Farm inputs (costs in cash and in kind, and quantities of selected inputs) relate to the ‘consumption’ of productive resources (including farm use of own produced inputs) corresponding to the output of the farm during the accounting year or to the ‘consumption’ of those resources during the accounting year. When certain use relates partly to private use and partly to farm use (e.g. electricity, water, heating fuels and engine fuels, etc.) only the latter part should be included in the farm return. The proportion of the use of private cars corresponding to their use for farm purposes should also be included.

In calculating costs relating to the output of the accounting year the purchases and farm use during the year should be adjusted for valuation changes (including changes in cultivations). For each item the total of costs paid for and the value of the farm use should be recorded separately.

Where the costs indicated are for the total ‘consumption’ of inputs during the accounting year but do not correspond to production during that year, changes in stocks of inputs should be indicated in Table D under the code 1040 Inventories, except for costs accruing to growing permanent and standing crops which should be registered to 2010 Biological assets — plants.

When the holding's production resources (paid or unpaid labour, machinery or equipment) are used to increase fixed assets (construction or major repairs of machinery, construction, major repairs or even demolition of buildings, planting or felling of fruit trees), the corresponding costs — or an estimate thereof — are not to be included in the working costs of the holding. In any case, labour costs and hours worked to produce fixed assets are to be excluded from both costs and data on labour. In exceptional cases, if certain costs (other than labour costs) used to produce fixed assets cannot be calculated separately (e.g. use of the holding's tractor) and if these expenses are then included under costs, an estimate of all these costs used to produce fixed assets is to be entered in Table I ‘Crops’ with the category of crop code 90900 (‘Other’).

The costs relating to ‘consumption’ of capital assets are represented by depreciation, hence expenditure on acquisition of capital assets should not be treated as a farm cost. For instructions on depreciation see in Table D ‘Assets’.

Expenditure on cost items compensated during the accounting year or later (e.g. repairs to a tractor as a result of an accident covered by an insurance policy or by a third party liability) should not be entered as farm costs, and the corresponding receipts should not be included in the farm's accounts.

Receipts from resale of purchased supplies are to be deducted from corresponding inputs.

Grants and subsidies related to costs are not deducted from the corresponding cost items but are entered under appropriate codes 4100 to 4900 in table M ‘Subsidies’ (see instructions regarding those codes). Investment grants and subsidies are shown in table D ‘Assets’.

Costs also include any expenditure on purchases relating to each cost item.

Inputs are classified as follows:

1010.   Wages and social security costs for paid labour

This item includes the following:

  • — salaries and wages actually paid in cash to wage earners irrespective of the basis of remuneration (piecework or by the hour), with deduction of any social allowances paid to the holder as employer to offset the payment of a salary which does not correspond to actual work done (e.g. absence from work due to an accident, vocational training, etc.),
  • — salaries and wages in kind (e.g. lodging, board, housing, farm produce, etc.),
  • — bonuses for productivity or qualifications, gifts, gratuities, share of profits,
  • — other expenditure associated with labour (recruitment expenses),
  • — social security payments incumbent upon the employer and those paid by him on behalf of and instead of the employee,
  • — occupational accident insurance.

The holder's personal social security charges and insurance and those of unpaid labour should not be regarded as farm costs.

The amounts received by unpaid workers (which by definition are lower than a normal wage — see definition of unpaid labour) should not appear in the farm return.

Allowances (in cash or in kind) paid to retired paid workers no longer employed on the holding should not be entered under this item but under the code ‘Other farming overheads’.

