The most productive farmland in Canada is located in Southwestern Ontario, particularly along the shore of Lake Erie. This is owing to its southern location (lots of sun), reliability of rainfall and inexhaustible water supply (the Great Lakes), and rich soil (glaciers and the Great Lakes system deposited topsoil scrapped off the Canadian Shield to the north).
Re: the previous answer, while there's a great deal of farmland in Western Canada, it's actually exceedingly poor in quality, in all respects (climate, fertility, etc). E.g. the average price per acre of farmland in Ontario is on the order of 10x more than that in the Prairies, and the best Southwestern Ontario farmland easily fetches 20x as much per acre.
[Does the author mean Eastern Ontario, or Lake Superior? He says "Southwestern Ontario", but Lake Erie is in the Southeast of Ontario...]
