The classification of farm types has 4 levels. Within a level, a holding is considered as specialised if one enterprise amounts to more than 2/3 of the total agricultural production. Otherwise, the holding is considered as mixed. EU has established the classification of holdings by type of farming, based on standard gross margin as common measurement for the different crop and livestock enterprises. The classification is used by all EU/EEA countries. The Norwegian Agricultural Economics Research Institute is calculating the Norwegian standard gross margins. |
