No. 2, table "Farm Cash Receipts – Agriculture Economic Statisti cs”, November 2011).  For grains and oilseeds, value of product ion is equal to production multiplied by price (source 
for production:  Statistics Cana da CANSIM Table 001-0010, November 2011;  source fo r price:  based on Sta tistics Canada Farm Ca sh Receipt prices).  The de minimis  level is 5%.

1) Value of production for most products is equal to total market  receipts (source:  Statistics Ca nada "Farm Cash Receipts, Agr iculture Economic Statistics Catalogue 21-011-X, Vol 10, 
No. 2, table "Farm Cash Receipts – Agriculture Economic Statisti cs”, November 2011).  For grains and oilseeds, value of product ion is equal to production multiplied by price (source 
for production:  Statistics Cana da CANSIM Table 001-0010, November 2011;  source fo r price:  based on Sta tistics Canada Farm Ca sh Receipt prices).  The de minimis  level is 5%.  
2) Dash indicates nil;  0.0 indicates a small amount rounded to 0.0.
