This
report provides final data for the year 2006 for organic and non-organic farming
concerning yield per hectare and total production of cereal crops, dried
pulses, oilseed crops, table potatoes and temporary grasses. The methods used
for the crop products surveys for organic farming are the same as for the ordinary
crop products surveys. The results are presented for
counties, production areas and for all of Sweden. The production areas are
shown in Map 1. The
tables show the number of observations, yield per hectare in kg, total production
in metric tons, crop areas, the share of the organic crop area compared to the
total crop area, 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. Cereals, dried pulses and
oilseed crops
Total
production for the whole country of cereal crops from areas with subsidies for
organic farming is estimated at 175 000 tons. This is fully four per cent
of the total production of cereals. From this quantity about 118 800 tons
are also certificated and can as a result be sold as organic products. The total
production of oats from areas with subsidies for organic farming is estimated
at 52 600 tons or about eight per cent of the total production of oats.
The certified production of oats is 29 000 tons. Among the cereals, oats
is the crop that shows the highest total production from the total area with
subsidies for organic farming. Total
production of peas from areas with subsidies for organic farming is estimated
at 8 400 tons, which is about 17 per cent of the total production of peas. The 2006
harvest of rape and turnip rape from areas with subsidies for organic farming
is estimated at about 5 300 tons, which is slightly more than two per cent
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 Internet as a tool for data
delivery to Statistics Sweden. The
sample of the 2006 survey for organic farming consists of 1 808 farmers
out of about 7 700. The survey was carried out in October and November. Information
was requested for total farm production in tons of the 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 has been calculated
from data on areas with subsidies for organic farming. Crop areas cut as green
fodder have been excluded. Unharvested areas and areas cut as green fodder are
presented in separate tables. Potatoes
The total
production for table potatoes from areas with subsidies for organic farming is
estimated at 11 500 tons. This is almost two per cent of the total production
of table potatoes. The organic potato yield per hectare is half (50 per cent)
the yield compared to non-organic farms. The results
are based on a mail survey with a sample of 200 out of about 1 000 holdings
with table potatoes registered for organic farming subsidies. The
tables show the number of observations, the reduced yields per hectare in kg
and total production in metric tons. 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 subsidies for organic farming
is estimated at 968 300 tons, at 16.5 per cent moisture content. This is
almost 27 per cent of the total production. The yield per hectare is about 74
per cent for the organic farming compared to the non-organic farming. The results
are based on a mail survey. The sample size is 521 holdings. The survey
covers only temporary grasses harvested as hay, hay-silage or silage, and
includes re-growth. It does not cover temporary grazings or re-growth from
temporary grasses that is grazed. List of tables1a. Winter wheat. Harvest in 2006. Organic farming 1b. Winter wheat. Harvest in 2006. Non-organic farming 2a. Spring wheat. Harvest in 2006.
