report provides final data for the year 2009 for the yield per hectare and
total production of cereal crops, dried pulses, oilseed crops, potatoes and
temporary grasses. The results are presented for
counties, production areas and for all of Sweden. The
tables show the number of observations, yield per hectare in kg, crop areas and
total production in metric tonnes. Standard errors are given for yield per hectare
and total production. Cereals, dried pulses and
oilseed crops
The total
production of cereal crops for the whole country is estimated at 5 241 900 tonnes, excluding grain maize. This
is on the same level as in 2008 but 5 % more than the average for the last five
years. The total
production of winter wheat is estimated at 2 060 100 tonnes. This is equivalent to 39 %
of the total production of cereal crops. The total
production of peas is estimated at 48 900 tonnes,
which is 68 % more than the previous year. The
total production of field beans (Vicia faba L.) is estimated at
26 100 tonnes. The 2009
harvest of rape and turnip rape is estimated at 298 500 tonnes. This is 15 % more than in 2008 and 32 % more
than the average for the last five years. The total production of oil flax is estimated
at 18 900 tonnes. Since
1998, statistics on crop yields for cereals, dried pulses and oilseed crops
have been based on an interview survey. For the first time in 2005, the farmers
can also use Internet as a tool for data delivery to Statistics Sweden. The
sample of the 2009 survey consists of 4 379 holdings. 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 has been calculated from final statistics on usage of arable
land. The figures on areas are mainly based on data from the Swedish
administrative database for agricultural subsidies, IACS. Crop areas cut as
green fodder have been excluded. Unharvested areas and areas cut as green
fodder are presented in separate tables. Potatoes
The results
are presented for table potatoes and potatoes for processing of starch. For the
whole country, the yield per hectare for table potatoes is estimated at
28 850 kg and the total production is estimated at 568 500 tonnes.
The corresponding figures for potatoes for processing of starch are 39 900
kg and 289 400 tonnes, respectively. The results
for 2009 are based on a survey with a sample of 1 113 holdings for table
potatoes and a sample of 183 holdings for potatoes for processing starch. The
areas are based on statistics from IACS. The tables
17 and 18 show the number of observations, the total and reduced yields per hectare
in kg and total production in metric tonnes. Standard errors are also
presented. Unharvested areas are shown in table 27. As for reduced yields, the
yield per hectare is reduced for small, blighted and green potatoes for table potatoes.
The reduction for potatoes for processing of starch is made only for blighted
potatoes. These reductions are made with standard values, derived from the
objective potato surveys conducted until 1998. Adjustments in the reduced
yields have also been made for unharvested areas, which have lowered the yield
per hectare. The unharvested area 2009 was estimated at 1.7 % for table potatoes and 0.5 % for potatoes for processing of starch. Since 1960,
Statistics Sweden has produced statistics for potatoes using an objective
method based on probability sampling and physical measurements with samples
taken from the fields. The method was changed 1999 to mail enquiries to a
sample of farmers. Due to the changes, all comparisons with years before 1999
should be made with great caution. Temporary grasses
The total
production of temporary grasses is estimated at 4 820 000 tonnes and
the yield per hectare at 5 420 kg per hectare, at 16.5 % moisture content. The results are presented
in tables 19-22. The results
for 2009 are based on a sample of 1 000 holdings. The survey covers only temporary
grasses harvested as hay, hay-silage or silage including re-growth. It does not
cover temporary grazings or re-growth from temporary grasses which are grazed. List of tables 1. Winter wheat. Yield per hectare, crop area and total production in 2009 2. Spring wheat.