1020.   Contract work and machinery hire

This item includes the following:

  • — total expenditure in respect of work on the farm carried out by agricultural contractors. This generally includes the cost of the use of equipment (including fuel) and the work. In case the cost of the materials employed other than fuel (i.e. crop protection products, fertilisers and seeds) is also included in the contract, the cost of these materials should be excluded. This amount (if necessary by estimation) should be entered under the corresponding cost item (e.g. pesticides to be recorded under code 3040 ‘Crop protection products’),
  • — cost of hiring machines operated by the farm's labour. The fuel costs related to the use of the rented machinery, should be recorded under code 1040 ‘Motor fuels and lubricants’,
  • — cost of leasing machines operated by the farm's labour. The fuel and maintenance costs of leased machines should be recorded under the relevant codes (codes 1030 ‘Current upkeep of machinery and equipment’ and 1040 ‘Motor fuels and lubricants’).
1030.   Current upkeep of machinery and equipment

Cost of upkeep of machinery and equipment and of minor repairs not affecting the market value of the appliances (payment of mechanic, cost of replacement parts, etc.).

This item includes purchases of minor equipment, the cost of saddlery and horse shoeing, the purchase of tyres, forcing frames, protective clothing for unsanitary work, detergents for the cleaning of equipment in general, and the proportion of the cost of private cars corresponding to their use for farm purposes (see also code 1050 ). Detergents used for cleaning livestock equipment (e.g. milking machines) are entered under code 2090 ‘Other specific livestock costs’.

Major repairs which increase the value of equipment, compared with its value before repairs, are not included under this code (see also instructions on depreciation in Table D ‘Assets’).

1040.   Motor fuels and lubricants

This item also includes the proportion of fuel and lubricant costs for private cars corresponding to their use for farm purposes (see also code 1050 ).

Where the products are employed both as motor fuels and as heating fuels, the total sum is divided into two codes:

    1. ‘Motor fuels and lubricants’.
    1. ‘Heating fuels’.
1050.   Car expenses

Where the farm proportion of expenditure on private cars is calculated arbitrarily (e.g. a fixed amount per km), these costs are indicated under this code.

Feedstuffs

Used feedstuffs are divided into those purchased and those produced on the farm.

The purchased feedstuffs include mineral licks, milk products (bought or returned to the farm) and products for the preservation and storage of feedstuffs, as well as the expenditure on agistment, on the use of common pasture and grazing land not included in the UAA and on renting forage land not included in the UAA. Purchased litter and straw are also included with purchased feedstuffs.

Feedstuffs purchased for grazing stock are subdivided into concentrated feedstuffs and coarse fodder (including agistments and expenditure on the use of common pastures, grazing land and forage land not included in the UAA, and purchased litter and straw).

The code 2010 ‘Purchased concentrated feedstuffs for grazing stock (equines, ruminants)’ includes in particular oilcakes, compound feeds, cereals, dried grass, dried sugar beet pulp, fish meal, milk and dairy products, minerals and products for the preservation and storage of such feedstuffs.

Expenditure on work carried out by agricultural contractors for the production of coarse fodder, e.g. silage, is entered under code 1020 ‘Contract work and machinery hire’.

Feedstuffs produced and used on the farm include saleable farm products used as feedstuffs (including milk and milk products but excluding milk suckled by calves, which is not taken into account). Litter and straw produced on the holding are only included if they are a saleable product in the region and year in question.

The following breakdown is to be given:

  • — Purchased feedstuffs: 2010. Purchased concentrated feedstuffs for grazing stock (equines, ruminants) 2020. Purchased coarse fodder for grazing stock (equines, ruminants) 2030. Purchased feedstuffs for pigs 2040. Purchased feedstuffs for poultry and other small animals
  • — Farm-produced feedstuffs used on farms: 2050. Farm-produced feedstuffs for grazing stock (equines, ruminants) 2060. Farm-produced feedstuffs for pigs 2070. Farm-produced feedstuffs for poultry and other small animals

The content of the table is defined by selecting a category of crop code, the type of crop code and the missing data code.

Detailed information concerning potatoes (codes 10310 , 10390 ), fresh vegetables, melons and strawberries (codes 10731 , 10732 , 10733 , 10734 , 10735 , 10736 , 10737 , 10738 , 10739 , 10790 ), flowers and ornamental plants (codes 10830 , 10840 , 10850 ) and crop by-products other than from olives and vine (codes 90310 , 90320 , 90330 ) has to be provided only if the data is available in the farm accounts.

