It also said the production structure saw no significant changes in 2011. Thus, crop production accounts for the bulk with 70.8% (RON54.2 billion) compared with 67.4% in 2010, followed by animal production with 28.5% (RON21.7 billion), down from 31.6% in 2010, and services production with 0.7% (RON544 million), compared with 0.86% in 2010.
The value structure of crop production, on main groups of crops, is different from that in 2010. Thus, the weight of grain and potato crops rose by 11.6 and 2.2 percentage points, respectively, to 36.4% and 12.2%, respectively, and the weight of oil plants also rose from 6.7% to 8%. The three categories exceeded half of the crop production value, weighing 56% compared with 41% in 2010. The weight of vegetables and melons, however, decreased by around five percentage points to 15.6%.
The value structure of animal production, on main groups of products, saw slight changes in 2011, compared with 2010, as the weight held by cattle, sheep and goats rose by 1.5 and 1.2 percentage points, respectively, while the weight held by swine decreased by 2.7 percentage points.
Nearly 30% of the animal production value is held by cattle, followed by products obtained from milk processing in zootechnical farms (24.3%), poultry (20.3%) and swine (17%). (EUR1=RON4.5960)
