What is the difference between the Farm Structure Survey (IEEA) and the Agricultural Census (RA)?



Reply
The Agricultural Census gathers data from all agricultural holdings, whereas the IEEA is a survey to a representative range of those units (sample). EU legislation (Regulation (EC) No 1166/2008) establishes that 2 IEEA will be conducted after the 2009 Agricultural Census. The main objectives of the IEEA are:
- to update knowledge of the structure of agricultural holdings and assess their evolution as of the last Agricultural Census;
- to inform on developments in agricultural production systems, agricultural population and employed labour force.
