Coverage

Both core and module data cover the agricultural holdings accounting for at least 98% of the total utilised agricultural area (without kitchen gardens) and at least 98% of the total livestock units of the country.

The core data cover the agricultural holdings accounting for at least 98% of the total utilised agricultural area (without kitchen gardens) and at least 98% of the total livestock units of the country. 

While the module data do not meet these coverage requirements, the data coverage still complies with the minimum requirements of Regulation (EU) 2018/1091, which requires for modules only data on main frame.  

Both core and module data cover the agricultural holdings accounting for at least 98% of the total utilised agricultural area (without kitchen gardens) and at least 98% of the total livestock units of the country

Comparability between core and module data within the same country

+ within the country, the totals of core variables are computed on the same population scope as the totals of module variables, therefore, the totals of core and module variables can be interpreted in relation

-  within the country, the totals of core variables are computed on a larger  population scope than the totals of module variables, therefore, the totals of core and module variables cannot be interpreted in relation
