COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/220

of 3 February 2015

laying down rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 setting up a network for the collection of accountancy data on the incomes and business operation of agricultural holdings in the European Union







THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 of 30 November 2009 setting up a network for the collection of accountancy data on the incomes and business operation of agricultural holdings in the European Union ( 1 ), and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 5(1), Article 5a(2) and (4), Articles 5b(7) and 7(2), the third subparagraph of Article 8(3) and Article 19(3) thereof, Whereas: (1) Following the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty, Regulation (EU) No 1318/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 2 ) has amended Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 to align it to Articles 290 and 291 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. In order to ensure the functioning of the new legal framework resulting from that alignment, certain rules should be adopted by means of delegated and implementing acts. The new rules should replace the existing rules established by the Commission to implement Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009. It is therefore appropriate to repeal Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 283/2012 ( 3 ) and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 730/2013 ( 4 ). (2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009, it is necessary to lay down thresholds of economic size. Such thresholds need to vary according to Member State and in some cases even to the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) division in order to take account of their different farming structures. (3) Article 5a of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 provides that data are to be collected on the basis of a plan for the selection of returning holdings (selection plan). For the purposes of the selection plan, the field of survey should be stratified according to the FADN divisions listed in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 and according to types of farming and economic sizes. (4) In order to provide a representative sample of returning holdings for the stratified field of survey, the number of returning holdings per Member State and per FADN division should be set. (5) The selection plan should be drawn up prior to the beginning of the corresponding accounting year in order to enable the Commission to verify its content before it will be used for the selection of returning holdings. (6) In order to achieve the objectives set out in Article 5b of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 which apply for the purposes of FADN, implementing rules for the Union typology should be established. (7) The type of farming and the economic size of the holding should be determined on the basis of an economic criterion. It is appropriate to use the standard output referred to in Article 5b(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 for that purpose. These standard outputs need to be established by product and in line with the list of characteristics of the farm structure surveys set out in Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 1166/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 5 ). In this respect, a correspondence between the characteristics of the structure surveys and the headings of the farm return of the FADN needs to be established. (8) Given the increasing importance in terms of income of gainful activities directly related to the holding other than the agricultural activities of the holding, a classification variable reflecting the importance of such other gainful activities directly related to the holding should be included in the Union typology. (9) It is further necessary to lay down certain rules for the transmission to the Commission of the standard outputs and the data needed for their calculation. (10) Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1198/2014 ( 6 ) determines the main groups of accountancy data referred to in Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 and lays down general rules for the collection of such data. The type, definition and presentation of the accountancy data collected by means of the farm return drawn up for the purpose of reliably determining the incomes of agricultural holdings must be uniform, irrespective of the returning holdings surveyed. It is therefore necessary to lay down the form and layout of the farm return and the methods and deadlines for data submission to the Commission. The data collected by means of the farm return should also take account of the 2013 reform of the common agricultural policy. (11) Duly completed farm returns should be sent to the Commission in time by the liaison agency appointed by each Member State in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 in order to ensure the uniform and timely management of the delivered accountancy data. The delivery process of the accountancy data to the Commission should be made practical and secure. Therefore, provision should be made for the liaison agency to send the information concerned directly to the Commission via the computerised system set up by the Commission for the purposes of that Regulation as well as for further modalities in that regard. It is appropriate that the time limits for the submission of such data to the Commission take into account Member States' past record in delivering such data. (12) Every farm return delivered to the Commission should be duly completed in order to be considered as eligible for payment of the standard fee. (13) Limitation per Member State as to the total number of duly completed farm returns eligible for Union financing is laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009. Flexibility in the number of returning holdings per FADN division should be allowed, as long as the total number of the returning holdings of the Member State concerned is respected as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009. (14) Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 provides that appropriations to be included in the general budget of the European Union, in the Commission section, have to cover the total amount of the standard fee payable to the Member States for the delivery of duly completed farm returns delivered to the Commission within the applicable deadline. The number of duly completed farm returns for which the standard fee is paid should not exceed the maximum number of returning holdings. (15) To contribute to the improvement of farm return data management processes an increased standard fee should be paid to Member States delivering duly completed farm returns earlier than the deadline to be fixed for the submission of farm returns. (16) As the measures provided for in this Regulation should apply from the accounting year 2015, this Regulation should apply from that accounting year. (17) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the Farm Accountancy Data Network, Whereas: HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

CHAPTER 4

STANDARD FEE

Article 11

Duly completed farm returns

For the purposes of Article 19(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 a farm return is duly completed when its content is factually accurate and the accountancy data contained therein are recorded and presented in accordance with the form and layout set out in Annex VIII to this Regulation.

