Description
The purpose of this evaluation is to assess the representativeness of the means, or estimates, derived from the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) by comparing them to the corresponding population averages and by providing associated precision measures.
This is achieved, first, by comparing FADN estimates to population averages for 2020 obtained from Integrated Farm Statistics (IFS). The population of interest for FADN includes farms that belong to IFS and have an economic size above a minimum threshold specified by each Member State. This Eurostat-FADN comparison focuses on three indicators: Utilised Agricultural Area (UAA) in hectares, Standard Output (SO) in euro, and Livestock Units (LU).
The dashboard also provides measures of precision of FADN estimates for a large number of FADN indicators. This precision assessment is based solely on FADN data and presents estimates from 2011 to 2020 at various levels of aggregation. Estimates account for the FADN sampling design, and standard errors are obtained using variance linearization techniques.
