HC Deb 12 April 1921 vol 140 c951W
Sir B. STANIER

asked the Minister of Agriculture the area sown in wheat, oats, and barley in 1920 and 1921 in Canada?

Sir A. BOSCAWEN

The areas of wheat, oats and barley in Canada in the cereal year 1919–20 were 18,232,374 acres; 15,849,928 acres, and 2,551,919 acres, respectively. As the bulk of the Canadian grain crops are spring sown, complete information as regards 1920–21 is not yet available, but the area of winter-sown wheat is 792,200 acres as compared with 814,133 acres last season.
