COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/1652
of 4 November 2020
amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 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 the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
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 third subparagraph of Article 5(1), Articles 5a(2), 5b(7), 6(5), 7(2), the third and fourth subparagraphs of Article 8(3) and Article 19(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Article 10 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 (2) lays down methods and deadlines for data transmission to the Commission. Due to the COVID‐19 pandemic, in the year 2020, some Member States are facing exceptional administrative difficulties which might affect the timely submission of the farm returns to the Commission as regards the accounting year 2019. In order to facilitate the work of the Member States under similar exceptional circumstances, the Commission should have the possibility to extend the deadline for data submission under certain conditions. The proposed amendment should apply as from the accounting year 2019. |
(2) |
Annex IV to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 sets out the correspondence between the headings referred to in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1874 (3) and the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) farm returns. In that Annex, the terms ‘standard output’ (SO) and ‘standard output coefficient’ (SOC) are defined. Both terms and abbreviations should be indicated in both English and the language of the respective EU official language version. However, in order to facilitate comparison and analysis, Section A ‘Particular types of farming specialisation’ and Section B ‘Table of correspondence and regrouping codes’ in Annex IV should consist of only English abbreviations (SO or SOC). In addition, the wording and the formatting of the Tables of Annex IV should be improved and clarified. It is therefore appropriate to replace Annex IV by a new text. |
(3) |
Annex VIII to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 sets out the form and layout of the accountancy data contained in the farm returns. Three new variables that relate to the Producer Organisations (POs) should be added in Table A of that Annex. The objective of improving the position of farmers in the agri-food chain is supported by various common agricultural policy (CAP) measures. Collecting data on the farmers’ participation in producer organisations will therefore give valuable insight on the effects of the CAP. The proposed new variables should apply to all Member States as from the accounting year 2023. Member States which are unable to submit data for some or all of the three new variables may be exempted if they submit a duly justified request to the Commission before 31 May 2021. On a voluntary basis Member States should have the possibility to submit the data relating to the new variables as from accounting year 2021. |
(4) |
Annex VIII to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 sets out the form and layout of the accountancy data contained in the farm returns. It is necessary to improve terms used in the Table C and Table I of Annex VIII. It is therefore necessary to replace those tables. |
(5) |
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 should therefore be amended accordingly. The proposed amendment should apply as from the accounting year 2021. |
(6) |
The Committee for the Farm Accountancy Data Network has not delivered an opinion within the time limit laid down by its chair, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 is amended as follows:
(1) |
in Article 10, paragraph 3 the following subparagraph is added: ‘In the case of exceptional circumstances that may disrupt data delivery, the Member States shall promptly inform the Commission about the status of the data collection and data delivery as well as propose a solution for data delivery. After the analysis of information provided, the Commission may exceptionally extend the deadline referred to in the first subparagraph once by maximum 3 months.’; |
(2) |
Annex IV is replaced by the text set out in Annex I to this Regulation; |
(3) |
Annex VIII is amended in accordance with the Annex II to this Regulation. |
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply from the accounting year 2021.
However:
(a) |
Article 1(1) shall apply from the entry into force of this Regulation as regards the submission of farm returns for the accounting year 2019; |
(b) |
Article 1(3) as regards the variables A.OT.230.C, A.OT.231.C and A.OT.232.C introduced in Table A of Annex VIII to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 shall apply from the accounting year 2023. |
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 4 November 2020.

ANNEX I
‘ANNEX IV
PARTICULAR TYPES OF FARMING SPECIALISATIONS AND THEIR CORRESPONDENCE WITH GENERAL AND PRINCIPAL TYPES OF FARMING (ARTICLE 4)
The following definitions apply:
(a) |
Standard output (SO) is the standard value of gross production. The SO is used for classifying farms according to the Union farm typology (in which the type of farming is defined by main production activities) and for determining economic farm size. |
(b) |
Standard output coefficient (SOC) is the average monetary value of gross production of each agricultural variable referred to in Article 6(1), corresponding to the average situation in a given region, per unit of production. SOCs are calculated at farm-gate price, in euro per hectare of crop or euro per head of livestock (exceptions apply for mushrooms in euro per 100 m2, poultry in euro per 100 heads and bees in euro per hive). VAT, taxes and subsidies are not included in the farm-gate price. SOCs are updated at least every time a European survey on the structure of agricultural holdings is conducted. |
(c) |
Total SO of a holding is the sum of the individual production units of a specific holding multiplied by their respective SOC. |
A. PARTICULAR TYPES OF FARMING SPECIALISATION
The particular types of farming specialisation are defined by two features:
(a) |
The nature of the variables concerned The variables refer to the relevant list of variables surveyed in the IFS data collections: they are indicated by using the codes presented in the table of correspondence in Part B.I of this Annex or by a code regrouping several of those variables as set out in Part B.II of this Annex (1). |
(b) |
The conditions determining the class limits Unless otherwise indicated, these conditions are expressed as fractions of the total SO of the holding. |
All conditions indicated for particular types of farming specialisation have to be met cumulatively in order for the holding to be classified under the related particular type of farming specialisation.

