COMMISSION DECISIONof 26 October  1989relating to the definitions of the characteristics and to the list of agricultural products  for the surveys on the structure of agricultural holdings during the period 1988 to  1997(89/651/EEC)THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88 of 29 February 1988 on the organization of  Community surveys on the structure of agricultural holdings between 1988 and 1997 (1), as amended  by Regulation (EEC) N° 807/89 (2), and in particular Article 8 thereof, Whereas if the findings of the surveys on the structure of agricultural holdings provided for in  Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88 are to be in concordance throughout the European Economic Community, the  terms contained in the list of characteristics must be understood and applied in a uniform manner; Whereas Community definitions should therefore be laid down for these terms wherever necessary; Whereas for the purpose of comparability of survey results the definitions and geographical areas  used for previous surveys on the structure of agricultural holdings should be retained wherever  possible; Whereas in accordance with Article 8 (2) of Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88 the definitions relating to  the list of characteristics and to regions and districts are those laid down in Commission Decision  83/461/EEC (3), as lastamended by Decision 85/643/EEC (4); whereas any amendments shall be  adopted according to the procedure laid down in Article 15 of Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88; Whereas Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88 refers to a period extending from 1988 to 1997 and applies to  several Community surveys; whereas a complete and updated list of agreed Community definitions for  the characteristics to be surveyed should be established; Whereas, furthermore, in order to permit practical use of the list of characteristics in the Member  States and facilitate interpretation of the survey results, these Decisions should be supplemented  by explanations and examples; Whereas, in particular in the sense of Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88, the statistical definition of  the term 'agricultural holding' should be uniform throughout the European Economic Community and  since that definition itself refers to 'agricultural products' it is consequently necessary to  adopt the standard list of these products; Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the  Standing Committee on Agricultural Statistics, HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION: Article 1The Community definitions to be used for Community surveys on the  structure of agricultural holdings as providedfor by Regulation (EEC) N° 571/88 are given in  Annex I, together with the relevant explanations and examples. Article 2The list of agricultural products referred to in the definition of agricultural holdings  is given in Annex II. Article 3In view of circumstances peculiar to certain Member States, exceptions to the Community  definitions shall be accepted as set out in Annex III. Article 4This Decision is addressed to the Member States. Done at Brussels, 26 October 1989. For the CommissionHenning CHRISTOPHERSENVice-President(1) OJ N° L 56, 2. 3.  1988, p. 1.

ANNEX I DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATIONS APPLICABLE TO THE LIST OF CHARACTERISTICS TO BE  USED FOR COMMUNITY SURVEYS ON THE STRUCTURE OF AGRICULTURAL HOLDINGS (I = definitions, II =  explanatory notes)AGRICULTURAL HOLDINGI. A single unit both technically and economically, which has single management and the output of  which is agricultural products. II. 1. An agricultural holding is thus defined by the following characteristics: 1.1. Output of agricultural productsFor the purpose of this survey 'agricultural products' are taken to  be those products listed in Annex II. 1.2. Single managementThere can be single management even though this is carried out by two or more  persons acting jointly. 1.3. A single unit technically and economicallyIn general this is indicated by a common use of labour  and means of production. 2. Special cases2.1. (a)  When a holding is for tax or other reasons split up among two or more persons; or(b)  when  two or more separate holdings, each having previously been an independent holding, have been  integrated in the hands of a single holder; the treatment is as a single holding, if there is a single management and technical and economic  unity. 2.2. Cases where a parcel of land has been retained by the former holder when transferring the holding  to his successor (heir, tenant, etc.). This is: (a)  included with the successor's holding if the retained land is worked in conjunction with the  rest of the holding and if in general the same labour force and means of production as for the rest  of the holding are employed; (b)  attributed to the previous holder's holding if normally worked with the labour force and means  of production of that holding. 