| Statistical presentation | |
| Data description | The data are developed in compliance with the Regulation (EU) 2022/2379 on SAIO adopted on 23.11.2022, in force from 1 January 2025. Thus achieving harmonization in the field of price statistics and indices in agriculture with the EU practice with regard of definitions, techniques of price registration, type of calculated indices, survey periodicity and classifications used. Two data sets are calculated: · Prices of goods and services currently consumed in agriculture (quarterly and annual); · Price Indices of goods and services currently consumed in agriculture (quarterly and annual). The purpose of the indices is to provide information about trends in purchase prices of products and services currently consumed in agriculture for comparisons between different products within a country or between Member States of the European Union, to compare trends in producer prices and the price of goods and services currently consumed in agriculture and for compilation of data on economic accounts for agriculture (as deflator for items of intermediate consumption in agriculture). |
| Classification system | Specific classifications of products and services currently consumed in agriculture are used. Classifications include representative products defined by their qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the following groups: · Fertilizers; · animal feeding stuffs; · plant protection products; · veterinary products; · planting stocks and seeds. |
| Sector coverage | The Price index (input) is based on purchases of products and services currently consumed in agriculture made by farm. |
| Statistical concepts and definitions | · Price of Goods and Services currently consumed in agriculture The goods and services currently consumed in agriculture are valued at purchase price, i.e. the price actually paid for the products. It includes taxes on products (excluding deductible taxes and VAT), but does not include subsidies on products. Information is collected within five surveys on prices of: fertilizers, animal feeding stuffs, plant protection products, veterinary products and planting stocks and seeds. For data collection on the prices of products and services currently consumed in agriculture representative products (most frequently purchased by agricultural holdings) are chosen, defined by their qualitative and quantitative characteristics. This way the lists with products for observation are build-up. Information is usually collected once in every five years, when the new base year appears. There is an exception for the products with great dynamics on the markets, the nomenclature of which is updated quarterly. In the second stage data on prices of the defined products is collected. According to the methodology the price of the largest purchase in quantity for each month of the reference period is taken into account. On the base of the collected prices not weighted average price of the product and simple and aggregate indices for the period are calculated. · Price Indices of Goods and Services currently consumed in agriculture The indices are calculated by the Laspeyre?s formula. It can be calculated for a period of several years without being necessary to alter the basket of representative products or the weights. Furthermore the parameters used for the calculation of the indices are well known at the time the base is established. Changes only need to be made when the evolution of the products used and of their relative importance have made the basic structure inappropriate. · Weighting scheme for the calculation of the indices. For the calculation of Price indices (Annex 2 of the Handbook) a weighting scheme should be available. Weights are calculated within the frame of the economic accounts for agriculture and they reflect the costs incurred by the farm to purchase products and services for current consumption, including purchases of plant products from other agricultural units for intermediate consumption. The weights remain the same for the four quarters (one/forth of the annual weight) for each product group. |

| Coherence - internal | Internal data consistency is ensured by monitoring the variation in the average price in comparison with the previous period.

If significant deviations are detected (+, -25% compared to the previous period) additional checks are made and sometimes extreme values are eliminated. |
| Cost and burden | |
The budget of the surveys is published in the National Statistical Programme on the NSI website. As basic criteria for response burden at this stage the time required for filling-in the questionnaire is used. Each form includes such section that respondents must complete. The time needed for filling-in the form includes also the time for data preparation. Based on this information, the burden on respondents can be defined as relatively high. In 2011, by order of the President of NSI a special thematic working group was established. It consists of representatives of several RSO and its aim is to review and suggest measures for improvement of statistical tools in the field of statistics, agriculture and forestry. One of the main objectives of this review was to reduce the burden on respondents. As a result of suggestions made by the TWG has taken the following actions: · further use of modern means for statistical data collection (introduction of on-line and off-line questionnaires); · reducing the number of parameters in the statistical questionnaires; · use of information from other sources. | |
