 The EU Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) requires the Netherlands to
yearly send bookkeeping data of 1,500 farms to Brussels. This task is carried out by LEI and CEI. The data sent to Brussels mainly involves technical and financial economic information. For national policy purposes additional data is collected, such as pesticide use, manure production, nature management, nonfarm income and rural development. This report explains the background of the farm sample for the year 2007. The report mainly focuses on the Dutch contribution to the European Farm Accountancy Data Network. All phases from the determination of the selection plan, the recruitment of farms to the quality control of the final sample are described in this report.
