Background

The Farm Economic Survey (JEU) is an annual book-keeping survey. The aim of the survey is to illustrate the development of receipts and costs in agriculture. As a member state of the EU, Sweden is obliged to deliver data to the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN). A database containing data on 1 025 farms is delivered annually to DG Agriculture at the EU Commission.

The base of the calculations is nominal result in agriculture at current cost. The current cost for an asset is the replacement value reduced by depreciation.

In data management Statistics Sweden (SCB) cooperates with LRF Konsult and with local agents all over the country. The data is subject to intensive control processing both at the national level and at DG Agriculture.

Results

The results shown in the tables are based on Swedish typology and compare the receipts and the costs in agriculture for the years 2012 and 2013. The results presented for year 2013 are preliminary but are compared to 2012 year’s final data. The final data for 2013 will be presented on February 17, 2015.

The tables indicate that the gross margin increased for the larger crop producers (1 600-3 199 standard hours) as well as for the dairy farmers, beef cattle farmers and the pig farmers compared with the previous year.
