Utilised agricultural area by categories
<p>Utilised agricultural area is the main area used for farming and it includes the following land categories: arable land, permanent grassland, permanent crops and kitchen gardens used by the holdings, regardless of the type of tenure or whether it is used as common land. Unused agricultural land, woodland and land occupied by buildings, farmyards, tracks, ponds, etc. are excluded.</p><p>The concept of "main area", that means the area of the land parcel, applies. In case of annual crops, the main area corresponds to the sown area; in the case of permanent crops, to the total planted area; in the case of successive crops, to the main crop that occupied the parcel during that year; and in the case of simultaneous crops, to the corresponding area of the different crops.</p>
