2.1. Data description

Main characteristics

2.1.1 Describe shortly the main characteristics of the statistics  

Structural orchard statistics provide data on the area, age and density of apple, pear, peach, nectarine, apricot, citrus fruit and olive orchards and vineyards producing table grapes. The statistics are collected from surveys and administrative data sources. Data are collected on national level and for some variables also at NUTS1 level. The data collection concerns countries with more than 1000 ha of area for any single fruit tree type.

2.1.2 Which of the fruit tree types are covered by the data collection?  Dessert apple trees
Dessert pear trees
Apricot trees
Other
2.1.3 If Other, please specify

Peach, nectarine, cherry, sour cherry, plum and others fruit trees and bushes


Reference period

8.2.4 Additional comments

Government Regulation No. 307/2014 Coll., on the details of registration of land use based on user relations, introduced a significant change of the definition of the orchard. The change mainly concerns the specification of a minimum density of fruit trees and bushes (100 trees or 800 bushes per hectare). This change led to reclassification of some orchards as other types of permanent crops. This fact significantly affected the comparability with the previous results.

8.3.4 If no comparisons have been made, explain why
8.3.5 Additional comments

Comparison with FSS 2016 and IACS was performed; it concerned only the total area of orchards.

The total areas of apple, pear and apricot orchards in the Structural orchard statistics 2017 were higher in comparison with their production area recorded in the ACS. The biggest difference (+23%) was recorded for pear orchards because a large proportion (16%) of pear orchards in the Structural orchard statistics was not yet in production (age class up to 4 years).

8.4. Coherence - sub annual and annual statistics

Sub annual and annual statistical outputs related to orchards are coherent.

8.5. Coherence - National Accounts

Not applicabe.

8.6. Coherence - internal

The Structural orchard statistics contains data from two different sources (Orchard Survey 2017 and Orchard Register). Data from both sources are coherent.

The Structural orchard statistics 2017 covered all fruit producers registered in the Farm Register with at least 0.20 ha of orchards producing fruits entirely or mainly for the market. A combination of an administrative data source and a survey was used. The Structural orchard statistics included 1 755 units in total. Data for 1 006 units utilising 94% of the total orchard area were taken from the Orchard Register. The Orchard Survey 2017 included the remaining 749 units which plant fruit trees on 6% of the total orchard area.
