The statistics are used, among other things, to convert countries' gross domestic product (GDP) into comparable figures and for analyses of expenditure levels. Denmark has participated in the work on purchasing power parities since the 1970s, but the statistics in their current form are comparable from 2000 onwards., Statistical presentation, Purchasing power parities (PPP) is an annual price level indicator which expresses the price level in a given country at a given time, relative to the price level in one or more countries. This means that PPP for a particular country indicate how many units of national currency are needed in that country to maintain the purchasing power of €1 in the EU. PPP can be calculated for individual products or aggregates, such as GDP., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Price surveys are conducted in order to provide price input data for household consumption, individual government consumption, collective consumption and gross fixed capital formation (investment goods and services). Reference (imputed) PPPs are used for NPISH consumption, inventories, and net exports., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The EU Commission uses GDP per capita PPP converted, as basis for allocating funds from the Structural Fund to reduce the financial inequalities among and within the 27 EU Member States. Furthermore, indicators derived from PPPs are used for a wide range of analytic purposes, often providing background information for policymaking in the European institutions, in international organizations like the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank, and in national governments., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, In the price surveys, the most important source of statistical margins of sampling errors is the range of goods and services, which are not equally representative of all countries included in the international comparisons. The composition of consumption expenditure differs among countries, and this gives rise to potential conflicts between representativeness and data comparability. For some areas, e.g. health it is particularly difficult to provide comparable information. The structure of the health sector differs among countries, and there are no "pure" market prices for these services, which constitutes another statistical margin of sampling error. The margins of sampling errors are not estimated., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, Provisional results from the surveys of purchasing power parities are published one year after the reference period, whereas the final results are published three years after the reference period. The statistics are usually published without any delay in relation to the scheduled date of publication., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, Purchasing power parities are compiled for the purpose of conducting price and volume comparisons for a specific year among countries. Consequently, they are comparable across the participating countries. Comparisons over time must be interpreted with caution, as the basket of goods and services differs from one year to another., In the calculation of PPP, price level index and volume index, the average of EU28 was used as a reference country (group of countries) until 2020. With the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union (EU), the EU27 (excluding the UK) = 100 will be used as a reference country (group of countries) from 2020. This has only a minor impact on the comparability of PPPs, the price level index and the volume index between 2019 and 2020. Results for 2024, published in December 2025 are presented in accordance with the new COICOP 2018 classification for product groups., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published annually in a Danish press release, at the same time as the tables are updated in the statbank.

Unemployment concepts

There are three different unemployment concepts – net unemployment, gross unemployment and LFS unemployment., Statistics Denmark regularly publishes two sets of unemployment statistics, which use different unemployment concepts and consequently result in different unemployment figures. The register-based unemployment statistics, which assess net unemployment and gross unemployment, and the interview-based Labour Force Survey (LFS), which assesses LFS unemployment. , Net unemployment covers recipients of unemployment benefits, cash benefits and student grants who are job-ready and not in job activation. The numbers are converted into ‘full-time equivalent (FTE) unemployed persons’. , In addition to net unemployment, gross unemployment also covers recipients of unemployment benefits, cash benefits and student grants who are job-ready and in job activation, including persons employed with wage subsidies, also converted into ‘FTE unemployed persons’. , LFS unemployment covers persons who indicate in the Labour Force Survey that they were not in employment during the week that the survey took place, , and, that they actively sought employment in the four weeks up to the week in which the survey took place, , and, that they were able to start a job within two weeks. , When to use which unemployment concept, In Denmark, gross unemployment is the most common unemployment concept used in the debate. Gross unemployment (and net unemployment, which is a subset hereof) gives monthly details on unemployment, e.g. at municipal level, broken down by age groups or by unemployment insurance funds. Moreover, gross unemployment is ideal for highlighting the extent of part-time unemployment and for linking with other register variables such as education and country of origin. LFS unemployment is mainly used in international comparisons of unemployment rates and trends in different countries. Furthermore, the LFS can show the extent of unemployed persons who are not entitled to unemployment benefits or cash benefits, or be used to assess the number of persons who want to find a job. , Overview of unemployment concepts,  , LFS unemployment, Net unemployment , Gross unemployment, Based on, QUESTIONNAIRE, (figures from the Labour Force Survey), REGISTERS, (data from STAR - the Danish Agency for Labour Market Recruitment), REGISTERS, (data from STAR - the Danish Agency for Labour Market Recruitment), Is, sample-based questionnaire , survey with 72,000 interviews each year, register-based complete census, register-based complete census, Published, quarterly, monthly, monthly, Unemployed persons, Complies with the international ILO definition:, - are completely jobless and, - are available to take up employment and, - have carried out activities to seek employment, are registered as unemployed recipients of unemployment benefits or job-ready recipients of cash benefits, excl. those in activation, are registered as unemployed recipients of unemployment benefits, incl. those in activation, What is, counted, number of PERSONS, persons converted to FTE PERSONS, persons converted to FTE PERSONS, Time series, in Statbank Denmark , From 2008, From 1979, From 2007, Strengths, - useful in international comparisons, - shows also unemployed persons who are not entitled to unemployment benefits or cash benefits, - shows persons who want to get a job, - shows youth unemployment (15-24-year-old persons), - allows for supplementary questions, - a monthly flash unemployment indicator , - a long time series from 1979, - shows small groups of persons , - shows available hours, - shows breakdown by unemployment benefit funds , - linkage with other register variables, - a monthly flash unemployment indicator , - shows small groups of persons, - shows available hoursr, - shows breakdown by unemployment benefit funds, - linkage with other register variables, Weaknesses, - statistical uncertainty, - high uncertainty for small groups, complies only partly with the ILO definition, as it only covers persons who are entitled to unemployment benefits or cash benefits, complies only partly with the ILO definition, as it only covers persons who are entitled to unemployment benefits or cash benefits,  ,

