Types of farming in Canada : a co-operative study by the Economics Division Marketing Service and the Census Division, Dominion Bureau of Statistics / by S.C. Hudson ... [et al.].: A12-8/157-1949E-PDF

"The term, type of farming, is used in this study in the commonly accepted manner to indicate the kind of farming followed on a group of farms having a high degree of uniformity. In a type-of-farming area a relatively small variation is found in the kinds of crops, the proportion of cropland devoted to each crop, the numbers, kinds and relation of livestock to improved land and in the usual methods of farm practice and conducting of the farm business. It should be pointed out that the type-of-farming areas outlined in this study portray the farm situation as it existed in Canada according to the 1941 census."--Foreword, p. 3.