ANNEX II
Annex VIII to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/220 is amended as follows:
(1) |
Table A is replaced by the following: ‘Table A General information on the holding
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:
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 (1) coming from the other gainful activities directly related to the holding in the total farm turnover. The following code numbers are to be used:
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:
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:
A.CL.130.C. Level of liability of the holder(s): an indication is to be given on the level of liability (economic responsibility) of the (main) holder. The following code numbers are to be used:
A.CL.140.C. Organic farming: an indication is to be given whether the holding applies organic production methods, within the meaning of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 (2), in particular Articles 4 and 5 thereof. The following code numbers are to be used:
A.CL.141.C. Sectors in organic farming: when the holding applies both organic and other production methods, an indication of the sectors of production where the holding applies only organic production method should be given (multiple selections are allowed). The code numbers listed below are to be used. When the holding applies both organic and other production methods for all its sectors of production, the code "not applicable" should be used.
A.CL.150.C. "Protected Designation of Origin" / "Protected Geographical Indication" / "Traditional Speciality Guaranteed" / "mountain product": an indication is to be given whether the holding produces agricultural products and/or foodstuffs protected by a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI), a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed (TSG) or a mountain product indications or whether it produces agricultural products which are known to be used to produce foodstuffs protected by PDO/PGI/TSG/"mountain product", within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3). The following code numbers are to be used:
A.CL.151.C. Sectors with Protected Designation of Origin / Protected Geographical Indication / Traditional Speciality Guaranteed / mountain product: if the majority of the production of some specific sectors is made of products or foodstuffs protected by PDO, PGI, TSG or "mountain product" indications or of products known to be used to produce foodstuffs protected by PDO, PGI, TSG or "mountain product" indications, an indication of the sectors of production should be given (multiple selections are allowed). The code numbers listed below are to be used. When the holding produces some products or foodstuffs protected by PDO, PGI, TSG or "mountain product" indications or some products known to be used to produce foodstuffs protected by PDO, PGI, TSG or "mountain product" indications, but it does not concern the majority of production in that particular sector, the code "not applicable" should be used.
The items A.CL.150.C. Protected Designation of Origin / Protected Geographical Indication / Traditional Speciality Guaranteed / mountain product and A.CL.151.C are optional for the Member States. If they are applied by the Member State, they should be filled in for all sample farms of the Member State. If A.CL.150.C is applied, A.CL.151.C should be applied as well. A.CL.160.C. Areas facing natural and other specific constraints: An indication is to be given of whether the majority of the utilised agricultural area of the holding is situated in an area covered by Article 32 of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4). In those Member States where the delimitation of areas facing significant natural constraints in accordance with Article 32(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 is not yet completed, reference is made to the areas which were eligible under Article 36(a)(ii) of Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 during the 2007-2013 programming period. The following code numbers are to be used:
A.CL.170.C. Altitude: The altitude should be indicated by the corresponding code number:
A.CL.180.C. Structural Funds area: an indication is to be given of whether the majority of the utilised agricultural area of the holding is situated in an area covered by Article 90 paragraph 2 (a), (b) and (c) of Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5). The following code numbers are to be used:
A.CL.190.C. Natura 2000 area: an indication is to be given of whether the majority of the utilised agricultural area of the holding is situated in areas related to the implementation of Council Directive 79/409/EEC (6) and Council Directive 92/43/EEC (7) (Natura 2000). The following code numbers are to be used:
A.CL.200.C. Water directive (Directive 2000/60/EC) area: an indication is to be given of whether the majority of the utilised agricultural area of the holding is situated in areas related to the implementation of Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (8). The following code numbers are to be used:
A.OT. Other particulars concerning the holding A.OT.210.C. Irrigation system: an indication is to be given on the main irrigation system applied in the farm:

For the purpose of this survey, ‘producer organisations’ refer to any type of entity that has been formed on the initiative of producers to pursue joint activities in a specific sector (horizontal cooperation). Producer organisations must be controlled by producers, they can take different legal forms e.g. agricultural cooperatives, farmers’ associations, or private companies with producers as shareholders. (Recognition of the producer organisation in line with Articles 152 or 161 of Regulation (EU) 1308/2013 is required).

A.OT.232.C Number of members of Producer Organisations (POs): Indication of the size of the main PO of which the farm (farm holder(s) or manager(s)) is a member, it means of the PO that markets most of the farm’s production (in terms of value).
The submission of data relating to variables A.OT.230.C, A.OT.231.C and A.OT.232.C is mandatory as from the accounting year 2023; however, Member States may be exempted from the submission of data relating to some or all these variables if they submit a duly justified request by 31 May 2021 at the latest. The Commission services will review justifications and will decide about the exemption. An exempted Member State may reconsider its choice and inform the Commission accordingly. On a voluntary basis, Member States may submit the data relating to variables A.OT.230.C, A.OT.231.C and A.OT.232.C as from the accounting year 2021. COLUMNS IN TABLE A Column R refers to FADN division, column S to subdivision, column H to the serial number of the holding, column DG to degrees, column MI to minutes, column N to NUTS, column AO to the number of the accounting office, column DT to date, column W to weight of the farm, column TF to type of farming, column ES to economic size class and column C to code.’ |

Table C is replaced by the following: ‘Table C Labour
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 :
The following groups of information and categories of labour are to be distinguished:
COLUMNS IN TABLE C Number of persons (column P) Where there are several holders, there may be more than one spouse/partner. The number of spouses/partners 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). Sex (column G) The sex 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 sex is indicated by a code number, i.e.:
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.:
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)/partner(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.