2.3. For the purposes of this survey, the following are counted as agricultural holdings in so far as  they fulfil the other criteria mentioned above as defining an agricultural holding: (a)  bull, boar, ram and he-goat breeding stations, studs and hatcheries; (b)  the agricultural holdings of research institutes, sanatoria and convalescent homes, religious  communities, schools and prisons; (c)  agricultural holdings which form part of industrial enterprises; (d)  comon land consisting of pasture, horticultural or other land, provided that such land is  operated as an agricultural holding by the local authority concerned (e.g. by the taking of animals  into agistment (;). (;) The following are not considered here: - common land allotted (C/03), - common land which has been rented out (C/02). 2.4. Not included as agricultural holdings for the purposes of this survey are: (a)  riding stables, racing stables, gallops (i.e. land used for exercising racehorses); (b)  kennels; (c)  markets, abattoirs, etc. (without rearing). 2.5. 'Single-product group-holdings' are treated as agricultural holdings independent of the 'parent'  holdings if they mainly use their own factors of production and do not rely mainly on the factors  of production of the 'parent' holdings (;). A.  GEOGRAPHICAL SITUATION OF THE HOLDINGThe holding and all the information relating to it is  taken as being in that district where the headquarters of the holding is situated (A/01). Headquarters of the holdingThe headquarters of the holding is defined according to Member States'  own rules. A/01DistrictsI. The regions and districts for the purposes of structure surveys are as follows: GERMANY (country code = 01) RegionsDistricts001. Schleswig-Holstein001.  Schleswig-Holstein003. Niedersachsen001.

LEGAL PERSONALITY AND MANAGEMENT OF THE HOLDINGB/01andB/02The person legally or economically  responsible for the holding (hereafter called the holder)I. The holder of the holding is that (natural or legal) person in whose name the holding is operated.  The holder can own the holding outright or rent it or be a hereditary long-term leaseholder or a  usufructuary or a trustee. II. The holder may have delegated all or part of power of decision to a manager. If on one holding two or more natural persons carry out the functions of the holder only one of  them is shown as such (e.g. the one who bears the greatest share of the risk or who takes the main  part in managing the holding. If such criteria still fail to pick out one individual the choice  should be based on some other criterion, such as age). In the case of share farming the share farmer is shown as holder. B/01Natural personI. For the purpose of this heading a natural person may be either a single individual or a group of  individuals. II. The following, inter alia, are to be regarded as groups of individuals: married couples, siblings,  joint beneficiaries under a will or intestacy, etc. B/02Manager of the holdingI. The person responsible for the normal daily running of the holding concerned. II. The manager is generally but not always the same person as the holder. In case the holder is not  also the manager he has charged someone else, for example a member of his family, with the running  of the holding. One person only is taken as the manager. In the case where more than one person takes part in the  normal daily running of the holding, then the person who takes the greatest part is considered as  the manager. If this part is equally divided the necessary distinction may be made on the basis of  age. B/03Manager's agricultural trainingOnly practical experienceI. Experience acquired through practical work on an agricultural holding. Basic trainingI. Any training courses completed at a general agricultural college and/or an institution specializing  in certain subjects (including horticulture, viticulture, sylviculture, pisciculture, veterinary  science, agricultural technology and associated subjects). II. A completed agricultural apprenticeship is regarded as basic training. Full agricultural trainingI. Any training course continuing for at least two years after the end of compulsory education (;) and  completed at an agricultural college, university or other institute of higher education in  agriculture, horticulture, viticulture, sylviculture, pisciculture, veterinary science,  agricultural technology or an associated subject. B/04Are accounts kept for the management of the holding?I. Accounts must include at least the systematic and regular recording of all current income and  expenditure for the purpose of establishing, at the end of the accounting period, the profit  achieved by the holding. (;) Age at which compulsory education ends in each Member State: see footnote on page 28 of this  Official Journal. II. An accounting system is also deemed