Documentation of statistics: Economic Accounts for Agriculture

Contact info, Food Industries, Business Statistics , Simone Thun , +45 51 36 92 51 , sit@dst.dk , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, Economic Accounts for Agriculture 2024 , Previous versions, The Economic accounts for agriculture is a macroeconomic accounting system that illustrates the overall economy of the agricultural sector by providing accounts of production, intermediate consumption, gross investment, and other flows. As a satellite account under the European system of national accounts, this statistic represents the agricultural sector’s contribution to the National Accounts. In 2024, the statistic Gross factor income of agriculture was replaced by the Economic accounts for agriculture, which is regulated by an EU regulation. Accounts for Gross factor income of agriculture are available back to 1935, while the Economic accounts for agriculture in its current form are comparable from 1990 onwards., Statistical presentation, The Economic accounts for agriculture is an annual compilation of the agricultural sector’s economic activities, including the value of production (output), intermediate consumption, and gross investments. In addition, subsidies, labour input, and the sale of pesticides and mineral fertilizers are presented in separate, dedicated tables. The economic activities are compiled at basic prices and expressed in million DKK, both at current prices and at previous year’s prices. The statistics are compiled at both national and regional level. The agricultural labour input is measured in thousand annual work units (AWU). Direct subsidies to the agricultural sector are presented in million DKK. The sale of mineral fertilizers is compiled in tonnes., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The Economic accounts for agriculture is a composite statistical product, which means that its calculation basis is built on existing statistics, referred to as primary statistics. The statistics are compiled annually using data from a range of different sources, e.g., the Farm Accountancy Data Network and Feed Production Statistics, as well as from administrative registers, industry organizations, companies, and foundations. Once the data in each primary statistic has been processed, it is transferred to and consolidated in the data processing system for the Economic accounts for agriculture, which calculates the annual values. The value of each product is calculated using the standard “quantity times price” method., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The Economic accounts for agriculture are relevant for Danish authorities, the EU, research institutions, and agricultural organizations, as they allow monitoring of developments in the economic activities of the agricultural sector. The statistics also serve as input for the compilation of the National Accounts., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The uncertainty in the Economic accounts for agriculture is linked to the uncertainty in the primary statistics used for its compilation. For example, issues such as timing can introduce uncertainty, while other information, such as data from dairies and slaughterhouses, is exact. For preliminary calculations, some estimates are based partly on expert judgment and assumptions until the final data are processed in the primary statistics; therefore, the statistics are considered final only after two years. The sold quantities of mineral fertilizers from the Danish Agency for Green Conversion and the Environment are associated with a certain degree of uncertainty. The data come from the annual collection of sales figures, in which companies with registered products are asked to report the quantities sold of those products. Companies have the option to indicate tax-exempt quantities, but this is voluntary, and not all companies use this option. The data collection does not include self-imports, and some products may be double-counted if a company has not used the option to report a sold quantity as tax-exempt. The data quality is therefore directly dependent on the information provided by the companies to the Agency., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, Preliminary figures for the Economic accounts for agriculture are published no later than 10 months after the end of the reference year. Revised, yet still preliminary, figures are published 22 months after the end of the reference year. Final figures are published no later than 2 years and 10 months after the end of the reference year., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The Economic accounts for agriculture replace the Gross Value Added of Agriculture and are published for the first time in 2025 for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024. They are directly comparable with the Gross Value Added of Agriculture, which can be traced back to 1990, while older compilations exist back to 1935. Unlike the Gross Value Added of Agriculture, the Economic accounts for agriculture include changes in farm stocks and livestock in sales values and present sales values at basic prices. In addition, the compilation contains a number of financial accounts that are not included in the Gross Value Added of Agriculture. As a satellite account, the Economic accounts for agriculture are comparable with the National Accounts’ compilations for the agricultural sector., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in , Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik, .