Article 12

Eligible number of farm returns

The total number of duly completed and submitted farm returns per Member State as referred to in Article 5a(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 that are eligible for the payment of the standard fee shall not exceed the total number of returning holdings laid down for that Member State in Annex II to this Regulation.

Where Member States have more than one FADN division, the number of duly completed and submitted farm returns per FADN division that are eligible for payment of the standard fee may be up to 20 % higher than the number laid down for the FADN division concerned, provided that the total number of duly completed and submitted farm returns of the Member State concerned shall not be higher than the total number laid down for that Member State in Annex II to this Regulation.

Article 13

Payment of the standard fee

The total amount of the standard fee referred to in Article 19(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 shall be paid in two instalments:

(a) a payment corresponding to 50 % of the total amount calculated on the basis of the amount fixed in the first paragraph of Article 14 of this Regulation shall be made at the beginning of each accounting year for the number of returning holdings laid down in Annex II to this Regulation;

(b) the remaining amount shall be paid after the submitted farm returns have been verified by the Commission as being duly completed.

The remaining amount referred to in point (b) of the first paragraph of this Article shall be calculated by multiplying the standard fee per farm return calculated on the basis of Article 14 of this Regulation by the number of duly completed farm returns that are eligible pursuant to Article 12 of this Regulation and by subtracting the payment referred to in point (a) of the first paragraph of this Article.

Article 14

Amount of the standard fee

The standard fee referred to in Article 19(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 shall be fixed at EUR 160 per farm return.

If the 80 % threshold referred to in Article 19(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 is not met neither at the level of a FADN division nor at the level of the Member State concerned, the reduction referred to in that provision shall be applied only at national level.

If the Member State submits the accountancy data referred to in Article 9 of this Regulation not later than one month before the relevant deadlines referred to in Article 10(3), the standard fee is increased by EUR 5 unless the 80 % threshold referred to in Article 19(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1217/2009 in respect of a FADN division or a Member State has not been met.

ANNEX V

ECONOMIC SIZE OF HOLDINGS AND ECONOMIC SIZE CLASSES (ARTICLE 5)

A. ECONOMIC SIZE OF THE HOLDING

The economic size of a holding is measured as the total standard output of the holding expressed in EUR.

B. ECONOMIC SIZE CLASSES OF HOLDINGS

Holdings are classified by size classes, the limits of which are set out below.







Classes Limits in EUR I less than 2 000 II from 2 000 to less than 4 000 III from 4 000 to less than 8 000 IV from 8 000 to less than 15 000 V from 15 000 to less than 25 000 VI from 25 000 to less than 50 000 VII from 50 000 to less than 100 000 VIII from 100 000 to less than 250 000 IX from 250 000 to less than 500 000 X from 500 000 to less than 750 000 XI from 750 000 to less than 1 000 000 XII from 1 000 000 to less than 1 500 000 XIII from 1 500 000 to less than 3 000 000 XIV from 3 000 000

ANNEX VI

STANDARD OUTPUTS (SOs)(ARTICLE 6)

1. DEFINITION AND PRINCIPLES FOR CALCULATION OF SOs

(a) The standard output (SO) means the value of the output of each agricultural characteristic referred to in Article 6(1) corresponding to the average situation in a given region.

(b) The value of the output mentioned in point (a) means the monetary value of gross agricultural production at farm-gate price. It is the sum of the value of the principal product(s) and of the secondary product(s). The values are calculated by multiplying production per unit by the farm-gate price. VAT, taxes on products and direct payments are not included.