to exist if such recording did not commence until during the 12  months preceding the survey. Agricultural accounts may serve as a basis for administration of the holding by the holding  manager; they may also be used to draw up a balance sheet and a profit and loss account. The following are not regarded as 'accounting systems': - occasional notes on certain operations in a ledger or notebook, - income and expenditure records (for calculating the rentability) for only part of the holding's  activities, - data prepared for tax purposes only. C. TYPE OF TENURE AND FRAGMENTATION OF THE HOLDINGC/01to03Utilized agricultural areaI. The total area taken up by arable land, permanent pasture, permanent crops and kitchen gardens  (owner-farmed, tenant-farmed or worked free of charge). II. Type of tenure - special cases1.  Where a 'single-product group holding' is treated as an  independent holding (see 'agricultural holdings', point 2.5) the total atricultural area of the  group-holding is attributed to the person named as holder (B/01/II) but given the type of tenure  under which it is held by the 'parent' holding. 2.  Land in co-ownership or leased and worked by several holdings but which does not constitute a  'single-product group-holding' is treated as relating to the holder who takes the greatest part in  running it but each part is given the type of tenure under which it is held by the parent holding. C/01Owner-farmed agricultural areaI. Agricultural land being farmed by the holding being surveyed and which is the property of the  holder or farmed by him as usufructuary or heritable long-term lease holder or under some other  equivalent type of tenure. II. Land allotted to a farm worker (for his own cultivation) as part of his wage is allocated to the  holding making the allotment, unless the farm worker uses his own means of production. Parcels of land retained by the former holder (see 'Agricultural holding', point 2.2) are allocated  to the main holding if worked with that holding. However, grazing rights on common grazing land are not included, e.g. on common land belonging to  the parish or to a cooperative (such areas, not being part of a holding, are not covered in this  survey). C/02Tenant-farmed agricultural areaI. Land rented by the holding in general for a period of at least 12 months and in return for a fixed  rent agreed in advance (in cash, kind or otherwise), and for which there is a (written or oral)  tenancy agreement. II. The rented land can consist of: - a complete holding, - individual parcels of land. Parcels of land or holdings rented by the holder from members of the holder's family are included  here if these areas are farmed as part of the holding surveyed. Also included is land belonging to  another holding but worked by the holding under survey in return for a certain number of hours of  labour but not land put at the disposal of a farm-worker as a form of wage (;). (;) As opposed to the case of land put at the disposal of a farm worker as a form of wage, which  generally remains within the crop rotation system of the holding, a tenancy agreement of the type  envisaged here will specify not merely the area of land concerned but also where it is and its  exact boundaries. Land worked by the holding as conacre '11 month land' in Ireland and in Northern Ireland or as  'zaaiklaargehuurd land' (land ready for sowing rented for a year) also comes under this heading. Rented land which has been sublet to a third party is not included, since it does not constitute  part of the holding surveyed. C/03Agricultural area share-farmed or farmed under other modesI. (a) Share-farmed agricultural areaLand (which may constitute a complete holding) farmed in  partnership by the landlord and the share-cropper under a written or oral share-farming contract.  The production of the share cropped area is shared between two parties on an agreed basis. (b) Agricultural area utilized under other modes of tenureOther modes of tenure not covered by  C/01 to 03 (a). II. This includes inter alia: 1.  Land over which the holder enjoys rights: - by virtue of his occupancy of a particular post (forester, priest, teacher, etc.), - allotted by the parish or other organization, e.g. common grazing land apportioned on an acreage  basis (as distinct from land over which common grazing rights are enjoyed). 2.  Land which the holding works free of any charge (e.g. areas from derelict holdings being worked  by the holding surveyed). 3.  