    I.

    GENERAL VARIABLES

    Survey information

    CGNR 001

    Agricultural holding identifier

    The agricultural holding unique identifier is a unique numeric identifier for transmitting the data.

    Location of the agricultural holding

    The agricultural holding is located where the farm carries out its main agricultural activity.

    CGNR 002

    Geographical location

    The cell code of the 1 km INSPIRE Statistical Units Grid for pan-European usage (1) where the farm is located. This code will be used only for transmission purposes.

    For data dissemination purposes, in addition to the normal disclosure control mechanisms for tabular data, the 1 km grid will be used only if there are more than 10 agricultural holdings in the grid; failing that, nested 5 km, 10 km or larger grids will be used as required.

    CGNR 003

    NUTS 3 region

    The code of the NUTS 3 (2) region (according to Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3)) in which the holding is located.

    CGNR 004

    The agricultural holding has areas designated as facing natural constraints under Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013

    Information on areas facing natural constraints (ANC) is to be provided in line with Article 32 of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (4).

     

    L — the agricultural holding is in an area other than a mountainous area, facing significant natural constraints

     

    M — the agricultural holding is in a mountainous area

     

    O — the agricultural holding is in another area affected by specific constraints

     

    N — the agricultural holding is not part of an area facing natural constraints

    Legal personality of the agricultural holding

    The legal personality of the agricultural holding depends on the holder's status.

     

    Legal and economic responsibility of the agricultural holding is assumed by a:

    CGNR 005

    Natural person who is sole holder, where the agricultural holding is independent

    A single individual and natural person who is the holder of an agricultural holding which is not linked to any agricultural holdings of other holders, either by common management or similar arrangements.

    Agricultural holdings which fulfill this condition are called sole holder agricultural holdings .

    CGNR 006

    If yes, is the holder also the manager?

    CGNR 007

    If no, is the manager a member of the holder's family?

    CGNR 008

    If yes, is the manager the spouse of the holder?

    CGNR 009

    Shared ownership

    Natural persons, who are the sole holders of an agricultural holding which is not linked to any agricultural holdings of other holders, and who share the ownership and management of the agricultural holding.

    CGNR 010

    Two or more natural persons who are partners, where the agricultural holding is a holding-group

    Partner(s) of a group holding are natural persons who together own, rent or otherwise manage one agricultural holding or together manage their individual holdings as if they were one holding. Such cooperation must be either in conformity with the law or by written agreement.

    CGNR 011

    Legal person

    A legal entity other than a natural person but having the normal rights and duties of an individual, such as the ability to sue or to be sued (a general legal capacity of its own).

    CGNR 012

    If yes, is the agricultural holding part of an enterprise group?

    An enterprise group is an association of enterprises bound together by legal and/or financial links and controlled by the group head.

    An ‘enterprise’ is the smallest combination of legal units that is an organisational unit producing goods or services, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy in decision-making, especially for the allocation of its current resources. An enterprise carries out one or more activities at one or more locations. An enterprise may be a sole legal unit.

    CGNR 013

    The agricultural holding is a common land unit

    For the purposes of data collection and recording, a ‘common land unit’ agricultural holding is an entity consisting of the utilised agricultural area (UAA) which is used under common rights by other agricultural holdings.

    CGNR 014

    The holder is a beneficiary of EU support for land or animals on the agricultural holding and thus included in the integrated administration and control system (IACS)

    The holder is an active farmer within the meaning of Article 9 of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (5) and the application for a subsidy has been accepted.

    CGNR 015

    The holder is a young farmer or new entrant into farming who has received financial support for this purpose under the common agricultural policy (CAP) in the previous 3 years

    The financial support can refer to direct payments under Articles 50 and 51 of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 or support provided by rural development programs under Article 19(1)(a)(i) — business start-up aid for young farmers of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013.

    Manager of the agricultural holding

    Manager of the agricultural holding is the natural person responsible for the normal daily financial and production activities of the agricultural holding.

    Farm work is considered as every type of work on the agricultural holding which contributes to either:

    (i)

    the activities defined in Article 2 a) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1091

    (ii)

    maintaining the means of production; or

    (iii)

    the activities directly derived from these productive actions.

    The time spent on farm work on the agricultural holding is the working time actually devoted to farm work for the agricultural holding, excluding work in the households of the holder or manager.

    Annual work unit (AWU) is the full-time equivalent employment, i.e. the total hours worked divided by the average annual hours worked in full-time jobs in the country.

    Full-time means the minimum hours required by the national rules governing contracts of employment. If these do not state the number of annual hours then 1 800 hours is to be taken as the minimum figure (225 working days of eight hours per day).

    CGNR 016

    Year of birth

    The year of birth of the manager of the agricultural holding

    CGNR 017

    Percentage band of annual work units (6) of farm work carried out by the manager of the agricultural holding.

