of Agriculture.
FEMS is the only dedicated national source of information on a broad range of
farming practices that impact on the environment. The FEMS survey collects farm-level
information on manure management practices, sustainable grazing systems, crop
nutrient management, pesticides application practices, land and water management
practices (including irrigation farming practices), and whole farm environmental
management. It provides benchmark information for anyone with an interest in
agri-environmental issues.
