Canada: Statistics Canada says barley production went down

Statistics Canada announced on December 14 that in a season of record production, barley production fell. Barley production dropped 5.3% to 12.481 MMT from 2004 production, due to a decline in production in both Alberta and Manitoba, that was in turn due to lower harvested acreage and lower yields.
