3.1. Data description | |||
The data describe the structure of agricultural holdings providing the general characteristics of farms and farmers and information on their land, livestock and labour force. They also describe production methods, rural development measures and agro-environmental aspects that look at the impact of agriculture on the environment. The data are used by public, researchers, farmers and policy-makers to better understand the state of the farming sector and the impact of agriculture on the environment. The data follow up the changes in the agricultural sector and provide a basis for decision-making in the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and other European Union policies. The statistical unit is the agricultural holding (farm). The aggregated results are disseminated through statistical tables. The data are presented at different geographical levels and over periods. |
|||
3.2. Classification system | |||
Data are arranged in tables using many classifications. Please find below information on most classifications. The classifications of variables are available in Annex III of Regulation (EU) 2018/1091 and in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1874. The farm typology means a uniform classification of the holdings based on their type of farming and their economic size. Both are determined on the basis of the standard gross margin (SGM) (until 2007) or standard output (SO) (from 2010 onward) which is calculated for each crop and animal. The farm type is determined by the relative contribution of the different productions to the total standard gross margin or the standard output of the holding. The territorial classification uses the NUTS classification to break down the regional data. The regional data is available at NUTS level 2. |
|||
3.3. Coverage - sector | |||
The statistics cover agricultural holdings undertaking agricultural activities as listed in item 3.5 below and meeting the minimum coverage requirements (thresholds) as listed in item 3.6 below. |
|||
3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions | |||
The list of core variables is set in Annex III of Regulation (EU) 2018/1091. The descriptions of the core variables as well as the lists and descriptions of the variables for the modules collected in 2019/2020 are set in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1874. The following groups of variables are collected in 2020:

These are mainly items related to hours worked in the part LAFO: WH_Hld_AWU_PC, WH_MAN_AWU_PC, FLF_D_RFAM ......, FLF_D_RNFAM ... The elimination of such errors was secured in two ways. In the first place, we embedded control algorithms to the software for recording data in order to detect the most important errors arising from relationships between workers on the farm. During the creation of the file for Eurostat, we built in further algorithms in order to help detect also other possible errors. All data errors have been corrected, but the error rate cannot be documented. |

Regulation (EU) 2018/1091 newly considers agricultural holdings with only fur animals. However even if our country raises fur animals, holdings with only fur animals are not included in our data collection because they do not meet the thresholds. The thresholds for animals are expressed in livestock units (LSU) and fur animals are not associated LSU coefficients. We did not add thresholds related to fur animals; there is no reason for it (fur animals do not contribute towards 98% of the total LSU). |

There have been sufficient changes to warrant the designation of a break in series | |||||||||||||||||||
15.2.3.2. Description of changes | |||||||||||||||||||
As regards the thresholds in FSS 2016, they were lower for UAA (1 ha) without any further conditions for ARA. Change to 5 ha in IFS2020 affected that farms with lower permanent grassland area fell out from the frame. As for vineyards, the threshold in FSS2016 was higher (0,5 ha). The change to 0,1 ha slightly affected the area but significantly increased the number of respondents. As for orchards, the threshold in FSS2016 was 0,5 ha. The change to 0,3 ha had no influence on the area neither the number of respondents. The result is more influenced by the high age of orchards. As for vegetables, the threshold in FSS2016 was lower (0,1 ha) than in IFS2020 (0,5 ha). The impact on this variable is very difficult to assess because the area on the open land is decreasing and the area in greenhouses is increasing. The threshold for greenhouses in FSS2016 was higher (0.1 ha). The change to 0.01 ha in IFS2020 does not have a big impact on the result, the area increased due to higher cultivation efficiency. |

Legal personality of the agricultural holding In IFS, there is a new class (“shared ownership”) for the legal personality of the holding compared to FSS 2016, which trigger fluctuations of holdings in the classes of sole holder holdings and group holdings.
Other livestock n.e.c. In FSS 2016, deer were included in this class, but in IFS they are classified separately. Also in FSS 2016, there was a class for the collection of equidae. That has been dropped and equidae are included in IFS in "other livestock n.e.c."
Livestock units In FSS 2016, turkeys, ducks, geese, ostriches and other poultry were considered each one in a separate class with a coefficient of 0.03 for all the classes except for ostriches (coefficient 0.035). In IFS 2020, the coefficients were adjusted accordingly, with turkeys remaining at 0.03, ostriches remaining at 0.35, ducks adjusted to 0.01, geese adjusted to 0.02 and other poultry fowls n.e.c. adjusted to 0.001.
Organic animals While in FSS only fully compliant (certified converted) animals were included, in IFS both animals under conversion and fully converted are to be included. |

15.2.8. Explanations for major trends of main variables compared to the last data transmission to Eurostat | |||||||||||||||||||
Among the sharp variations of aggregates over time, it can be pointed out: - The increase in area for cultivated mushrooms (U1000) is high but the total area is small (the increase is due to the fact, that former coal mines found their new business orientation in mushroom growing. - Other wine (W1190T) is reported in accordance with the vineyard register. - Other oilseeds (I1190T), in recent years there is a large interest in growing pumpkins solely for the purpose of pressing oil. |

As regards the items at the regional level: comparability at the regional level is affected by different methods of statistical survey and aggregating data. The data also includes data for small farms below the threshold values, which is significantly reflected in the area of K0000-kitchen gardens and C0000-cereals, which are cultivated most often of all crops. Data comparability is affected by several factors such as: - the CROPS statistic values are harvest areas and the values for IFS are sown or planted areas; The regular statistical surveys (animal production statistics) are carried out at the regional level. Farms submit data for each district in which they farm separately. |
|||||||||||||||||||
15.4. Coherence - internal | |||||||||||||||||||
The data are internally consistent. This is ensured by the application of a wide range of validation rules. |
