The agricultural statistics, however, are much older than that with figures for number of farms, livestock, crops etc. going back to around 1900. , Statistical presentation, The farm structure statistics are yearly and include figures on number of farms, livestock, crops and technology distributed by for instance size and geography. The statistics are published "Nyt fra Danmarks Statistik (News from Statistics Denmark) and in the statbank., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The information is collected by means of a yearly questionnaire based survey where the farmers complete the questionnaire online. The answers are validated for non probable values., Information on crops and cattle is collected from registers, and is thereby not reported by every single farmer. , The survey is a sample survey stratified by region, size and type of farming., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The statistics fulfill a need for structural information on the Danish agriculture, e.g. number of farms by size and region. Important users are EU, the ministries and agricultural organizations., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The precision varies for the different items of the statistics. The precision is thus highest for the total agricultural area and less precise for specific crops, especially crops grown by only few farmers. Likewise the precision is best for livestock which many farmers have. This is in particular true for cattle. In the same way the uncertainty is high for small geographical units, e.g. Bornholm., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The survey is published about 9-12 after the survey day. This difference is due to the fact that survey varies in size from year to year, both with respect to the questionnaire and the sample size., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The survey is almost comparable from 1982 onwards. There is also a high degree of comparability with other European countries. Between 2009 and 2010 there is, however, a small break in the comparability since the statistics from 2010 onwards includes a number of small farms and additionally farms with fur animals. It means that the number of farms in 2010 is about 1.200 bigger than it otherwise would have been., From around 1900 to 1981 the statistical surveys also included very small farms with an area of only hectares. These figures are available for the users in paper publications, but not online. , Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The survey is published here: Online, http://www.Statbank.dk, New from Statistics Denmark, Statistical ten years review, and in the analyses of Statistics Denmark, see this analyse on [Analyse]https://www.dst.dk/da/Statistik/Analyser/visanalyse?cid=29376 , Read more about accessibility and clarity

The statistics are used, among other things, to assess the share of GDP devoted to research and development. The survey is conducted according to the OECD guidelines for research and development (R&D) statistics, as set out in the Frascati Manual. The statistics have been produced since 1997, but are comparable in their current form from 2007 onwards., Statistical presentation, The statistics provide an annual account of R&D in the public sector, showing both expenditure (in millions of kroner) and personnel (in numbers and full-time equivalents). The data are distributed by main sectors, types of expenditure, scientific fields, and type of research., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The statistics are based on questionnaires and are collected annually from approximately 650 public and private non-profit units, which together are assumed to carry out all significant R&D in the public sector. The reported data undergo extensive validation, focusing on a number of high-priority variables, particularly R&D expenditure and R&D full-time equivalents. Validation is performed at both the macro and micro level., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, There is a general political objective of increasing the share of GDP, which is applied for research and development, and in the light of this objective, there is great interest in compiling statistics on research and development. The main users are Ministries, public authorities, business organisations, researchers, private business enterprises and the media. In addition, the European Commission (The statistical office Eurostat) and the OECD are important users. Data are available for purposes of research., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, They are based on a complete census, of the expected research-active institutions, of approximately 650 public institutions, with a response rate close to 100 percent. The large dataset undergoes extensive validation, and except for a single question, the extent of imputation for missing values is relatively limited. Imputation may, for example, involve inserting calculated values from other institutions’ reports in place of missing information., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, National release is done 1 year after the end of the reference period. It is the aim to publish preliminary figures 1 year after the end of the reference period. Final figures are published 1 year after the preliminary figures.

In the 2007 statistics, some changes were made to the accounting principles compared with earlier compilations, and between 2006 and 2007 a number of structural changes affected a large number of research institutions. This means that the data in the new survey are only partially comparable with previous surveys., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published yearly in a Danish press release, at the same time as the tables are updated in the StatBank.

The statistics are compiled in terms of full-time persons. , Data on the population´s labour market status are broken down by socio-economic groups i.e. persons in employment, students, unemployed persons and other persons receiving public benefits, children and young people and other people outside the labour force., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The primary statistical data for the LMA is a newly developed register called the AMR-UN (LMA without standardization of hours)., The AMR-UN is composed of administrative data, which are integrated and harmonised in a statistical system. , On the basis of the AMR-UN, the LMA is constructed by means of an hourly standardization of the population´s labour market status, where a person can at maximum contribute with 37 hours per week, corresponding to the existing hourly standard., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Over a number of years Statistics Denmark has carried out work on developing the LMA. Several users have indicated their great interest in and expectations with regard to the statistics/register. , Users of the LMA are typical ministries, organisations and research institutes, etc., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, In the LMA, a wide range of data sources are subjected to data editing and harmonisation in one statistical system. This implies that the LMA can conduct far better analyses of the labour market than the analyses that can be conducted by each individual statistic. At the same time, the LMA constitutes a census of the population and consequently, the statistical uncertainty is reduced compared to statistics compiled on the basis of sample surveys., Against this background, the quality of the statistics is considered to be relatively high. Despite this, there is still some degree of uncertainty linked to the statistics., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published approximately 15 months after the reference year., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics cover the period 2008 to 2021, and during this period the development are comparable. , Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistic is published i the statbank , Labour market accounts, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity

