Standard Output Coefficients for Swiss Agriculture

From 2010, standard output is used to classify farms within the framework of the Farm Accountancy Data Network of the European Union. As a monetary variable, standard output describes the average monetary value of agricultural production at producer prices. To make it still possible to compare the accountancy results of Swiss agriculture with those of the EU countries, the concept of standard output must be applied to Swiss farms. The calculation of the standard output coefficients form the basis for this conversion.
