(4) Agricultural holdings sustainability is assessed in the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, along three main aspects: economic, environmental and social. Data are currently collected mainly to assess economic aspects of agricultural holdings, while there is a need that an overall sustainability of the holding is assessed including environmental data linked to soil, air, water and biodiversity, as well as data covering the social dimension of farming with particular attention given to the situation of women as farmers and farm workers and young farmers and farm workers. Moreover, it is necessary to collect harmonised data and to avoid duplication of data already collected, for example, through statistics on agricultural input and output or the CAP. The conversion to FSDN will enable the benchmarking of farm performance against regional, national and sectorial averages. Regarding accountancy data, accounts of agricultural holdings constitute the basic source for any assessment of incomes on agricultural holdings or study of their business operation. The information collected may also be used to provide personalised advisory services and feedback to farmers with the aim to improve the agricultural holdings’ sustainability.

(8) In case individual data will be shared by the Commission or liaison agencies, it is of utmost importance to guarantee data protection and give assurance to farmers that their data and all other individual details obtained pursuant to this Regulation will be anonymised or pseudonymised to avoid their identification, covering both natural and legal persons.

It should be provided for that access to this data may be provided only to the competent authorities in specific cases and in accordance with international, Union and national law.

(10) All necessary measures should be taken to avoid de-anonymisation and de- pseudonymisation but it may occur that data could be disclosed due to additional research and data disclosure outside the control of the Commission. In such cases, data should be considered as personal data and Regulations (EU) 2016/67928 and (EU) 2018/172529 of the European Parliament and of the Council should apply. Data are collected concerning agricultural holdings, without regard to ownership of natural or legal persons. Therefore, data protection guarantees should be extended to legal persons. Further, as the development, production and dissemination of European statistics is concerned, principles of Regulation (EC) 223/200930 should be complied with. _________________ 28 Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) (OJ L 119, 4.5.2016, p. 1). 29 Regulation (EU) 2018/1725 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2018 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data by the Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 and Decision No 1247/2002/EC (OJ L 295, 21.11.2018, p. 39). 30 Regulation (EC) No 223/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2009 on European statistics and repealing Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1101/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the transmission of data subject to statistical confidentiality to the Statistical Office of the European Communities, Council Regulation (EC) No 322/97 on Community Statistics, and Council Decision 89/382/EEC, Euratom establishing a Committee on the Statistical Programmes of the European Communities (OJ L 87, 31.3.2009, p. 164).

(14) Considering that somemany Member States do not face problems with farmers’ participation in the data network, some of them already included thFADN and taking into account the increased quantity of data to be collected in the future FASDN system under national statistics which provide an obligation for farmers to provide the requested information, the voluntary nature of participation of the farmers in the future FSDN should be maintained. When selected as returning holding, farmers should do their best to provide the data; i. It should be possible for the Member States to adopt national rules to address cases of returning holdings not complying with such an obligationfacilitate the collection of the requested data.