(c) Production period The SOs correspond to a production period of 12 months (calendar year or agricultural production year). For crop products and livestock products for which the period of production is less than or exceeds 12 months, a SO corresponding to growth or production in a 12-month period is calculated.

(d) Basic data and reference period The SOs are determined on the basis of the production per unit and the farm-gate price referred to in point (b) above. To this end, the basic data are collected in the Member States for a reference period defined in Article 4 of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1198/2014.

(e) Units (1) Physical units: (a) The SOs for crop characteristics are determined on the basis of area expressed in hectares. For mushrooms, however, the SOs are determined on the basis of gross output for all the annual successive harvests and are expressed per 100 m2 of area under crops. For their use in the context of the FADN, such SOs for mushrooms are divided by the number of annual successive harvests which is to be communicated to the Commission pursuant to Article 8 of this Regulation. (b) The SOs relating to livestock characteristics are determined by head, except for poultry, for which they are determined in terms of 100 head, and for bees, for which they are determined by hive. (2) Monetary units and rounding: The basic data for determining the SOs and the calculated SOs are established in EUR. For the Member States not taking part in the Economic and Monetary Union, the SOs are converted into EUR using the average exchange rates for the reference period as defined in point 1(d) of this Annex. These average exchange rates are calculated based on the official exchange rates published by the Commission (Eurostat). The SOs may be rounded to the nearest EUR 5 where appropriate.

2. BREAKDOWN OF SOs

(a) By crop and livestock characteristics

The SOs are determined for all the agricultural characteristics corresponding to the headings of the FSS in the manner laid down in those surveys.

(b) Geographical breakdown

— The SOs are determined at least on the basis of geographical units which are usable for the FSS and for the FADN. These geographical units are all based on the general Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) as defined in Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 8 ). These units are described as a regrouping of NUTS 3 regions. Less favoured or mountain areas are not considered as a geographical unit.

— No SO is determined for characteristics which are not relevant in the region concerned.

3. COLLECTION OF DATA FOR DETERMINING SOs

(a) The basic data for determining SOs are renewed at least each time a FSS is carried out in the form of a census as referred to in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 1166/2008.

(b) When the FSS may be carried out as sample survey as referred to in Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 1166/2008, the updating of the SOs shall be carried out: — either by renewing the basic data in a manner similar to that specified under (a), — or by applying a coefficient of change whereby SOs are updated to take account of changes, as estimated by the Member State, in quantities produced per unit and in prices with respect to each characteristic and region, that have occurred since the last reference period, as referred to in Article 4 of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1198/2014.

4. EXECUTION

The Member States are responsible, in accordance with the provisions of this Annex, for collecting the basic data needed for calculating the SOs and for calculating them, for converting them into EUR and for collecting the data required for applying the updating method, if appropriate.

5. TREATMENT OF SPECIAL CASES

The following special rules are laid down for the calculation of SOs for certain types of characteristics and for calculating the total SO of the holding:

(a) Fallow land

SO relating to fallow land is taken into account when calculating the total SO of the holding only when there are other positive SOs on that holding.

(b) Kitchen gardens

Since the produce of kitchen gardens is normally intended for the holder's own consumption and not for sale, the SOs are regarded as equal to zero.

(c) Livestock

For livestock the characteristics are split by category of age. The output corresponds to the value of growth of the animal during the time spent in the category. In other words, it corresponds to the difference between the value of the animal when it is leaving the category and its value when it is entering the category (named also the replacement value).

(d) Bovine animals under one year old, male and female

SOs relating to bovine animals under one year old are taken into account when calculating the total SO of the holding only when there are more bovine animals under one year than cows on the holding. Only the SOs relating to the surplus number of bovine animals under one year are taken into account.

(e) Other sheep and other goats

SOs relating to other sheep are taken into account when calculating the total SO of the holding only when there are no breeding sheep females on the holding.

SOs relating to other goats are taken into account when calculating the total SO of the holding only when there are no breeding goat females on the holding.

(f) Piglets

SOs relating to piglets are taken into account when calculating the total SO of the holding only when there are no breeding sows on the holding.

(g) Forage

If there are no grazing livestock (i.e. equidae, cattle, sheep or goats) on the holding, the forage (i.e. roots and brassicas, plants harvested green, pasture and meadows) is considered as intended for sale and is part of the general cropping output.

