World Programme for the Census of Agriculture

Status of world censuses of agriculture

Country participation by round

Results by country are aimed at disseminating main National Agricultural Census Results referring to the 1980, 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2020 rounds. Relevant information about Size and Fragmentation of Holding, Legal Status of Holders, Land Tenure, Farm Population, Employment, Land Use, Crops and main Livestock species is reported.

The purpose of issuing the census results is to make the census data contained in national census reports of diverse forms and languages more accessible in a comparable form, as soon as they become available. Generally the terminology used is that of the Programme for the WCA, unless it was found necessary to use the one adopted by the country.

The country data are the principal findings of the census; more detailed information can be found in the national census reports. Specific questions can be addressed to the National Statistical Offices responsible for the census data and publication.
