The Agri-Environmental Indicator Particulate Matter dataset provides an estimated net emissions of particulate matter from agricultural lands.

The Agri-Environmental Indicator Soil Organic Matter data series provides a measure of soil health and an estimate of how much carbon dioxide (CO2) has been removed from the atmosphere by plants and sequestered as soil organic carbon (SOC) in agricultural soils.

The Agri-Environmental Indicator Risk of Water Contamination by Coliforms provides two variables including the Soil Coliform Load and the Coliform Risk to Water. The Soil Coliform Load indicator is the estimated accumulation of coliforms on the soil and the Coliform Risk to Water indicator is the...

The Agri-Environmental Indicator - Agriculture Ammonia Emissions datasets provides estimated amounts of ammonia (NH3) emitted into the atmosphere through agricultural activities. Products in this data series present results for predefined areas as defined by the Soil Landscapes of Canada (SLC...

The Agri-Environmental Indicator Risk of Water Contamination by Pesticides dataset reports the annual and semi-decadal status of pesticide transport to surface water, the concentration of pesticide in ground water, and the risk of water contamination by pesticide. Products in this data series...

The Agri-Environmental Indicator Agricultural Greenhouse gas Budget datasets provide estimated net greenhouse gas emissions due to agricultural activities per hectare of Soil Landscapes of Canada agricultural areas. Products in this data series present results for predefined areas as defined by...

The Indicator of Risk of Water Contamination by nitrogen (IROWC-N) estimates the risk of water contamination by nitrogen leaching on agricultural lands in Canada from 1981 to 2016. High nitrate level ( > 10 mg N/L) in drinking water may lead to various health impacts including...

The Agri-Environmental Indicator Residual Soil Nitrogen (RSN) dataset estimates the amount of nitrogen remaining in the soil at the end of the growing season (after harvest) on Canadian agricultural lands annually.

The Agri-Environmental Indicator of Risk of Water Contamination by Phosphorus dataset estimates the relative risk of phosphorus loss from Soil Landscapes of Canada agricultural areas to surface water. The data series for this indicator consists of four (4) datasets: Annual P-Balance,...

Wildlife habitat capacity is the extent and quality of habitat that can support a diversity of species. When we convert wilderness to agricultural land we lose a great deal of wildlife habitat capacity. However, we can manage agricultural land to regain some of this capacity. Agricultural land...
