Labour force
Farm labour force in the European Union (EU) is difficult to describe because agriculture is still dominated by family farms, where family members provide labour input at different times of the year, not always in a regular manner. Family members contributing to farm work do not always receive a salary but rather participate in the profit made by the holding. Many farmers and farm workers pursue agriculture as a part-time activity and agriculture is characterised by seasonal labour peaks, where large numbers of workers may be hired for a relatively short period of time. The most commonly used sources of statistical data on labour use in EU agriculture are the national accounts (NA), the farm structure survey (FSS) and the labour force survey (LFS). The farm structure data is used when a detailed analysis of the farm labour force is needed. Labour force data in IFS is provided in number of persons in different categories by gender, age class (holder and manager only) and the work time on the holding. Work time is assessed in annual work units (AWU) due to the high share of part-time work in agriculture. However the details of the information vary by survey year, country and legal personality of the holding.
Labour force on the agricultural holding
Labour force on the agricultural holding includes all persons having completed their compulsory education (having reached school-leaving age) who carried out farm work on the agricultural holding during the 12 months ending on the reference day of the survey. All persons of retirement age who continue to work on the agricultural holding are also included in the farm labour force.
Age of compulsory education
If national legislation does not indicate the minimum age of full-time and part-time compulsory education, 15 years is to be taken as the conventional school-leaving age.

The observation period for the farm labour force may be less than 12 months, but the information to be provided has to be given on a 12-month basis. The labour force on the holding is separated into farm labour force and labour force that is not directly employed by the holding.
Figure 36 – Labour force categories
Note. * denotes that FLF_D_RFAM_M_PC and FLF_D_RFAM_F_PC exclude the sole holder.
Farm labour force on the holding
The term farm labour force refers to direct labour force i.e. persons directly employed by the holding. Within the farm labour force on the holding, we distinguish the work of the manager, the work of the holder and their family members and non-family labour force directly employed by the holding (which is either regularly employed or non-regularly employed). The distinction between family workers and employees does not follow the guidelines used in the Labour Force Survey nor in the Economic Accounts for Agriculture. In the Economic Accounts for Agriculture, if a family member receives a salary, they are considered as salaried, if not they are considered self-employed (non-salaried).
Manager labour input
The information for the farm work of the manager is to be collected under the core variables. Note that for the collection of other gainful activities, in the context of the IFS, if the manager is a member of the holder's family, then they are considered to be family labour force. Otherwise, the manager is considered to be non-family labour force regularly working on the holding (see Figure 38).
Holder labour input
Sole holders who do not carry out farm work on the holding are recorded in the survey, but are not counted for the labour input variables.
Family members carrying out farm work
This item refers to the family members of the holder (and of the holder's spouse) on sole holder holdings carrying out farm work. This item applies only to sole holder holdings, because holding-groups and legal persons are considered not to have family labour force. Family members carrying out farm work (apart from housework) include holder's spouse, their relatives in ascending and descending line, and siblings of the holder and holder's spouse on sole holder holdings. When relevant, includes the manager who is a member of the holder's family. They do not need necessarily to live on the holding. Other relatives (e.g. cousins being engaged in the farm work) could also be included if they are living and working at the agricultural holding together with the family of the manager, or as mentioned above for the labour force survey "have common household interests". In the context of IFS, holding-groups are considered not to have family labour force. As a consequence for holding-groups, data on family members who work regularly for the farm are attributed to non-family labour regularly employed, regardless of their family relation to the manager.
Labour force directly employed by the holding
Labour force regularly employed
Regularly employed labour force refers to persons other than the manager, the holder and family members who carried out farm work every week on the holding during the 12 months ending on the reference day of the survey, irrespective of length of the working week and whether they received any kind of remuneration (salary, wages, profits or other payments, including payments in kind) from the agricultural holding. It also includes persons that were not able to work for the entire period, for reasons such as:
- special conditions of production on specialised holdings;
- absence by reason of holidays, military service, sickness, accident or death;
- commencement or cessation of employment with the holding;
- complete stoppage of work on the holding due to accidental causes (flooding, fire, etc.)
Non-family labour force employed on a non-regular basis
Non-family labour employed on a non-regular basis are all persons other than the holder and members of his family doing farm work and receiving any kind of remuneration from the agricultural holding who did not work each week on the agricultural holding in the 12 months ending on the reference day of the survey for a reason other than those listed under labour force regularly employed. This category usually covers seasonal work that depends on the natural development of the crops or animals.
Labour force not directly employed by the holding
Persons working on the holding but employed by a third party or under mutual-aid arrangements (e.g. labour supplied by agricultural contractors or cooperatives) are not included in the farm labour force and should be considered only for the labour force not directly employed by the holding.
Labour force not directly employed
Farm labour force not directly employed by the holding refers to the persons who are not directly employed by the agricultural holding, but are self-employed or employed by third parties, e.g. contractors or cooperatives. Activities being collected in IFS under farm labour force not directly employed by the holding are only those that correspond to the definition of farm work.

