The Central Statistics Office (CSO) has reminded farmers to complete and return their census of agriculture forms now, as the deadline has passed.
Those who have not yet completed the census will be receiving a reminder letter this week from the CSO to do so.
Information provided will be strictly confidential and will only be used for statistical purposes.
Benchmark statistics
CSO statistician Cathal Doherty said: “The questionnaire was issued early in September and we would like to thank all those who have completed and returned their questionnaire.
“You have the option to complete the paper form and return it using the freepost envelope or to complete it online using your unique login details that will arrive by post this week.”
The Census of Agriculture was first collected in Ireland in 1847 and is collected every 10 years to provide benchmark statistics on the number of farms in Ireland and their structure in terms of farm enterprise.
The CSO has said the information harvested will be of great value to the farming community and forms part of an EU-wide programme of farm censuses being conducted this year.
