Figure: Share of EU rural development support for restructuring and modernisation

Indicator(s) used in the graph:

Mapping with legend(s) in the graph:

Notes:

• The Declarations of expenditure for European agricultural fund (DOE) are quarterly notifications of Member States expenditure.
• The numerator is the sum of the following sub indicators, all referred to the focus area 2A (improving the economic performance of all farms and facilitating farm restructuring and modernisation):
• OIR_01b_3.1 - total EU expenditure under measure 1 (Training) and 2 (Advice)
• OIR_01b_4.1 - total EU expenditure under measure 4 (Investments)
• OIR_01b_5.1 - total EU expenditure under measure 16 (Cooperation)
• For the denominator, the total EU expenditure for priorities 2 - 6 is used.
• The national co-financing is not included in this calculation.
• Data is cumulated over time. Rural development expenditure builds up towards the end of the period (e.g. productive investments and Leader). This is why the percentage is increasing over time.

Notes:

• The comparison between Member States of the change over time of TFP growth is meaningful but not the comparison of the indicator as such.
• This is an index, in the first step 2010 is set at 100, then 3 year-averages are calculated to smooth the effect of weather e.g. on the indicator. Therefore, in the graph 2010 corresponds to the (2007-2010) average.

MAP: Share of holdings with RD support for investments in restructuring or modernisation (%)

Indicator(s) used in the graph:

Mapping with legend(s) in the graph:

Notes:

• The Focus Area 2A of Rural Development Programmes is improving the economic performance of all farms and facilitating farm restructuring and modernisation.
• The number of holdings benefitting from measures under this focus area are reported by Member States to the Commission in the Annual implementation reports (AIR) of Rural Development programmes.
• The total number of holdings in the EU comes from the Eurostat Farm Structure Survey. As this figure is not available every year, the figure of number of holdings used to calculate the indicator is the one of the year closest to the corresponding AIR (e.g. for AIR 2015 the 2016 Eurostat Farm Survey figure is used).
• Data is cumulated over time. Rural development expenditure builds up towards the end of the period for productive investments. This is why the percentage is increasing over time. In addition, Member States are invited to report at the time of completion of the project. The implementation of investments project can take several years, thus the low figures at the beginning of the programing period. To reflect better the progress of Member States towards the implementation of the investment measure, Member States have the possibility to report on the project when the works have started since AIR 2018.

Graph: Labour productivity in agriculture compared to food industry (EUR/FTE)

Mapping with legend(s) in the graph:

Notes:

• FTE stands for Full Time Equivalent, in agriculture the terminology Annual Working Unit (AWU) is also used.

Notes:

• The Declarations of expenditure for European agricultural fund (DOE) are quarterly notifications of Member States expenditure.
• The share is calculated for the numerator as sum of the following sub indicators, all referred to the focus area 2A (improving the economic performance of all farms and facilitating farm restructuring and modernisation):
• OIR_01b_3.1 - total EU expenditure under measure 1 (Training) and 2 (Advice)
• OIR_01b_4.1 - total EU expenditure under measure 4 (Investments)
• OIR_01b_5.1 - total EU expenditure under measure 16 (Cooperation)
• For the denominator, the total EU expenditure for priorities 2 - 6 is used.
• The national co-financing is not included in this calculation.
• Data is cumulated over time. Rural development expenditure builds up towards the end of the period (e.g. productive investments and Leader). This is why the percentage is increasing over time.

Graph: Number of EIP groups supported with the CAP

Indicator(s) used in the graph:

Notes:

• The number of European Innovation Partnership (EIP) operations supported by Measure 16 - Cooperation are reported by Member States to the Commission in the Annual implementation reports (AIR) of Rural Development programmes.