If there are grazing livestock on the farm, the forage is considered as intended to feed the grazing livestock and is part of the grazing livestock and forage output.









ANNEX VII

OTHER GAINFUL ACTIVITIES DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE HOLDING (ARTICLE 7)

A. DEFINITION OF THE OTHER GAINFUL ACTIVITIES (OGA) DIRECTLY RELATED THE HOLDING

The gainful activities directly related to the holding other than the agri- cultural activities of the holding comprise all activities other than farm work, directly related to the holding and having an economic impact on the holding. Those are activities where either the resources of the holding (area, buildings, machinery, agricultural products, etc.) or the products of the holdings are used.

Gainful activities in this context mean active work; pure financial investments are therefore excluded. Renting out the land or other agricultural resources of the farm for diverse activities without being further involved in these activities is not considered as an OGA but as part of the agricultural activity of the holding.

All processing of farm products is considered as OGA unless the processing is regarded as a part of an agricultural activity. Wine processing and olive oil production are therefore excluded unless the bought-in proportion of wine or olive oil is significant.

All processing of a primary agricultural product to a processed secondary product on the holding, regardless of whether the raw material is produced on the holding or bought from outside are considered as OGA. This includes processing meat, making cheese, etc.

B. ESTIMATION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF THE OTHER GAINFUL ACTIVITIES DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE HOLDING

The share of the OGA directly related to the holding in the output of the holding is estimated as the share of the OGA directly related to the holding turnover in the sum of total turnover of the holding and direct payments of that holding under Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 ( 9 ):

C. CLASSES REFLECTING THE IMPORTANCE OF THE OGA DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE HOLDING

Holdings are classified by classes reflecting the share of OGA directly related to the holding in the output of the holding. The following limits shall apply:







Classes Percentage bands I From 0 % to 10 % (marginal share) II From more than 10 % to 50 % (medium share) III From more than 50 % to less than a 100 % (significant share)









ANNEX VIII

FORM AND LAYOUT OF THE FARM RETURN (ARTICLE 9)

The data to be collected is classified by table and broken down into groups, categories and columns. The convention used to refer to a specific data field is:

<table letter>_<group>_<category>[_<category>]_<column>_

Specific data values are captured at the column level. In the tables as set out below, clear cells are where data values can be accepted; greyed cells marked with a ‘—’ have no meaning in the group context, so no data is accepted in those.

Examples:

— B.UT.20.A (column A of the group UT, category 20, from table B) represents the ‘Area’ of ‘Rented UAA’ to be recorded under the ‘UAA for tenant farming’ in table B.

— I.A.10110.1.0.TA (column TA of the group A, category 10110, from table I) represents the total area of ‘Common wheat and spelt’ for type of crop 1 ‘Field scale crops — main crop, combined crop’ and missing data code 0 ‘No data missing’.

When a value is not relevant or missing for any particular holding, do not enter value ‘0’.

Tables are represented by one letter, groups by one or more letters, categories by numeric codes and columns by one or more letters.

For tables A to M, the first table shows the high level matrix for groups and columns. The second table shows how this breaks down for categories where each category is represented by one or more codes and sub-codes.

The data in a farm return should be given with the following degrees of accuracy:

— financial values : values in EUR or in national monetary units without decimal. However, for national currencies where the unit represents a low relative value compared to the EUR, it may be agreed between the liaison agency of the Member State in question and the staff of the Commission which manages the FADN, to express the values in hundreds or thousands of national currency units,

— physical quantities : in quintals (1 q = 100 kg) except in the case of eggs, which will be expressed in thousands and wine and related products which will be expressed in hectolitres,

▼M1

— areas : in ares (1 a = 100 m2), except in the case of mushrooms which will be expressed in square metres of total cropped area and except in Table M ‘Subsidies’, where basic units are to be registered in ha,

▼B

— average livestock numbers : to two decimal places, except for poultry and rabbits, which are to be given in whole numbers, and bees which are to be given in number of occupied hives,

— labour units : to two decimal places.