GROUPS OF INFORMATION IN TABLE I

Table I has seven rows containing the following groups of information: area (A), opening valuation (OV), closing valuation (CV), production (PR), sales (SA), farm household consumption and benefits in kind (FC) and farm use (FU).

Table I has six columns where for each crop, namely: the total area (TA), the area which is irrigated (IR), the area which is used for energy crops (EN), the area which is used for the production of GMO crops (GM), the quantity of production and sales (Q) and the value (V) are to be recorded. In the following it is described for each group of information which columns have to be completed:

I.A   Area

For the group of information area (A), the total area (TA), the area which is irrigated (IR), the area which is used for energy crops (EN) and the area which is used for the production of GMO crops (GM) are to be recorded. In each case the area is to be given in ares (100 ares = 1 hectare), except in the case of land used for mushroom growing which is given in square metres.

I.OV   Opening valuation

For the group of information opening valuation (OV), the value (V) of products in stock (storage) at the beginning of the accounting year is to be recorded. The products should be valued at farm-gate prices on the day of valuation.

I.CV   Closing valuation

For the group of information closing valuation (CV), the value (V) of products in stock (storage) at the end of the accounting year is to be recorded. The products should be valued at farm-gate prices on the day of valuation.

I.PR   Production

For the group of information production (PR) the quantities of crops produced (Q) during the accounting year (excluding any losses in the field and at the farm) are to be recorded. These quantities are indicated for the principal products of the holding (except by-products).

These quantities should be indicated in quintals (100 kg) with the exemption of wine and wine-related products, which are expressed in hectolitres. When, because of the conditions of sale, actual production in quintals cannot be determined, the missing data code 2 should be entered.

For the 10790 ‘Other vegetables’ and 90900 ‘Other’, the quantity should not be provided.

I.SA   Total sales

For the group of information total sales (SA) the quantity of sales (Q) and the value of sales (V) of products in stock at the start of the accounting year or harvested during the year are to be recorded. When marketing costs, if any, are known, they are not deducted from the sales total, but should be recorded in table H ‘Inputs’.

I.FC   Farm household consumption and benefits in kind

For the group of information farm household consumption and benefits in kind (FC) the value (V) of the products consumed by the holder's household and/or used for payments in kind for goods and services (including remuneration in kind) are to be recorded. The products in question are valued at farm-gate prices.

I.FU   Farm use

For the group of information farm use (FU) the farm-gate value (V) of the holding's products in stock (storage) at the beginning of the accounting year and/or produced during the year, used as inputs on the holding during the year are to be recorded. This includes:

  • — animal feed: the farm-gate value of the holding's saleable products (products which are currently marketable) used during the year as animal feed. The holding's straw used on the farm (as fodder and bedding) is valued only when it is a saleable product in the region and for the year under consideration.

GROUPS OF INFORMATION IN TABLE J
J.AN.   Average number (to be recorded for column A only)

Each unit refers to the presence of one animal on the holding for one year. Animals are counted in proportion to the length of time they have been on the holding during the accounting year.

The average number is determined either by means of periodical inventories or by the recording of arrivals and departures. It includes all animals present on the holding, also animals raised or fattened under contract (animals not belonging to the holding, which are raised or fattened there in such a manner that the activity merely constitutes a service rendered by the holder, who does not assume the financial risk normally associated with the rearing or fattening of such animals) and animals taken or given into agistment for the period of the year during which they are present on the holding.

Average Number (column A)

The average number is expressed to two decimal places.

This information should not be provided for the other animals (category 900).

J.RN.   Reference number (to be recorded for column N only)

The reference number is the number of animals typically present on the farm at a given moment. It is used to calculate the standard output of the holding and its economic size.
