Now you have come to the page, Choose variable. This page give you the oportunity to select which variables and values you want to display in your result of the table. A variable is a property of a statistical unit. The page is divided into several boxes, one for each variable, where you can select values by click to highlight one or more values. It always starts with the statistics variable which is the main value counted in the table.

Number of selected data cells are:
(maximum number allowed is 100,000)

Presentation on screen is limited to 1,000 rows and 50 columns

Number of selected cells exceeds the maximum allowed 100,000
In some cases there are values for all subgroups of a crop but no total is reported. This is due to the regulation governing the data to be sent to Eurostat. In many cases, subsets are mandatory but not totals. If non-mandatory totals are sent in they are reported, otherwise the total is marked with .. (not available). This means that the accounts for one and the same country can vary over time, depending on what they choose to report each year. See the regulation annex, Table 1 PART B, for information on what applies to each type of crop. If there are values for all sub-groups of a crop they can be summed for a correct total.

No data available for Greenland or Faroe Islands.

Object: Land parcel cultivated for the production of a crop.

Target population: All area cultivated with crops.

crops

Crops classified according to Regulation (EC) No 543/2009, Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/1557 and the ESS agreement.
In EU standard humidity.

reporting country

Finland

Includes Åland.

Åland

Data from Åland is also included in the data from Finland.

Data for Åland is obtained from a different matrix at Eurostat than data for the other countries. This matrix has a slightly longer production time.

EU

European Union - 27 countries (from 2020).

area

Main area

The concept of 'main area' corresponds, in general, to the area of the land parcel. The crop/occupation linked to that area is the unique or main crop having occupied the parcel during the crop year. In the case of annual crops, the main area should correspond to the sown area. For permanent crops it refers to the total planted area (including non-productive plants). In the case of successive crops (mostly vegetables) it refers to the main crop that occupied the parcel during that year. These special cases are described in detail in the Annual Crop Statistics Handbook found at Eurostat.

Measure: Sums of main areas of land parcels cultivated with crops.

Area (cultivation/harvested/production)

For cereals, dry pulses, root crops, industrial crops and plants harvested green the areas refer to the area under cultivation. Area under cultivation means the area that corresponds to the total sown area, but after the harvest it excludes ruined areas (e.g. due to natural disasters). If the same land parcel is used twice in the same year, the area of this parcel can be counted twice.

For vegetables the area refers to the harvested area. For many vegetables the cropping time is short so the same area can be used several times per year. For this reason the harvested are can be much bigger than the physical area (main area).

For permanent crops the area refers to the production area. All non-productive areas are excluded (e.g. young non-productive plantations, abandoned areas, etc.).

Measure: Sums of areas (cultivation/harvested/production) of land parcels cultivated with crops.

crops

Arable land

Land worked (ploughed or tilled) regularly, generally under a system of crop rotation. Arable land is reported in 'Main area' only.

A Cereals to produce grain (including seed)

All cereals harvested dry for grain, regardless of use.

A.1 Wheat and spelt

Subgroup to A Cereals to produce grain (including seed)

A.2 Rye and winter cereal mixtures (Maslin)

Subgroup to A Cereals to produce grain (including seed)

A.3 Barley

Subgroup to A Cereals to produce grain (including seed)

A.4.1 Oats

Subgroup to A.4 Oats and spring cereal mixtures (mixed grain other than maslin)

A.4.2 Spring cereal mixtures (mixed grain other than Maslin)

Subgroup to A.4 Oats and spring cereal mixtures (mixed grain other than maslin)

Subgroup to A Cereals to produce grain (including seed)

A.7 Sorghum

Subgroup to A Cereals to produce grain (including seed)

A.8 Rice and Other cereals n.e.c. (buckwheat, millet, canary seed, etc.)

Subgroup to A Cereals to produce grain (including seed). Rice is included here as it is not grown in the Nordic countries.

B Dry pulses and protein crops to produce grain (including seed and mixtures of cereals and pulses)

Dried pulses and protein crops harvested dry for grain, regardless of use, (including dry pulses used for fodder, human consumption or renewable energy production).

C Root crops

Crops cultivated for their root, tuber or modified stem.

C.1 Potatoes (including seed potatoes)

Subgroup to C Root crops

C.2 Sugar beet (excluding seed)

Subgroup to C Root crops

C.3 Other root crops n.e.c.

Subgroup to C Root crops

D Industrial crops

Industrial crops, which are normally not sold directly for consumption because they need to be industrially processed prior to final use.

D.1 Oilseeds

Subgroup to D Industrial crops. Mainly Rape and turnip rape seeds and Linsseeds (oilflax) are grown in the Nordic countries.

D.2 Other industrial crops

Subgroup to D Industrial crops. Includes Fibre crops; Tobacco; Hops; Aromatic, medicinal and culinary plants; Energy crops n.e.c. and Other industrial crops n.e.c.

E Plants harvested green from arable land

All arable land crops harvested 'green' as whole plant and intended mainly for animal feed, forage or renewable energy production, namely cereals, grasses, leguminous or industrial crops and other arable land crops harvested and/or used green.

E.1 Temporary grasses and grazing's

Subgroup to E Plants harvested green from arable land

E.2 Leguminous plants harvested green

Subgroup to E Plants harvested green from arable land

F Fresh vegetables (including melons) and strawberries

All brassicas, leafy and stalked vegetables, vegetables cultivated for fruit, root, tuber and bulb vegetables, fresh pulses, other vegetables harvested fresh (not dry) and strawberries.

G Flowers and ornamental plants (excluding nurseries)

All flowers and ornamental plants intended to be sold as cut flowers, as potted, bedding and balcony flowers and plants and as bulb and corm flowers and other ornamental plants.

This crop is reported in 'Main area' only.

H Seeds and seedlings

Seeds of roots (except potatoes and other roots where the roots are as well used as seeds), fodder crops, grasses, industrial crops (except oilseeds) and seeds and seedlings of vegetables and flowers.

This crop is reported in 'Main area' only.

I Other arable land crops n.e.c.

This class includes only crops of low economic importance and contain only crops that cannot be classified under any other item.

This crop is reported in 'Main area' only.

Fallow land

Hectares of all arable land either included in the crop rotation system or maintained in good agricultural and environmental condition (GAEC), whether worked or not, but with no intention to produce a harvest for the duration of a crop year.

Fallow land is reported in 'Main area' only.

Permanent grassland

Land used permanently (for several consecutive years, normally 5 years or more) to grow herbaceous fodder, forage or energy purpose crops, through cultivation (sown) or naturally (self-seeded), and which is not included in the crop rotation on the holding.

Permanent grassland is not arable land.

Permanent grassland is reported in 'Main area' only.