For each table category and column value, further definitions and instructions are set out after the table concerned.

A.ID. Identification of the holding

A number is assigned to each returning holding when it is selected for the first time. The holding retains this number permanently for the duration of its inclusion in the accountancy network. A number once assigned is never allotted to another holding.

However, where the holding undergoes a fundamental change, and in particular where this change is the result of a subdivision into two separate holdings or of a merger with another holding, it may be considered as a new holding. In this case a new number is to be assigned to it. A change in the type of farming practised on the holding does not call for a new number. Where confusion with any other returning holding might result from the holding keeping the number it has (e.g. when new regional subdivisions are created), the number should be changed. A table showing the equivalence of old and new numbers is then to be forwarded to the Commission.

The holding number comprises three groups of indications as follows:

A.ID.10.R. FADN Division: a code number is to be given, corresponding to the code set in Annex II to this Regulation.

A.ID.10.S. Subdivision: a code number is to be given. The subdivisions chosen should be based on the common system of classification of the regions, referred to as the nomenclature of territorial statistical units (NUTS) established by Eurostat in cooperation with the national institutes for statistics. In any case, the Member State concerned will transmit to the Commission a table indicating, for each subdivision code used, the corresponding NUTS regions, as well as the corresponding region for which specific values of standard output are calculated.

A.ID.10.H. Serial number of the holding.

A.LO. Location of the holding

The location of the holding is given with two indications: the geo-reference (latitude and longitude) and the code of the NUTS level 3 territorial units.

A.LO.20. Latitude: degrees and minutes (within an arc of 5 minutes), columns DG and MI.

A.LO.30. Longitude: degrees and minutes (within an arc of 5 minutes), columns DG and MI.

A.LO.40.N. The NUTS3 code means the code of the NUTS level 3 territorial unit where the holding is located. The latest version of the code as described in Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 should be given.

A.AI. Accounting information

A.AI.50.AO. Number of the accounting office: a code number is to be given. In each Member State, each accounting office should be given a unique number. The number of the accounting office which has dealt with the holding for this accounting year should be given.

A.AI.60.C. Type of accounting: an indication is to be given on the type of accounting that the farm keeps. The following code numbers are to be used: 1. Double-entry accounting 2. Single-entry accounting. 3. None.

A.AI.70.DT. Date of closure of accounts: to be recorded in format ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, for example 2009-06-30 or 2009-12-31.

A.TY. Typology

A.TY.80.W. National weight of the farm: the value of the extrapolating factor calculated by the Member State should be given. Values must be expressed with two decimals.

A.TY.90.TF. Type of farming at the time of selection: holding type of farming code in accordance with Annex IV to this Regulation at the time of selection for the accounting year in question.

A.TY.90.ES. Economic size at the time of selection: economic size class code of holding in accordance with Annex V to this Regulation at the time of selection for accounting year in question.

A.CL. Classes

A.CL.100.C. Other gainful activities directly related to the holding: to be provided as a percentage band indicating the share of turnover ( 10 ) coming from the other gainful activities directly related to the holding in the total farm turnover. The following code numbers are to be used: 1. ≥ 0 to ≤ 10 % (marginal share) 2. > 10 % to ≤ 50 % (medium share) 3. > 50 % to < 100 % (significant share)

A.CL.110.C. Type of ownership/economic objective: an indication of what are the ownership and economic objectives of the holding should be given. The following code numbers should be used: 1. family farm : the holding uses the labour and capital of the holder/manager and his/her family and they are the beneficiaries of the economic activity; 2. Partnership : the production factors for the holding are provided by several partners, at least some of whom participate in the work of the farm as unpaid labour. The benefits go to the partnership; 3. company with profit objective : the benefits are used to remunerate shareholders with dividends/profits. The holding is owned by the company; 4. company with non-profit objective : the benefits are used primarily to maintain employment or similar social objective. The holding is owned by the company.

A.CL.120.C. Legal status: an indication should be given whether the holding is a legal person or not. The following code numbers are to be used: 0. False. 1. True.

Code (*) Description of categories Group A 10 UAA for owner farming UO 20 Rented UAA UT 30 Sharecropped UAA US

Land of holdings held in common by two or more partners should be recorded as owner-occupied, rented or sharecropped according to the arrangement in force between the partners.

