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. Most of the GTA's farmland is in Durham Region with 55% of their total land area being farmland This is followed by York Region with 41% of their lands being farmland Peel Region with 34% and Halton Region with 41%. 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, Lunenburgh District later "Eastern", Main articles: William Lyon Mackenzie and the Reform Movement (Upper Canada). Greater Toronto Hockey League The Greater Toronto Area is served by seven distinct telephone area codes Before 1993 the GTA used the 416 area code In a 1993 zone split Metropolitan Toronto retained the 416 code while the other municipalities of the Greater Toronto Area were assigned the new area code 905. This division by area code has become part of the local culture to the point where local media refer to something inside Toronto as "the 416" and outside of Toronto as "the 905" for example the Raptors 905 basketball team in the NBA G League is named after the area code the team represents Though for the most part the use of the area 905 as shorthand for the suburban areas outside Toronto city limits was correct it is not entirely true as some portions of Durham and York Regions use the 705 area code. Furthermore there are areas such as Hamilton the Regional Municipality of Niagara and Port Hope (in Northumberland County) that use the 905 area code but are not part of the GTA the unincorporated community of Acton (in Halton Hills) is the only community in the GTA that uses the 519 area code which covers most of Southwestern Ontario To meet the increased demand for phone numbers two overlay area codes were introduced in 2001 Area code 647 (supplementing the 416 area code) was introduced in March 2001 and area code 289 (supplementing the 905 area code) was introduced in July 2001. Some individuals within the 905 area code region may have to dial long distance to reach each other; although residents of Mississauga and Hamilton share the same area code (905) an individual from Toronto for example would have to dial "1" to reach Hamilton but not to reach Mississauga Ten-digit telephone dialling including the area code for local calls is required throughout the GTA in March 2013 two additional area codes were introduced to the GTA: area code 437 in Toronto and area code 365 in the area served by 905 and 289 Government, Bitchy the Hawk is a female Harris's hawk employed by BMO Field falconry staff to sit perched atop the field to ward off seagulls. Originally brought to work in 2007 to prevent seagulls from attacking patrons the hawk has become a fixture of BMO Field She has also been employed at Budweiser Stage in Ontario Place to the south to prevent seagulls from attacking concert-goers since the 1990s. While no official word has come from the club about her status she has been called the official mascot of the team Rivalries.