'Colonia parziaria' - of complete holdings and of individual parcels of land (;). C/04Number of parcels making up the utilized agricultural areaI. A parcel is any piece of land belonging to the holding but completely surrounded by land, water,  roads or forests, etc., not belonging to the holding. II. A parcel may consist of one or more adjacent fields. A field is a piece of land situated within,  but separated from the rest of a block by clearly visible demarcation lines (e.g. tracks, ditches,  brooks, hedgerows). A field may comprise one or more plots of land. A plot of land is that part of  a field (or its entirety used for a given crop or combination or crops. DtoILAND USE ($)The total area of the holding (D to H) consists of the agricultural area  utilized by the holding (D to G) and other land (H). I. The agricultural area utilized for farming includes the area under main crops for harvest in the  year of the survey. II. For the breakdown of land use by area farmed each area is listed only once. Permanent crops and crops lasting several years (e.g. asparagus, strawberries or bushes), not yet  in production, are included. Cultivated mushrooms are excluded. In the case of combined crops the utilized agricultural area is allocated among the crops pro rata  to the use of the ground by the crops concerned. (;) In 'colonia parziaria' of complete holdings the grantor entrusts a farm to the head of a  family, who undertakes to carry out with the aid of the members of his family (the farm family) all  the work required on the holding and himself to bear part of the outgoings and to divide the farm's  production with the grantor in fixed proportions. In 'colonia parziaria' of individual parcels of land the grantor entrusts solely one or more  parcels of land which are used under the same conditions as described under (a). ($) The reference numbers given in the definitions of items under headings D to G are based on the  list of agricultural products (Annex II). Areas of agriculture combined with woodland are similarly split up. This principle does not apply to mixed crops (these are crops grown and harvested together on the  same ground, e.g. mixed corn), or to successive crops (e.g. barley undersown with clover for later  harvesting). In the case of combined crops, if one crop has no significance for the holding, it is ignored in  the breakdwon of the areas. In the case of successive crops the area of each successive crop is not calculated. The area is  allocated to one crop taken as the main crop (;). An exemption from the principle of pro rata allocation may be made where the results would not be  satisfactory, provided that the rules established by the Member States in agreement with the  Commission are respected. D. ARABLE LANDI. Land worked regularly, generally under a system of crop rotation. II. Arable land comprises crop categories D/01 to D/20 and fallow land (D/21).

If the value of  production does not determine which is the main crop, then the main crop is taken as the one which  occupies the ground for the longest time. D/11Sugar beet (excluding seeds)D/12Forage roots and tubers (excluding seeds)D/13Industrial  crops (including seeds for herbaceous oil seed plants, excluding seeds for fibre plants, hops,  tobacco and other industrial crops) of which: D/13(a) TobaccoD/13(b) HopsD/13(c) CottonD/13(d) Other oil seed and fibre plants and other  industrial plantsD/13(d) i(i) Oil seeds (total)of which: - rape and turnip rape- sunflower- soya beanD/13(d) (ii) Aromatic and medicinal plants and  herbsII.

Cultivated mushrooms (I/02) are excluded. D/14Fresh vegetables, melons, strawberries - outdoor or under low (non-accessible) coverD/14(a)  Open fieldI. Vegetables, melons, strawberries grown on land in rotation with other agricultural crops. D/14(b) Market gardeningI. Vegetables, melons and strawberries grown on land in rotation with other horticultural crops. D/15, D/17andG/07Crops under glass or high (accessible) coverI. Crops which for the whole of their period of growth or for the predominant part of it are covered  by greenhouses or fixed or mobile high cover (glass or rigid or flexible plastic). II. This excludes sheets of plastic laid flat on the ground, also land under cloches or tunnels not  accessible to man or movable glass-covered frames. For mobile greenhouses or high cover the area reported is the total area actually covered during  the preceding 12 months (summing them up to calculate the total area covered), not merely the area  covered by the installation at any one time. Areas of crops which are grown temporarily under glass and temporarily in the open air are reproted  as entirely under glass, unless the period under glass is of extremely limited duration. If the same area under glass is used more than once it is reported once only. Only the base area of multi-storeyed greenhouses is counted. D/16and17Flowers and ornamental plants (excluding seedlings)D/18Forage plantsI. All green forage crops grown in rotation and occupying the same land for less than five years  (annual or multiannual feed crops). II. Cereals and industrial plants harvested and/or consumed green for forage are included. Fodder roots  and brassicas (D/12) are excluded. D/18(a) Temporary grassI. Pasture, lasting at least one crop year and less than five years, sown with grass or grass  mixtures.

