. A farm in Caledon There were 3,707 farms in the Greater Toronto Area according to the 2006 census While it was once the most dominant industry for residents in the Greater Toronto Area agriculture now occupies a small percentage of the population but still a large part of land in the surrounding four regional municipalities Census data from 2006 has shown there are 3,707 census farms in the GTA down 4.2% from 2001 and covering 274,363 hectares (677,970 acres). Almost every community in the GTA is currently experiencing a decrease in the acreage of farmland with Mississauga seeing the most significant the only communities in the GTA which are experiencing a growth in the acreage of farmland are Aurora Georgina Newmarket Oshawa Richmond Hill and Scugog with Markham experiencing neither any growth nor decline.

Toronto's remaining farmland is completely within Rouge Park in the Rouge Valley the average size of the farm in the GTA (74 hectares (183 acres)) is much lower than the farms in the rest of Ontario (averaging 233 acres (0.94 km2)) This has been attributed to the shift of farm types in the GTA from the traditional livestock and cash crop farms (requiring an extensive land base) towards more intensive enterprises including greenhouse floriculture nursery vegetable fruit sheep and goats The most numerous farms types in the GTA are miscellaneous specialty farms (including horse and pony sheep and lamb and other livestock specialty) followed by cattle grain and oilseed dairy and field crop farms. Although the output of dairy production has dropped with farms from within the GTA dairy has remained the most productive sector in the agricultural industry by annual gross farm receipts. Despite the decreased amount of farmland around the region farm capital value increased from $5.2 billion in 1996 to $6.1 billion in 2001 making the average farm capital value in the GTA continued to be the highest in the province Infrastructure.
