Whole farm database reference manual
Abstract
The Whole Farm Data Base (WFDB) is the product of a joint venture between Agriculture
and Agri-Food Canada and Statistics Canada. It was developed with the intention
to meet the increasing demands of users of agricultural statistics for more
disaggregated data at the whole farm level. The WFDB provides the means for
users to evaluate agricultural policies and programs as well as analyze the
viability, stability, and competitiveness of various farm businesses.
Integrating into one base the agricultural data, which are available from administrative
and survey sources, is the essence of the WFDB. It can offer users access to
a wider than ever range of disaggregated physical and financial data at the
farm level.
This reference manual will familiarize potential users of the WFDB with the
structure of the data base and the quality of the data and give a description
of the WFDB products and services that are currently available.