Utilised agricultural area (UAA) is the total area taken up by arable land, permanent grassland, permanent crops and kitchen gardens used by the holding regardless of the type of tenure. Common land used by the holding is not included.

The following groups of information and categories should be used:

B.UO. UAA for owner farming

B.UO.10.A UAA (arable land, permanent grassland, permanent crops and kitchen gardens) of which the farmer is the owner, tenant for life or leaseholder and/or UAA held on similar terms. This category includes land leased to others ready for sowing (crop code 11300 ).

B.UT. UAA for tenant farming

▼M1

B.UT.20.A UAA (arable land, permanent grassland, permanent crops and kitchen gardens) worked by a person other than the owner, tenant for life or leaseholder, holding a tenancy on the said area (the rent is payable in cash and/or in kind; being generally fixed in advance, it does not normally vary with the farming results) and/or UAA farmed on similar terms of tenure.

▼B

Rented area does not include land the harvest of which is bought as a standing crop. The sums paid for the purchase of standing crops should be given in table H under codes 2020 to 2040 (purchased feedstuffs) in the case of grassland or fodder crops and under code 3090 (other specific crop costs) in the case of marketable crops (products which are usually marketed). Marketable crops bought standing should be given without specifying the area in question (table H).

Land rented for less than one year on an occasional basis and the production thereof is treated in a similar way as land the harvest of which is bought as a standing crop.

B.US. UAA for sharecropping or other modes

B.US.30.A UAA (arable land, grassland and permanent pasture, permanent crops and kitchen gardens) farmed jointly by the grantor and the sharecropper on the basis of a sharecropping agreement and/or utilised agricultural area farmed on similar terms.

The term ‘labour’ includes all persons who have been engaged on work on the farm during the accounting year. However, this does not include persons who have done this work on behalf of another person or undertaking (agricultural contract work, of which the costs appear in table H under code 1020 ).

In the case of mutual assistance between holdings, where this assistance consists of an exchange of work, the assistance received being equivalent in principle to the assistance given, the time worked by the farm labour and any related wages are specified in the farm return.

Sometimes assistance received is offset by assistance of another kind (e.g. aid received in the form of work is offset by the supply of machinery). When the exchange of services is on a limited scale, nothing is indicated in the farm return (in the above example, the aid received is not shown under labour; machinery costs, however, include the costs of making the equipment available). In exceptional cases, when the exchange of services is on a large scale, the procedure is one of the following:

(a) assistance received in the form of work is offset by a service of another kind (e.g. the supply of machinery): working time received is recorded as paid farm work (groups PR or PC depending on whether the labour is employed on the farm on a regular basis or otherwise); the value of the assistance given is recorded both as production under the corresponding category in other tables (in this example, table L category 2010 ‘Contractual work’) and as a cost (table H category 1010 ‘Wages and social security’);

(b) assistance given in the form of work is offset by a service of another kind (e.g. the supply of machinery): in this situation the working time provided and any related wages are left out of consideration; the value of the service received is recorded as an input under the corresponding group in another table (in this example, table H group 1020 ‘Contract work and machinery hire’).

The following groups of information and categories of labour are to be distinguished:

C.UR. Unpaid regular labour

Unpaid labour or labour which receives less remuneration (in cash or in kind) than the amount normally paid for the services rendered (such payment should not appear in farm costs) and which during the accounting year participated (outside normal holidays) for at least a whole day of each week.

A person employed regularly but who, for special reasons, has been engaged on the farm only for a limited period in the accounting year is nevertheless entered (for the number of hours actually worked) as regular labour.

The following cases or similar ones may arise:

(a) special production conditions on the farm for which labour is not required throughout the year: e.g. olive or vine holdings, and farms specialising in the seasonal fattening of animals or in the production of fruit and vegetables in the open;

(b) absence from work other than for normal holidays, e.g. military service, illness, accident, maternity, extended leave, etc.;

(c) joining or leaving the holding;

(d) total cessation of work on the holding due to accidental causes (flood, fire, etc.).

