Where could I find historical producer prices for cranberries (besides the local producers association APCQ)? The provincial producers’ groups seem the most likely source of up to date information.
I did find a couple of CANSIM tables that include cranberry production figures, but they only go back to 2008
Answer
The Agriculture Division, Horticulture Unit explained that:
"We do not collect prices in the Horticulture Unit. All the data we have are collected in the Fall Fruit and Vegetable Survey and the data can be found in CANSIM 001-0009: <http://www5.statcan.gc.ca/cansim/a26> area, production and farm gate value of fresh and processed fruits, by province, annual, 1926 to 2013.”
I changed the date range from 1926 to 2013 and you can see that in Canada we started to produce cranberries in 1996.
