"Some of Canada's most important agricultural land and wildlife habitat is located in British Columbia's Lower Fraser Valley. This area forms part of the nation's limited supply of prime renewable resource lands - lands with a high capability for agriculture, wildlife or forestry. The Lower Fraser Valley is also the location of Vancouver, Canada's third largest metropolitan area. While competition between urban and renewable resource activities is common in the rural fringes of Canadian cities, it is particularly acute in the Lower Fraser Valley. This technical report provides data on the conversion of rural land to urban uses in this very important region. It also discusses the impact of urbanization on high capability agricultural land and wildlife habitat"--Introd., p. [1], 2. Issued also in print format. Includes abstract in French.
