report provides final data for the year 2016 for organic and non-organic
farming on yield per hectare and total production of cereals, dried pulses, oilseed
crops, annual plants harvested green, table potatoes and temporary grasses. The
methods used for the crop production surveys for organic farming are the same
as for the ordinary crop production surveys. The
results are presented for counties, production areas and for the whole of
Sweden. The production areas are shown in Map 1. The
tables show the number of observations, yield per hectare in kilogrammes (kg),
total production in metric tonnes, crop areas, the share of the organic crop
area compared to the total crop area, and the quota of the yield from organic
farming and the yield from non-organic farming. Standard errors are given for
yield per hectare and total production, unharvested areas and areas harvested
as green fodder. Cereals, dried pulses and
oilseed crops
The total
production of cereal crops for the whole country from areas with organic
farming is estimated at 335 100
tonnes. This is about 6%
of the total production of cereals. The total
production of oats from areas with organic farming is estimated at 104 500 tonnes or almost 14% of the total production of oats. For winter wheat
the corresponding estimates are 91 600 tonnes
and 4%. Among the cereals, oats is the crop with the highest total production
from the area with organic farming. The total
production of peas and field beans from areas with organic farming are
estimated at 8 900 tonnes and 32 100 tonnes respectively. For peas,
this production corresponds to almost 10% of the total production of peas and
for field beans, the organic share of the total production is 31%. The 2016
harvest of rape and turnip rape from areas with organic farming is estimated at
12 700 tonnes, which is almost 5% of the
total production of rape and turnip rape. Statistics
on crop yields for cereals, dried pulses and oilseed crops have been based on
an interview survey. The farmers can also use the Internet as a tool for data
delivery to Statistics Sweden. The
sample of the 2016 survey for organic farming consists of 1 870 farmers.
The survey was carried out in October and November. Information was requested
for total farm production in tonnes of these crops and their average moisture
content. Yields per hectare at the farm level are calculated by dividing the
production by the crop area of the farm. Unharvested crop areas are included
and will lower the yield per hectare. Crop area statistics have been calculated
from data on areas with subsidies for organic farming and also areas that
follow EU regulations for organic production, and is controlled by an approved
inspection. Crop areas cut as green fodder have been excluded when it comes to
areas for the production of grain. Unharvested areas and areas cut as green
fodder are presented in separate tables. Potatoes
Total production
of table potatoes from areas with organic farming is estimated at 35 900
tonnes. This is 7% of the total production of table potatoes. The organic
potato yield per hectare is 64% of the yield compared with non-organic farms. The potato results
are based on a survey with a sample of 163 holdings. The
tables show the number of observations, the reduced yields per hectare in kg
and total production in metric tonnes. Standard errors are also presented.
Unharvested areas are shown in a separate table. As for reduced yields, the
yield per hectare is reduced for small, blighted and green potatoes. These
reductions are made with standard values. Adjustments in the reduced yields
have also been made for unharvested areas, which have lowered the yield per hectare. Temporary grasses
The total
production of temporary grasses from areas with organic farming is estimated at
956 500 tonnes, at 16.5% moisture content. This is about 20% of the total production. The yield per hectare
is 85% for the organic farming compared with the non-organic farming. The
results are based on a survey with a sample size of 500 holdings. The survey
covers only temporary grasses harvested as hay, hay-silage or silage, and
includes regrowth. It does not cover temporary grazings or regrowth from
temporary grasses that are grazed. List of tables
