Non-professional farms in 2000
Agreste cahiers n° 2 - mars 2004
In 2000 non-professional farms represented 40.8 % of all farms but accounted for only 12.3 % of equivalent full-time labour, 8.2 % of agricultural acreage and 5.5 % of overall agricultural economic activity.
In 2000 non-professional farms represented 40.8 % of all farms but accounted for only 12.3 % of equivalent full-time labour, 8.2 % of agricultural acreage and 5.5 % of overall agricultural economic activity. Since 1988 the number of non-professional farms has decreased by 40 %, offering increasingly fewer jobs, occupying less land and offering fewer agricultural products. However, their role in maintaining rural services and in developing certain areas is still significant, in that they include about one-third of the active population among farm households.
