Abstract: This paper gives an overview on indicators of agricultural development in the EU and the place of agriculture in the economy of the Member States. The data are extracted from various collections of Eurostat’s statistics: national accounts (within theme economy and finance), labour force survey (LFS) (within theme population and social conditions), aggregated data on external trade and agricultural labour input. The second part of this paper presents some rural development statistics based on the degree of urbanisation concept dividing the EU territory in thinly populated areas, intermediate areas and densely populated areas.

Keywords: agricultural development; Member States; rural areas; degree of urbanisation; labour force. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
