CONT

Au vingtième siècle, le Canada a été pendant plusieurs décennies le principal pays exportateur de blé. De nos jours, dans un marché international très élargi, il se classe deuxième, n'étant devancé que par les Etats-Unis. Le Canada occupe néanmoins le premier ou le deuxième rang à l'échelle mondiale dans l'exportation de plusieurs autres grains ou oléagineux, par exemple l'orge, le canola ou colza, le lin et la moutarde.
