Part 2 - Particulars of the farming unit

Note

The data is collected on a farming unit basis. A farming unit consists of one or more farms, holdings or pieces of land, whether adjacent or not, operated as a single unit and situated within the same province.

A farming unit means any unit on which one or more of the following farming operations are carried out for commercial purposes:

- The cultivation, in the open air or under cover, of field crops, fruit, grapes, nuts, seed, bulbs, vegetables, plants or flowers.

- The operation of a tea, coffee, sugar, forestry, wood or other plantation. - The breeding of livestock, poultry, game or other animals, including freshwater fish, furred animals, and

trade in livestock. - The production of milk, wool, fur, eggs or honey.

In the case of specific types of farming where a degree of processing of the agricultural product takes place on the farming unit, these activities should be included, for example the slaughter of poultry and the drying of tea leaves and fruit (raisins, guavas, etc.).

Where two or more persons conduct the farming operations as a unit in a partnership, or as a company, close corporation or other type of ownership, these operations should, for the purpose of this census, be regarded as a single farming unit.

If separate records exist, particulars of other operations conducted in addition to the farming operations as part of the farming unit, such as a holiday resort or retreat, or a factory or a mine, should be included in Part 6 - Other income.

Composition and area of the farming unit as at 28 February 2007