Base year in the prices indices is changed every fifth year, and latest base year is 2010., Statistical presentation, The Statistics contains for almost all items, monthly, quarterly and yearly information of agricultural prices, as well on sale products as on most products used in the intermediate consumption including capital formation. Some prices are only obtainable as price indices only, especially regarding intermediate consumption. Furthermore the volumes are shown for animal products. The statistics covers both agriculture and horticulture. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data for this statistics is collected at different frequencies from multiple sources. The collected data undergoes a simple validation. Once data is validated, aggregation occurs for a portion of data before publication, while other data is published directly., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The statistics is used by the agricultural organizations and the Ministries (primary the Ministry of Environment and Food of Denmark) to follow the price- and volume developments and to make analyses and forecasts. Furthermore, there is a need in the industry to follow price developments. The statistics cover the need primarily to calculate value added needed for the agricultural gross factor income calculation, which is a part of the National account. , Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, On some products, i.e. horticultural products, qualities and types are several and dynamic. It makes it a little difficult to be sure on the representatively on the prices followed. Concerning input prices based on general price statistics, the situation in agriculture are maybe not fully reflected. Some indices on volumes are indirectly measured based on values and price indices. This method can lead to inaccuracy. The declaration on content on Economic Account for Agriculture and these on animal production includes more information on possible inaccuracy. Because of the very different picture of sources, margins of statistical errors can not be calculated. However, for main output products, i.e. milk and meat, the coverage and accuracy are close to 100 per cent. Prices on cereals and feeding stuff (concentrates) are based on more that 70 per cent of total volume, which ensure high reliability.

The figures for the EU countries are collected from EU’s statistical office, Eurostat, which publishes the figures on their homepage on a quarterly basis. Eurostat collects information from each member state’s national statistical institution. The U.S. figures are collected by the U.S. Department of Labour, Bureau of Labor Statistics, which publishes their figures on their own homepage. , The international labour cost indices are not directly comparable with the national indices of average earnings., Statistical presentation, The indices are published on a quarterly basis to show developments of the Danish and other countries labour costs in an international setting. The figures from EU member countries are based on EU-harmonized regulations. It is expected that the harmonization will extend gradually over time. The numbers are not fully comparable to the Danish national indices of average earnings, which are collected and published quarterly.

The statistics are therefore often mentioned in the daily news press and are often an important feature in the national public debate., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, As the methods used for collection and production of the indices differ in all the countries included in the international labour cost indices, it is only possible to make any conclusions on the accuracy and reliability of the Danish index., In general the reliability of the Danish labour cost index is, due to the size of the sample and the thorough search for errors which is performed, considered to be quite good. This is especially true in the case of the indices on the more aggregate level, such as for the whole business economy or the largest sectors of economic activity. For the smaller sectors of economic activity, the reliability is for natural reasons lower., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The indices are normally published without any delay approximately 80 days after the turn of the quarter being measured.