Other gainful activities
Other gainful activity refers to:
- other gainful activities directly related to the holding
- on the holding, such as tourism, handicraft, processing of farm products or forestry
- out of the holding, such as agricultural and non-agricultural contractual work
- other gainful activities not related to the holding
- on the holding (non-farm work on the holding)
- out of the holding, such as working in a bank or teaching
If only the farm labour force (family and non-family) and no other resources of the holding are used for the other gainful activities, the workers are seen as working under two separate arrangements, and these other gainful activities are thus not seen as being directly related to the holding. Information on other gainful activities directly related to the holding is recorded for:
- the holders of sole holder holdings and holding-groups
- the family members in sole holder holdings
- non-family labour force regularly working on the farm
Information on other gainful activities not directly related to the holding is recorded for
- the holders who are also the managers of sole-holder holdings
- the family members (when the sole holder is the manager of the agricultural holding) in sole holder holdings
No information on other gainful activities is collected for legal holdings.
Main activity and secondary activity
Other gainful activities can be performed as a main or a secondary activity.
Main activity
Activities which occupy equal or more time than the farm work done for the holding.
Secondary activity
Activities which occupy less time than the farm work done for the holding.
Figure 38 – Other gainful activities in the agricultural holding: main vs. secondary
Minimum level of farm work or of other gainful activities directly related to the farm
The minimum level can be interpreted as the input of a person who was replaced, or if they would need to be replaced if they would stop or interrupt her activity. For example, if the farmer's son helps with the farm work from time to time, but has to interrupt to go to university and the farmer would need to hire another person to carry out the work, then the information on the other gainful activities of the son has to be recorded. The threshold to exclude a family member from the data collection on other gainful activities not directly related to the holding can be approximately one month of work, either continuously or distributed throughout the year.

Types of other gainful activities directly related to the agricultural holding
In general terms, other gainful activities should be collected when the activity is of considerable economic importance for a significant number of agricultural holdings. Furthermore, other gainful activities directly related to the holding are activities (other than farm work) should meet the following two conditions:
(i) either the resources of the agricultural holding (land, area, buildings, machinery, etc.) or its products are used in the activity;
(ii) the activity generates an income for farmers.
Non-agricultural, as well as agricultural work for other agricultural holdings is included. Pure financial investments (such as mutual funds, fixed deposits, bonds, equities, real estate, precious stones or other asset where money is invested with the hope that it will appreciate into a larger sum of money) are excluded. Renting of the land for diverse activities can be applicable, but only if the condition (ii) is satisfied.

- All tourism related activities
- Showing the holding to tourists or other groups
- Sport and recreation activities
- Activities that use mainly buildings originally built for agricultural purposes
Activities which use mainly buildings originally built for other than agricultural purposes when they improve other activities already available on the holding
Excludes
- Activities which use mainly buildings originally built for other than agricultural purposes and which do not improve other activities already available on the holding (for example a new building for a camping), as these are considered a separate commercial activity already available on the holding

Presence of any processing of a primary agricultural product to a processed secondary product on the holding, regardless of whether the raw material is produced on the holding or bought from outside.
- 1 - Yes
0 - No
Includes
- Processing of a primary agricultural product to a secondary product on the holding, regardless whether the raw material is produced on the holding or bought from the outside.
- The sale of farm products directly to the consumers where the processing of the product is taking place on the holding
- The package of the products where it significantly increases the marketing possibilities (if it is not a standard marketing characteristic in the region)
- Processing of meat
- Making cheese
- Wine processing if the bought-in proportion of wine is significant
Olive oil processing if the bought-in proportion of olive oil is significant
Excludes
- Sale of farm products directly to consumers, where the processing of the product is not taking place on the holding as this is considered a farm activity

- Sale of surplus of farm products originally meant for self-consumption only
- Activities which are regarded as part of the agricultural activity, such as wine processing or olive oil production when the bought-in part of wine or olive oil is not significant.| According to the FADN manual (RI CC1680), all processing of farm products are considered as other gainful activities, unless the processing is regarded as part of the agricultural activity. Wine processing and olive oil production are considered as agriculture unless the bought-in proportion of wine or olive oil is significant, in which case they become OGA. All processing of a primary agricultural product to a processed secondary product on the holding, regardless of whether the raw material is produced on the holding or bought from outside are considered as OGA. The same manual states that the processing of wine products will be considered as an agricultural activity as long as it is mainly based on grapes from the farm with rules agreed and summarised in paragraphs below (this approach between agricultural activity vs. OGA was presented to and accepted by MS in the 185th FADN Committee Meeting. Reference document RI CC 1662):
- Processing wine and olive oil is considered as an agricultural activity unless the bought-in proportion of wine or olive oil is significant. The significant level is defined as 10% or higher share in value
- The 10% ceiling for wine and olive oil production would apply for the normal situation and in exceptional circumstances a higher share of purchased products is allowed. In duly justified case and at the request of a Member State, the Commission services may authorise exception from the 10% ceiling when in a specific area it is a common practice to purchase a larger share of products. The share of purchased inputs may not exceed 33%
- For wine and olive oil production, if the share of grapes andor olives purchased to incorporate into further processing into wine or olive oil is 10% or more (in value), this activity is not considered as an agricultural activity but as an OGA directly related to the farm
Production of renewable energy (OGA_NRGRPRD)
Presence of production of renewable energy for the market including biogas, biofuels or electricity, by wind turbines, other equipment or from agricultural raw materials. Renewable energy produced only for the holding's own use is not included.
