report provides preliminary results for the yield per hectare and total production
of cereals, dried pulses and oilseeds for the year 2012. The results are presented for counties, production areas
and for all of
Cereals, dried pulses and oilseed crops
Total production of cereal crops for the whole country is estimated at 5 095 300 tonnes. This is 10 % more than 2011 and 4 % more than the average for the last five years.
The total production of winter wheat is estimated at 1 955 700 tonnes. This is equivalent to 38 % of the total production of cereal crops.
Total production of peas is estimated at 34 800 tonnes, which is 19 % less than in the previous year. The total production of field beans (Vicia faba L.) is estimated at 57 600 tonnes.
The 2012 harvest of rape and turnip rape is estimated at 322 500 tonnes. This is 29 % more than in 2011 and 23% more than the average for the last five years. The total production of oil flax is estimated at 12 500 tonnes.
Since 1998, statistics on crop yields for cereals, dried pulses and oilseed crops have been based on an interview survey. Since 2005, the farmers can also use the Internet as a tool for data provision to Statistics Sweden.
The sample of the survey of 2012 consists of 4 377 survey units. The selected farms are a random sample from throughout the country. The survey was carried out in October and November. Information was requested for total farm production in tonnes of these crops and their average moisture content. Yields per hectare at farm level are calculated by dividing the total production by the crop areas of the farm. The total production is calculated from data on yield per hectare; area statistics are calculated from preliminary data on usage of arable land in 2012. These area data are based on figures from the administrative database for agricultural subsidies, IACS. Crop areas cut as green fodder have been excluded. The statistics on yields correspond with yield per hectare of sown areas minus areas cut as green fodder. Yields per hectare on harvested areas are not published. Unharvested areas and areas cut as green fodder are presented in separate tables.
The tables show the number of observations, yield per hectare in kg, total production in metric tonnes and crop areas. Standard errors are given for the yield per hectare and total production.
