Marginal land utilization and potential : Kent County, New Brunswick / Maurice Mandale with Maritime Resource Management Service, Council of Maritime Premiers.: En73-4/31E-PDF

"The agricultural use of Canada's land varies greatly from region to region in its intensity, vitality and economic prospects. During the past few decades there have been major shifts in agricultural land use in Canada; a significant element has been the abandonment of large areas of land formerly in agriculture, principally in eastern Canada (McCuaig and Manning, 1982). Bibliographic research by the Lands Directorate has shown considerable concern related to the abandonment of farmland, the decline of entire regions as much of the population leaves, and the failure to adapt to new methods of using and managing the land resource in extensive rural areas of eastern Canada (Beattie, Bond and Manning, 1981)"--Preface.
