Forecasts for 1996 are as at end of December 1996
(a) Quantities valued relate to sales and consumption in farm households and not to total production. Output values include subsidies but not 'other direct receipts'. Output is net of VAT collected on the sale of inedible products.
(b) Sales outside Scotland.
(c) The value of the physical increase in breeding livestock.
(d) Output stocks comprise cereals and potatoes; input stocks comprise fertiliser and purchased feed.
(e) Landlords' expenses are included within farm maintenance, miscellaneous expenditure and depreciation on buildings and works. Net rent is the rent paid on tenanted land less these landlords' expenses and the benefit value of dwellings on that land.
(f) Including veterinary expenses, pesticides, electricity and rates.
(g) On commercial debt but excluding loans for land purchase.
(h) Including employers' national insurance contributions. The estimate for family workers (other than spouses) and partners is calculated on the basis of earnings of hired labour.
(i) The income of farmers and their spouses after providing for depreciation and payment of interest and excluding stock appreciation.