All land included in the crop rotation system, whether worked or not, but not producing a harvest  for the duration of a crop year. II. Fallow land is not to be confused with successive crops (I/01) and unutilized agricultural area  (H/01). The essential characteristic of fallow land is that it is left to recover, normally for the  whole of a crop year. Fallow land may be: 1.  bare land bearing no crops at all; 2.  land with spontaneous natural growth, which may be used as feed or ploughed in; 3.  land sown exclusively for the production of green manure (green fallow). E. KITCHEN GARDENSI. Land separated off from the rest of the holding and recognizable as kitchen garden, devoted to the  cultivation of products which are mainly for consumption by persons living on the holding. II. Not included are: - pleasure gardens (parks and lawns) (H/03), - areas cultivated by collective households, for example research institutions, religious  communities, boarding schools, prisons, etc. These areas count as an agricultural holding if such a  holding, while linked to a collective household, is operated in such a way as to fulfil the other  criteria of an agricultural holding. These areas are, in the same way as the areas of an  agricultural holding, classified according to their use. F. PERMANENT PASTURE AND MEADOWF/01Pasture and meadow, excluding rough grazingI. Land other than rough grazing, not included in the crop rotation system, used for the permanent  production (five years or longer) of green forage crops, whether sown or self-seeded. II.

Pasture, usually on hilly land, unimproved by fertilizer, cultivation, reseeding or drainage. II. This can include: stony ground, heath, moorland and 'deer forests' in Scotland. Rough grazing not in use is excluded (H/01). G. PERMANENT CROPSI. Crops not grown in rotation, other than permanent pasture, which occupy the soil for a long period  and yield crops over several years. II. This category includes nurseries (except non-commercial nurseries of forest trees grown in woods,  which are included under woodland), and plants used for plaiting or weaving (osier, reeds, rushes,  etc.: G/06). Permanent crops which are treated as vegetables or as ornamental plants or industrial plants (e.g.  asparagus, roses, decorative shrubs cultivated for their blossom or leaves, strawberries, hops) are  not included in this category. G/01Fruit and berry plantationsI. Areas containing trees and bushes for the production of fruit. Orchards may be of the continuous  type with minimum spacing between trees or of the non-continuous type with large spacing, and may  not contain other crops. II. Chestnut trees are included. Citrus and olive plantations and vines are excluded (G/02, 03, 04). G/01(a) Fresh fruit and berry species of temperate climate zonesG/01(b) Fruit and berry species  of subtropical climate zonesII.

II. Commercial forest-tree nurseries, whether in woodland or outside, are included under G/05, as are  non-commercial forest-tree nurseries for the holding's own requirements grown outside woodland.  However the (generally small) nurseries for the holding's own requirements grown within woodland  are included with other woodland (item H/02). In tabular form: >TABLE>G/06Other permanent cropsI. Open-air permanent crops other than those included under G/01 to 05 and in particular those for  plaiting or weaving (011.93). G/07Permanent crops under glass (see D/15, D/17)H. OTHER LAND'Other land' includes unutilized agricultural land (agricultural land which is no longer  farmed, for economic, social or other reasons, and which is not used in the crop rotation system)  and other land (land occupied by buildings, farmyards, tracks, ponds, quarries, infertile land,  etc.). H/01andH/03Unutilized agricultural land (agricultural land which is no longer farmed, for  economic, social or other reasons, and which is not used in the crop rotation system) and other  land (land occupied by buildings, farmyards, pleasure gardens, tracks, ponds, quarries, infertile  land, rock, etc.). II. As from 1988, categories H/01 and H/03, which were treated separately up to the 1987 survey, are  dealt with as a single characteristic: 'H/01 and H/03'. In the current list of definitions, these two characteristics are still listed separately to ensure  continuity between the surveys carried out from 1988 on and previous ones. H/01Unutilized agricultural land (agricultural land which is no longer farmed, for economic,  social or other reasons, and which is not used in the crop rotation system)I. Area previously used as an agricultural area and during the reference year of the survey no longer  worked for economic social or other reasons and which is not used in the crop rotation system. II. This land could be brought back into cultivation using the resources normally available on an  agricultural holding. The following are excluded: - pleasure gardens (parks and lawns) (H/03), - fallow land (D/21). H/02WoodlandI. Areas covered with trees or forest shrubs, including poplar plantations inside or outside woods and  forest-tree nurseries grown in woodland for the holding's own requirements. II. Where agricultural crops are combined with woodland the area is split pro rata to the use of the  ground. Wind-breaks, shelter-belts, hedgerows, etc. should be included in so far as it is appropriate to  regard them as woodland. Christmas trees are included here. The following are excluded: - walnut and chestnut trees grown mainly for their fruit (G/01), other plantations of non-forest  trees (G) and osieries (G/06), - areas of isolated trees, small groups or lines of trees (H/03), - parks (H/03), gardens (parks and lawns) (H/03), pasture (F/01 and F/02) and unutilized rough  grazing (H/01), - heath and moorland (F/01 or H/01), - commercial forest-tree nurseries and other nurseries outside woodland (G/05).

