1: Total results of the Agricultural Census 2010, 2020 and Farm Structure Survey 2016. 2: Representative results with a sample of 80,000 survey units. 3: Including seed production. 4: Captured from 2016. 5: Hops, tobacco, medicinal and culinary plants, hemp, flax, kenaf, miscanthus, chicory and other. 6: Including yellow ripeness. Used for forage, fermentation production and so on. 7: Until 2016 including unutilised agricultural land. A: = Error class A of the relative standard error to under ± 2 per cent. B: = Error class B of the relative standard error ± 2 to under ± 5 per cent. C: = Error class C of the relative standard error ± 5 to under ± 10 per cent. . = No clear error class displayed (sum position).