Regions, provinces and municipalities, v1:2007-

Name: , NUTS_V1_2007_DK , Description: , With the Danish Structural Reform, which came into force on 1 January 2007, The counties were abolished and replaced by 5 new regions. In addition, 98 municipalities were formed, which replaced the previous 271. For statistical purposes, the 5 regions are further divided into 11 provinces., The reform resulted by law in a new local and regional structure of the whole country with two administrative levels - regions and municipalities - and thereby a change of administrative units. Of the 98 municipalities, 32 municipalities retained the same municipal code and title before and after the reform., This classification includes Christiansø (code 411). Christiansø does not belong to a municipality, but is managed directly by the state via the Ministry of Defense., The geographical breakdown of regions and provinces is consistent with the Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics (NUTS).Municipalities correspond to local administrative units (LAU), which complement the NUTS nomenclature., Valid from: , January 1, 2007 , Office: , Metode og Data Science , Contact: , Søren Kristensen, , skr@dst.dk, , ph. +45 20 51 64 42 , Codes and categories, Open hierarchy, Download , CSV, DDI, 084: Capital Region of Denmark, 01: Province City of Copenhagen, 101: København, 147: Frederiksberg, 155: Dragør, 185: Tårnby, 02: Province Copenhagen environs, 165: Albertslund, 151: Ballerup, 153: Brøndby, 157: Gentofte, 159: Gladsaxe, 161: Glostrup, 163: Herlev, 167: Hvidovre, 169: Høje-Taastrup, 183: Ishøj, 173: Lyngby-Taarbæk, 175: Rødovre, 187: Vallensbæk, 03: Province North Zealand, 201: Allerød, 240: Egedal, 210: Fredensborg, 250: Frederikssund, 190: Furesø, 270: Gribskov, 260: Halsnæs, 217: Helsingør, 219: Hillerød, 223: Hørsholm, 230: Rudersdal, 04: Province Bornholm, 400: Bornholm, 411: Christiansø, 085: Region Zealand, 05: Province East Zealand, 253: Greve, 259: Køge, 350: Lejre, 265: Roskilde, 269: Solrød, 06: Province West and South Zealand, 320: Faxe, 376: Guldborgsund, 316: Holbæk, 326: Kalundborg, 360: Lolland, 370: Næstved, 306: Odsherred, 329: Ringsted, 330: Slagelse, 340: Sorø, 336: Stevns, 390: Vordingborg, 083: Region of Southern Denmark, 07: Province Fyn, 420: Assens, 430: Faaborg-Midtfyn, 440: Kerteminde, 482: Langeland, 410: Middelfart, 480: Nordfyns, 450: Nyborg, 461: Odense, 479: Svendborg, 492: Ærø, 08: Province South Jutland, 530: Billund, 561: Esbjerg, 563: Fanø, 607: Fredericia, 510: Haderslev, 621: Kolding, 540: Sønderborg, 550: Tønder, 573: Varde, 575: Vejen, 630: Vejle, 580: Aabenraa, 082: Central Denmark Region, 09: Province East Jutland, 710: Favrskov, 766: Hedensted, 615: Horsens, 707: Norddjurs, 727: Odder, 730: Randers, 741: Samsø, 740: Silkeborg, 746: Skanderborg, 706: Syddjurs, 751: Aarhus, 10: Province West Jutland, 657: Herning, 661: Holstebro, 756: Ikast-Brande, 665: Lemvig, 760: Ringkøbing-Skjern, 779: Skive, 671: Struer, 791: Viborg, 081: North Denmark Region, 11: Province North Jutland, 810: Brønderslev, 813: Frederikshavn, 860: Hjørring, 849: Jammerbugt, 825: Læsø, 846: Mariagerfjord, 773: Morsø, 840: Rebild, 787: Thisted, 820: Vesthimmerlands, 851: Aalborg, All versions, Name, Valid from, Valid to, Regions, provinces and municipalities, v1:2007-, January 1, 2007, Still valid

The EU-Commission uses the statistics to monitor and examine the development of the budgetary situation and government debt in Denmark in accordance with the Maastricht Treaty convergence criteria. The Compilations are based on the European System of Accounts (ESA2010). However, on some points they differ from ESA2010, e.g. on the valuation of debt, which is at nominal value., Statistical presentation, The compilation of consolidated gross debt at nominal value for general government is sometimes referred to as EMU-debt/government debt. The deficit is sometimes referred to as the EMU-deficit/government deficit. Government deficit and debt in EU covers data on ESA2010 back from 2010, at the moment.
