Agricultural production equals the sum value of outputs of crops, animals, animal products, agricultural services and the value of inseparable non-agricultural secondary activities.

Crop production includes the production of cereals, industrial crops, fodder, horticultural products, fruits, vegetables and other unspecified agricultural products.

Output of livestock production includes the production and products of livestock, poultry and other animals.

Production of agricultural products includes the production of milk, eggs and other unspecified agricultural products.

The accounting period is a calendar year.
The agricultural production is valuated at basic prices, which means that all subsidies on products and services are included and all taxes on products and services are excluded.

Agricultural goods and services consist of agricultural value of production of all agricultural goods (crop and animal production) and agricultural services.

Inseparable non-agricultural secondary activities are activities that cannot be separated from main activities and should be conducted on a farm (processing of milk, grapes, olives, fruits and vegetables).

Intermediate consumption is the value of inputs used for agricultural production. It is valuated at purchase prices.

Gross value added at basic prices equals the agricultural production at basic prices less intermediate consumption at purchase prices.

Fixed capital consumption is the value of depreciation of fixed capital goods as a result of normal wear and tear in the course of the production process.

Net value added at basic prices equals the gross value added at basic prices less fixed capital consumption.

Compensation of employees is defined as a total remuneration, in cash or in kind, during the period of one year.

Other subsidies on production are payments (other than subsidies on products) mainly intended for the assumption of production costs or support for changes in the method of production.

Factor income equals net value added less taxes on production plus other subsidies on production.

Net operating surplus/mixed income equals the factor income less compensations of employees.

Net entrepreneurial income equals the net operating surplus/net mixed income less paid rents and interest plus received interest that refers exclusively to agricultural production.

Gross fixed capital formation is the value of newly acquired assets in a current year, which can be used for more than one year in the process of agricultural production and can originate from domestic production and from import (in the case of import, it can also refer to used assets).

Agricultural labour input comprises all persons and employees who work as salaried or non-salaried labour force on typical agricultural jobs in agricultural industry. It is measured by annual work units. The annual work unit is a quotient of a total number of working hours done in the agricultural activity during a year and an average number of working hours, which amounts to 1 800 hours per annum for paid work.
