1 Farm Economics brief N 2 EU production costs overview July 211 Contents The effect of the economic crisis on costs and margins Operating costs in the EU groups Highly contrasted costs among the Member States Total economic costs lower in EU- 1 but increasing Introduction This brief presents key findings on EU production costs for the following agricultural sectors: cereals, dairy and beef. Cost levels and their breakdown are compared between EU groups, and among Member States. The brief looks not only at operating costs, but also at total economic costs including opportunity costs for family factors. This allows the comparison of total costs for farms with different structures in terms of land, labour and capital. Cost and margin developments in recent years are analysed and the impacts of the agricultural price boom and the economic crisis are assessed. Given the contrasted trends in prices and costs, margins have been squeezed in 28 for beef and in 29 for milk and cereals. Looking at margins, data show that low costs do not necessarily mean high margins, and the inverse also holds. In addition, margins do not only depend on the level of prices, but also on coupled subsidies. In the EU-1 in particular, total economic costs are in general lower thanks to lower opportunity costs for family labour and capital. Differences in production costs illustrate the variety of production systems, of natural conditions, and of economic contexts in the EU. Some trends may be explained by changes in exchange rates as not all Member States are in the Eurozone. Production costs and margins were estimated based on data from the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN). The FADN is an annual sample survey collecting structural and accountancy data on farms.

2 1. The effect of the economic crisis on operating costs and gross margins Box 1: Definition operating costs Operating costs cover all cash expenditures necessary to operate, for example feed and veterinary costs, energy, seeds, fertilisers, pesticides (wages, rent and interest paid are not included here). Gross margins correspond to the total receipts from the product (including possible coupled payments) minus the operating costs. The costs and margins are expressed per unit of product. For the products analysed, EU-15 operating costs (see Box 1) increased steadily in nominal terms over the period Figure 1: Trend in EU operating costs (nominal terms) The main drivers of the increase depend on the sector. For milk, the rise was mainly driven by energy and labour costs. For cereals, it was mostly explained by fertilisers, machinery, seeds and crop protection. Milk costs have risen mainly since 27.The average annual growth was and 4.6 % for beef breeders and fatteners (farms combining both breeding and fattening). In the EU-1, the rise in operating costs over the period was more significant: from 2.5 % average annual growth for beef breeders and fatteners to 25 % for cereals (Figure 1).

3 In the livestock sectors, operating costs rose abruptly in 28 (from +12 % to +26 %, depending on the EU-group and on the product). This was primarily due to the increase in feed costs (+38 % between 27 and 28 for milk in the EU-15). In 29, feed costs decreased significantly and so did operating costs; yet they remained higher than their 27 level. On the other hand, 28 cereals operating costs decreased by 1 % in comparison with 27 (average for the EU-27) thanks to better yields. But they increased significantly, by 17 %, between 28 and 29. The main items contributing to this increase were fertilisers, machinery costs, seeds and crop protection. Figure 2: Trend in beef revenues and costs For beef, prices did not change dramatically between 27 and 29, so gross margins diminished in 28 (Figure 2). Given the developments in prices (peak in 28 and dramatic drop in 29), milk and cereals gross margins were squeezed in 29 (Figure 3). Figure 4 below illustrates the disruption in the pattern of output and input price developments in recent years. A rather steady pattern of real price declines in output and input prices, with the former decreasing faster, was observed until 25. However, since 26, the gap between input and output prices has widened faster, driven mainly by factors outside agriculture: energy prices, exchange rates, and financial events.

