The 4 Nations Face-Off final of agriculture

Who reigns supreme between Canada and the U.S.?

Hockey fans on both sides of the 49^th parallel are gearing up for the 4 Nations Face-Off final on Feb. 20 between Canada and the United States.

This rematch comes after the U.S. beat Canada 3-1 on Feb. 15 in a game that had three fights within the first 10 seconds of the first period.

Regardless of the competition, if these two North American neighbours are involved, the goal for one country is do to better than the other.

With that at top of mind, Farms.com compiled available data from the USDA and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada to see how Canada and the United States stack up against one another in ag categories.

Based on this data, the U.S. has the upper hand in multiple categories when it comes to their Canadian counterparts.

On average, however, Canada has larger farms.

If you want more ties between hockey and agriculture, Farms.com has you covered.

The Sutter family, for example, are one of multiple hockey families to come out of Western Canada.

The Brandon Wheat Kings are an example of hockey teams including ag in their names.

And the terms barn and apple are used to describe hockey rinks and assists, respectively.
