Statistics Canada reports the crops index was up 9 point 3 per cent.
The agency suggests the lower Canadian dollar has given support to crops received by Canadian producers.
September's livestock and animal products index was up 1 point 4 per cent over a year ago.
Statscan says that index has been growing on a year-over-year basis since April of 2013.
Cattle and calf prices were up 13 and a half per cent.
