Details

PURPOSE: to amend Regulation (EU) 2018/1091 as regards the Union contribution to integrated farm statistics under the financial framework 2021-2027.

PROPOSED ACT: Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council.

ROLE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: the European Parliament decides in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure and on an equal footing with the Council.

BACKGROUND: Regulation (EU) 2018/1091 on integrated farm statistics requires Member States to carry out integrated farm surveys in 2020, 2023 and 2026. The Regulation contains a provision on the establishment of the budget for the collection of data for the surveys to be carried out in 2023 and 2026. It establishes the financial envelope for the entire duration of the relevant multiannual financial framework (MFF).

In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2018/1091, the amount of the Union contribution to integrated farm statistics under the MFF 2021-2027 should be fixed by the European Parliament and the Council, on a proposal from the Commission, once the MFF 2021-2027 has entered into force.

The proposal is part of the strategy for agricultural statistics for 2020 and beyond, a major programme to modernise EU agricultural statistics produced by the European Commission in close cooperation with the Member States. It aims to ensure the quality and comparability of European agricultural statistics collected and compiled according to the same principles in all Member States.

CONTENT: this proposal concerns the financing of integrated statistics on agricultural holdings for the period 2021-2027. It establishes a budget of EUR 40 million for the period 2021-2027 (of which EUR 36.4 million is for grants to national statistical institutes and other national authorities).

The amount proposed for 2021-2027 should finance the farm structure surveys conducted in 2023 and 2026 only, including the costs related to the management, maintenance and development of the databases used by the Commission to process the data supplied by Member States.

The EU's financial contribution for the grants should be provided by the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund.
