Table explanation
This table contains data at regional level on the number of persons employed on agricultural holdings, the corresponding annual work units (AWUs) and the number of holdings with workers.
The figures in this table are derived from the agricultural census. Data collection for the agricultural census is part of a combined data collection for a.o. agricultural policy use and enforcement of the manure law.
Regional breakdown is based on the main location of the holding. Due to this the region where activities (crops, animals) are allocated may differ from the location where these activities actually occur.
The agricultural census is also used as the basis for the European Farm Structure Survey (FSS). Data from the agricultural census do not fully coincide with the FSS. In the FSS years (2000, 2003, 2005, 2007 and 2010)
additional information was collected to meet the requirements of the FSS.
Data on labour force refer to the period April to March of the year preceding the agricultural census.
Data available from: 2000
Status of the figures: the 2025 figures are provisional; the other figures are final.
Changes as of November 28, 2025: the provisional 2025 figures have been added.
When will new figures be published?
According to regular planning provisional figures for the current year are published in November and the definite figures will follow in March of the following year.