    CGNR 019

    Year when classified as manager of agricultural holding

    The year in which the manager of the agricultural holding took up this role

    CGNR 020

    Agricultural training of the manager

    The highest agricultural education level that was obtained by the manager:

     

    PRACT — only practical agricultural experience, if the manager's experience was acquired through practical work on an agricultural holding

     

    BASIC — basic agricultural training, if the manager took any training courses completed at a general agricultural college and/or an institution specialising in certain subjects (including horticulture, viticulture, sylviculture, pisciculture, veterinary science, agricultural technology and associated subjects); a completed agricultural apprenticeship is regarded as basic training

     

    FULL — full agricultural training, if the manager took any training course continuously for the equivalent of at least 2 years full-time training 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

    CGNR 021

    Vocational training undertaken by manager during the last 12 months

    If the manager took vocational training, a training measure or activity provided by a trainer or a training institution which has as its primary objective the acquisition of new skills related to the farm activities or activities related directly to the agricultural holding or the development and improvement of existing ones.

    Type of tenure of the UAA (in relation to the holder)

    The type of tenure depends on the situation on a reference day of the year of the survey.

    CGNR 022

    Farming on own land

    Hectares of utilised agricultural area farmed by the agricultural holding and held by the holder as a property or farmed by the holder acting as a usufructuary or heritable long-term leaseholder or under some other equivalent type of tenure.

    CGNR 023

    Hectares of utilised agricultural area rented by the agricultural holding 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. The utilised agricultural area is allocated to only one agricultural holding. If the utilised agricultural area is rented out to more than one agricultural holding during the reference year, it is normally allocated to the agricultural holding with which it is associated on the survey reference day or which used it for the longest period during the reference year.

    CGNR 024

    Share farming or other tenure modes

    Hectares of utilised agricultural area which is:

    a)

    Shared, meaning farmed in partnership by the landlord and the sharecropper under a written or an oral share-farming contract. The output (either economic or physical) of the share cropped area is shared between the two parties on an agreed basis.

    b)

    under other modes of tenure not covered elsewhere under the previous items.

    CGNR 025

    Common land

    Hectares of utilised agricultural area used by the agricultural holding but not belonging directly to it, i.e. on which common rights apply.

    CGNR 026

    CGNR 027

    Total UAA of the agricultural holding on which organic farming production methods are applied and certified according to national or European Union rules

    Hectares of the utilised agricultural area of the agricultural holding on which the production method applied is fully compliant with the principles of organic production at farm level, as set out in (i) Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 or Regulation (EU) 2018/848 or, where applicable, in the most recent legislation and (ii) the corresponding national implementing rules for certification of organic production.

    CGNR 028

    Total UAA of the agricultural holding that is under conversion to organic farming production methods to be certified according to national or European Union rules

    Hectares of the utilised agricultural area of the agricultural holding on which organic farming methods are applied during the transition from non-organic to organic production within a given period (‘conversion period’) as set out in (i) Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 or Regulation (EU) 2018/848 or, where applicable, in the most recent legislation and (ii) the corresponding national implementing rules for certification of organic production.

    CGNR 029

    Participation in other environmental certification schemes

    The agricultural holding participates in national or regional environmental certification schemes such as those referred to in Article 43 paragraphs 2 and 3(b) or in Annex IX of Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 establishing rules for direct payments to farmers under support schemes within the framework of the common agricultural policy (current certification schemes equivalent to the greening payment of CAP) and the application for a subsidy has been accepted.


    II.   VARIABLES OF LAND

    The total area of the agricultural holding consists of the utilised agricultural area (arable land, permanent grassland, permanent crops and kitchen gardens) and other farmland (unutilised agricultural land, wooded area and other land not elsewhere classified).

    The area to be collected for each item is known as the main area and refers to the physical area of the parcel(s), regardless of whether there was only one single crop or several crops during the crop year. In the case of annual crops, the main area corresponds to the sown area; in case of permanent crops the main area is the total planted area; in the case of successive crops, it corresponds to the area occupied by the main crop in the parcel during the year; in the case of simultaneous crops, it corresponds to the area where the crops co-exist. In this manner, each area is listed only once.

    The main crop is the one with the highest economic value. When it is not possible to determine what the main crop is on the basis of the production value, then the main crop will be the one which occupies the ground for the longest period of time.

    The utilised agricultural area is the total area taken up by arable land, permanent grassland, permanent crops and kitchen gardens used by the agricultural holding, regardless of the type of tenure.

    Crop rotation is the practice of alternating crops grown in a specific field in a planned pattern or sequence in successive crop years so that crops of the same species are not grown without interruption in the same field. In a crop rotation the crops are normally changed annually, but it is possible to have a crop rotation with multiannual crops.

    Open field and areas under glass are to be reported separately.