H/02(d)  ConiferousWoodland where at least 75 % of the trees are coniferous. H/02(e)  MixedI. All other woodlands not included under H/02 (c) or H/02 (d). H/03Other land (land occupied by buildings, pleasure gardens, farmyards, tracks, ponds, quarries,  infertile land, rock, etc.).I. All those parts of the total area belonging to the agricultural holding which constitute neither  utilized agricultural area, non-utilized area or woodland. II. This heading covers in particular: 1.  areas not used directly for crop production, but necessary for working the farm, such as ground  occupied by buildings or roadways; 2.  areas unsuitable for agricultural production, i.e. which can be cultivated only by extreme  means not normally available on an agricultural holding, for example marshland, heaths, etc. 3.  pleasure gardens (parks and lawns).

The survey must record the area of the beds available for growing crops which are or will be filled  with compost at least once during the 12-month reference period. If this is done more than once the area is still counted once only. I/03Irrigated areaI/03(a) Total irrigable areaI. The maximum area which could be irrigated in the reference year using the equipment and the  quantity of water normally available on the holding. II. The total irrigable area may differ from the sum of the areas provided with irrigation equipment  since the equipment may be mobile and therefore utilizable on several fields in the course of a  harvest year; capacity may also be restricted by the quantity of water available or by the period  within which mobility is possible. I/03(b) Area of crops which are irrigated at least once a yearI. Area of crops which have actually been irrigated at least once during the 12 months prior to the  survey date. II. Crops under glass and kitchen gardens, which are almost always irrigated, should not be included.

I/04Ground area covered by greenhouses in useI. Greenhouses are fixed or movable installations of glass, plastic or any other material which is  translucent but impervious to water, in which crops are grown under protective cover. The following are excluded: - fixed, movable or adjustable frames, - low (non-accessible) plastic tunnels, - cloches. II. Only greenhouses used during the 12 months preceding the date of the survey should be included. The base area covered by the greenhouses should be given.

Simultaneous cultivation of temporary crops (arable crops or pasture and meadow) and permanent  crops and/or forestry plants in one and the same field, and in the broader sense also the  simultaneous cultivation of different types of permanent or temporary crops in one and the same  field. II. This characteristic covers the total area actually used for the combined crops. The subdivision of  the total area into the different crops is dealt with under D to I 'Land use'. I/05(a) Agricultural crops (including pasture and meadow) - forestry speciesI/05(b) Permanent  crops - annual cropsI/05(c) Permanent crops - permanent cropsI/05(d) OthersI/06Land subject  to the set-aside incentive scheme for arable land and recorded under: (a)Fallow land, with rotation possibilities (D/21)(b)Permanent pasture and meadow used as  grazing for extensive livestock farming (F/01 and F/02)(c)Lentils, chick peas and vetches  (D/09)(d)Wooded areas or areas being prepared for afforestation (H/02)(e)Areas for the time  being or permanently used for non-agricultural purposes (H/01 and H/03)(f)TotalI.

