Since then the survey has taken place every year as a questionnaire based survey where the farmer has received a questionnaire in a letter with an obligation to complete it. The questionnaire has varied year after year, partly to meet EU requirements, and partly to meet national needs. The questionnaire has thereby never been completely identical two successive years. Furthermore the survey has changed between total censuses and sample surveys:\n\nThe following surveys have been total censuses: 1977-83, 1985, 1987, 1989, 1999 and 2010.\n\nThe following surveys have been sample surveys: 1984, 1986, 1988, 1990-98, 2000-09 and 2011-12.\n\nThe next total census will presumably be held in 2019 or 2020.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2010-07","end":"2011-03","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Denmark","abbreviation":"DNK"}],"geog_coverage":"NAtional coverage","analysis_unit":"Households","universe":"The statistical unit is the agricultural holding, defined as a single unit, both technically and economically, which has a single management and which undertakes agricultural activities listed in Annex I to the European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No. 1166\/2008 within the economic territory of the EU, either as its primary or secondary activity.","data_kind":"Census\/enumeration data [cen]","notes":"The census scope covered agricultural (crop and animal production) activities."},"method":{"data_collection":{"time_method":"Reference periods:\n\u00b7\tone year prior to the survey day, for labour force characteristics, education, etc. and\n\u00b7\tthe previous three years (2008-2010), for rural development characteristics.","sampling_procedure":"a.

DATA PROCESSING AND ARCHIVING\nThe majority of paper questionnaires received from the respondents by post were scanned (77 percent); the data from other paper questionnaires (23 percent) were keypunched. Data from the IACS were transferred directly into the statistical database. The questionnaires were registered and also edited in an Oracle database; there were approximately 150 validation rules. All individual information was checked both manually and by means of computer-based validation routines. The imputation was performed using SAS and SQL programming.\n\nb. CENSUS DATA QUALITY\nCompletion\/correction methods were applied, such as follow-up interviews (approximately 5 percent of the farms were contacted once by telephone if important information was missing on the questionnaire). All staff that worked on the AC and SAPM had the authority to correct survey information (for instance after contacting a farmer); however, the imputations, where necessary, were performed only by the survey leader."},"analysis_info":{"data_appraisal":"The AC 2010 results (including the detailed regional data) were published in May 2011.