There are the following categories:

C.UR.10. Holder/manager

Person who assumes economic and legal responsibility for the holding and undertakes its day-to-day management. In the case of sharecropping, the sharecropper is indicated as holder/manager.

C.UR.20. Holder/not manager

Person who assumes economic and legal responsibility for the holding without undertaking its day-to-day management.

C.UR.30 Manager/not holder

Person who undertakes day-to-day management of the holding without assumption of economic and legal responsibility for it.

C.UR.40. Spouse(s) of holder(s)

C.UR.50. Other unpaid regular labour

Regular unpaid labour not included in the preceding categories includes also foreman and sub-managers not responsible for management of the whole farm.

C.UC. Unpaid casual labour

C.UC.60. Unpaid labour which has not worked regularly on the holding during the accounting year is aggregated under this category.

C.PR. Paid regular labour

Labour paid (in cash and/or in kind) on the normal scale for services rendered and which during the accounting year (excluding normal holidays) worked for at least one whole day per week for the holding.

The following categories are to be shown:

C.PR.70. Farm manager

Salaried person responsible for the day-to-day management of the holding.

C.PR.50. Others

All regular paid labour (except for the holding's salaried manager) is aggregated under this group. Includes also foreman and sub-managers not responsible for management of the whole farm.

C.PC. Paid casual labour

C.PC.60. Paid labour which did not regularly work on the holding during the accounting year (including piece workers) is aggregated under this category.

COLUMNS IN TABLE C

Number of persons (column P)

Where there are several holders, there may be more than one spouse. The number of spouses and the number of persons should be indicated in the categories where they can appear (categories 40 and 50 from the groups ‘unpaid regular labour’ UR or ‘paid regular labour’ PR).

Gender (column G)

The gender should be given only for the holder(s) and/or manager(s), in the categories where they can appear (categories 10 to 30 and 70 from groups ‘regular unpaid labour’ UR or ‘regular paid labour’ PR). The gender is indicated by a code number, i.e.:

1. male;

2. female.

Year of birth (column B)

The year of birth should be given only for the holder(s) and/or manager(s) (categories 10 to 30 and 70 from groups ‘regular unpaid labour’ UR or ‘regular paid labour’ PR) using the four figures of the year of birth.

Agricultural training of the manager (column T)

The agricultural training should be given only for the manager(s) (categories 10, 30 and 70 from groups ‘unpaid regular labour’ UR or ‘paid regular labour’ PR). The agricultural training is indicated by a code number, i.e.:

1. only practical agricultural experience;

2. basic agricultural training;

3. full agricultural training.

Annual time worked (column Y1)

Time worked should be indicated in hours for all groups and categories. It should refer to the time actually devoted to the work of the holding. In the case of less able workers the time worked should be reduced in proportion to their capacities. The time worked by piecework labour is estimated by dividing the total amount paid for the work by the hourly wage of a worker employed on a time basis.

Total work force: number of annual units (column W1)

Regularly employed work force is converted into annual work units. The number of annual work unit is not recorded for casual labour (both unpaid casual UC and paid casual PC labour). One annual work unit is equivalent to one person working full-time on the holding. One person cannot exceed one work unit equivalent, even if his actual working time exceeds the norm for the region and type of holding. A person who does not work the whole year on the holding represents a fraction of an ‘annual unit’. The ‘annual work unit’ of each such person is obtained by dividing his actual annual working time by the normal annual working time of a full-time worker in the region under consideration and on the same type of holding.

In the case of less able workers the annual work unit equivalent should be reduced in proportion to their capacities.

Share of work for OGA in % of annual time worked (column Y2)

The share of work for OGA in terms of time worked is compulsory only for the casual labour (for both unpaid and paid casual labour). It is optional for the spouse(s) of the holder(s), the other unpaid regular labour, and the other paid regular labour. For each category concerned (40, 50, 60), it is given in % of hours worked during the accounting year.

Share of work for OGA in % of annual work units (column W2)

The share of work for OGA in terms of annual work units is compulsory for all categories of labour except casual labour (both unpaid casual UC and paid casual PC labour). It is given in % of annual work unit for each category.
