In EnglishSummary
The results
provided in this report are not directly comparable with results from 1998 and
earlier on Net receipts etc. for farmers. The main reason for that is that from
1999 a wider household concept is used. Between 1999 and 2000 a change in the
way of collecting the information to the Farm Register (LBR) has caused a
considerable decrease in the number of older farmers. That has led to a higher
increase between the years of about two per cent for the averages for the whole
population than it would have been if the old method for collection had been
used. For a few variables like "Pensions", "Surplus from capital" and "Net income
from capital" this has led to lower results. The impact is supposed to vary
between different subgroups. The average
household income before tax-free positive transfers and taxes was for all
agricultural households SEK 337 400 in year 2004, an increase with SEK 16 600
or 5 per cent. As the tax-free positive transfers were almost unchanged and the
negative transfers increased SEK 5 000 or 5 per cent the household income
after transfers increased less - SEK 11 200 or 5 per cent - than income
before transfers and amounted to SEK 238 000. For farmers
and spouses the income from business and employment has been calculated for
women and men since 1996. For women income from business decreased SEK 100 in
year 2004 and income from employment increased SEK 5 200 so that total
income from employment and business increased SEK 5 100 or 3 per cent to
SEK 166 200. For men the corresponding changes were increases with SEK
1 000 and 5 200 so that total income from employment and business
increased SEK 6 200 or 3 per cent to SEK 193 400. For farmers
and spouses the income from business in 2004 for women as share of income for
men was 31 per cent. This share was 39 per cent in 1996. On the other hand the
corresponding share for income from employment has increased from 95 per cent in
1996 to 105 per cent in 2004. Although women on average since year 2000 earn
more money from employment than men, their total income from business and
employment was still 14 per cent lower in 2004. Since 1996 the difference has
to some extent been reduced as the corresponding figure that year was
18 per cent. List of tables1. Household incomes after transfers 2001 - 2004. SEK per household 2. Household income after transfers 2001 - 2004. SEK per household 3.
