Abstract
Canada is a very large country with about 3,700,000 square miles of land surface but with only 100,000,000 acres of land in production and approximately 40,000,000 acres of virgin land capable of being used for crop production. Of the 100 million acres, about 80% of this is in the three western provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta. Saskatchewan alone has over 50% of this resource. Contrasted with this is the small area in the Maritimes of less than 2 million acres, some 6 to 7 million acres in Quebec, and 11 million acres in Ontario. Canada, therefore, has one major surplus resource and that is grain production in western Canada.
