The Agricultural Census - 2019 is a large-scale statistical operation carried out by Statistics Portugal on a mandatory basis in view of Regulation (EU) 2018/1091 of the European Parliament and of the Council.

The publication Agricultural Census - 2019 is organized in eight chapters that address the following themes: Farm Structure; Farm land cover; Irrigation; Livestock; Machinery; Farm labour Force and profile of the manager (natural person or legal entity); Organic farming; Portuguese agriculture within EU28.

The aim is to present an analysis of the main results, comparing them, whenever it seems appropriate, with previous census operations, in particular the Agricultural Census - 2009 and / or with regional results. In this way, it is intended to provide users with an overview of the main developments that have occurred in agricultural holdings in the last decade as well as to make known some specificities of the Portuguese agriculture.