In the case of holdings where the holder is not a natural person the sections 'holder' (L/01),  'spouse' (L/02) and 'other members of the family' (L/03 (a) and L/03 (b)) are not completed. The  manager is recorded under L/01 (a) and considered to be non-family labour. L/01andL/01(a)Holder and holding manager: these are defined under B/01 and B/02Age at which  compulsory education ends in each Member State:   - Belgium: 14 years, - Denmark: 16 years, - Germany: 15 years, - Greece: 14 years, - Spain: 16 years, - France: 16 years, - Ireland: 15 years, - Italy: 14 years, - Luxembourg: 15 years, - Netherlands: 16 years, - Portugal: 14 years, - United Kingdom: 16 years. Although in Portugal compulsory education ends at the age of 14, in the framework of structure  surveys young people working in agriculture are recorded from the age of 12. The observation period may be less than 12 months if the information provided is on a 12-months  basis. L/02Holder's spouseII. Only spouses carrying out 'agricultural work' for the holding surveyed (see above) should be  included. Where the spouse is the holding manager he or she should be entered under L/01 (a). L/03Other members of the holder's familyI. 'Other members of the holder's family' are those other than the holder's spouse who live and work  on the holding or who live elsewhere but do agricultural work on the holding. II. 'Members of the holder's family' means: the spouse, relatives in the ascending or descending line  and other relatives (including those by marriage and by adoption). It is irrelevant whether or not  such persons receive a wage. Where a member of the holder's family is the holding manager he or she should be entered under L/01  (a). L/04to06Non-family labourI. All persons doing agricultural work for and paid by the agricultural holding other than the holder  and members of his family. L/04Non-family labour regularly employedI. Regular employment: Persons who worked every week on the holding under survey during the 12 months  preceding the survey, irrespective of length of the working week. Persons who worked regularly for part of that period, but where unable, for any of the following  reasons, to work for the entire period are also included: 1.  special conditions of production on the holding; 2.  absence by reason of holidays, military service, sickness, accident or death; 3.  commencement or cessation of employment with the holding; 4.  complete stoppage of work on the holding due to accidental causes (flooding, fire, etc.). II. Holdings with special conditions of production (point 1 above) include, for example, holdings  specializing in growing olives or grapes or fruit and vegetables in the open or in fattening cattle  on grass and only requiring labour for a limited number of months. Point 3 above covers workers who move from one farm to another during the 12 months before the day  of survey. Short-term seasonal workers, e.g. labour engaged solely as fruit and vegetable pickers,  are not included here but under L/05 and 06, where the number of days worked is entered. L/05and06Non-family labour not regularly employedI. 'Not regularly employed', workers who did not work each week on the agricultural holding in the 12  months preceding the survey day for a reason other than those listed under L/04. L/01to06The time worked on the holdingI. The working time actually devoted to agricultural work for the holding, excluding work in the  households of the holder or manager. 'Full-time' means the minimum hours required by the national provisions governing contracts of  employment. If these do not indicate the number of annual hours then 1 800 is to be taken as the  minimum figure (225 working days of 8 hours per day). A working day is any day during which there is performed for a period of not less than eight hours  work of the kind normally carried out by a full-time agricultural worker. Days of leave and  sickness do not count as working days. OTHER GAINFUL ACTIVITYL/07to/L/09Other gainful activityI. Every activity other than activity relating to agricultural work as defined under L, carried out  for remuneration (salary, wages or other payment, including payment in kind, according to the  service rendered). II.This includes gainful activities carried out on the holding itself (camping sites, accommodation  for tourist, etc.) or on another agricultural holding as well as activity in a non-agricultural  enterprise. Major occupationI. Activity declared by the respondent as being his main activity. II. Normally an activity which occupies more time than that relating to the agricultural work done for  the agricultural holding under survey. Subsidiary occupationI. Any other activity of a respondent who declares the agricultural activity of the holding under  survey to be his main activity. II. Normally an activity which occupies less time than that relating to the agricultural work done for  the agricultural holding under survey. L/10Total number of working days of agricultural work, not included under L/01 to L/06, undertaken  on the holding by persons not employed directly by the holding (e.g. contractors' employees). I. All types of agricultural work (see notes under L/01 to L/06 'Farm labour force of the holding')  undertaken on the holding by persons who are not employed by the holding, but are self-employed or  employed by third parties, e.g. contractors or cooperatives. II. Persons working on the holding surveyed on behalf of another person are included. Work done by  agricultural accounting firms and unpaid mutual aid are excluded. The number of hours worked must  be converted into the equivalent number of days or weeks on a full-time basis. (1) OJ N° L 99, 5. 5. 1970, p. 20. (2) OJ N° L 84, 27. 3. 1987, p. 59.