4 2. Operating costs in the EU groups Box 2: Terminology The following terminology is used with regard to costs. Total economic costs comprise of: - operating costs: o o specific costs (seeds, fertilisers, crop protection, or feed, veterinary costs) non-specific operating costs (machinery and buildings, power (fuel and electricity), contract work, taxes and other dues, taxes on land and buildings, insurance for farm buildings and other direct costs); - depreciation; - external factors (wages, rent and interest paid); - opportunity costs for unpaid family factors (family labour cost and own capital cost). Operating costs for cereals in 27 do not differ much between EU groups (Figure 5): they remain between -7 % and +1 % around the EU-27 average. The only exception is the EU-1 average operating costs for grain maize, which are 2 % higher than the EU average. The grain maize yield was indeed exceptionally low in 27 in the EU-1. We look indeed at the development of costs per tonne, so in the case of cereals, the fluctuations of yield play a major role in the development of the cereals costs per tonne. For milk, beef fatteners and beef breeders and fatteners, the contrast between EU groups is more marked: the EU-1 and EU-2 have significantly lower operating costs than the EU-27 average (- 18 % and -27 % respectively for milk). Beef breeders operating costs are similar for all EU groups. The breakdown of operating costs depends primarily on the sector considered. In cereals, fertilisers, crop protection and energy represent the bulk of the operating costs (around 5-6 % on EU average). For milk, the most important cost item is feed (around 5 %). Energy represents between 9 % of the average milk operating costs in the EU-15 and 14 % in the EU- 1 and EU-2. Feed is also a major cost item for beef breeders and fatteners in the EU-15 (4 %); however, in the EU-1, it represents only 2 % of the operating cost given the lower price for feed. In the EU-1, the beef non-specific costs are considerably higher because of the substantial costs of building and machinery upkeep, and energy costs. Farm economics brief Page 4 / 14

6 3. Highly contrasted operating costs among the Member States Box 3: Methodology The production costs and margins analysed in this brief are estimated based on the Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) database. The FADN is a European system of sample surveys that take place each year and collect structural and accountancy data relating to farms; their aim is to monitor the income and business activities of agricultural holdings and to evaluate the impacts of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). Costs available in the database are for the whole farm. Models are used to allocate farm costs to a particular product. They use different ratios: for example, product output to total output. They are calculated based on samples of specialised farms (for example, farms for which more than 4 or 5 % of the output comes from the product considered). For 27 production cost estimates, the samples of specialised farms studied represent 28 % of the cereals area, 71 % of dairy cows and 74 % of the suckler cow herd. It should be underlined that the presented EU or Member States average figures are not weighted by volume or value of EU or Member State production, but by number of farms represented in the population. In certain cases, there are not enough specialised farms in the EUgroup or in the Member State to allow calculating an estimate. This is why there are some blanks in certain tables or graphs. For 28 and 29, operating costs and gross margins have been estimated on the basis of agricultural price indices and input price indices (source DG AGRI and ESTAT). Farm structures were assumed to remain unchanged. Figure 6 on the following page shows the difference between the national average operating costs and the EU-27 average for each analysed product. This difference ranges from - 63 % (Portugal, for beef breeders and fatteners) to +84 % (Belgium, for beef breeders and fatteners) of the EU-27 average, reflecting the variety of production systems in the EU and the cost aspect of the national competitiveness for the product in question. For these products, Member States can be ranked according to their level of operating costs: - Spain, Estonia, Lithuania, Poland and Slovenia have low operating costs in comparison with the EU-27 average. - Denmark, Greece, Finland, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Malta and Slovakia have high operating costs in comparison with the EU-27 average. - France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Austria are close to the EU-27 average operating costs for the products studied. - Belgium, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Portugal, Latvia, Bulgaria and Romania provide a mixed picture based on the product in question. For example, Belgium has low operating costs for milk, but very high ones for beef, especially for breeders and fatteners. Portugal has very low operating costs for beef, but not for cereals. Bulgaria has low operating costs for milk, but not for grain maize. It should be underlined that since not all Member States are members of the Eurozone, changes in the exchange rate may explain some differences between Member States. The value of labour, land, and buildings decreases in euro terms when the value of a non-euro currency falls. On the other hand tradable inputs (fertilisers, pesticides, energy) get more expensive.

8 Figures 7 and 8 illustrate the average operating costs and the gross margin by Member State for 27 and by analysed product. It should be underlined that there is no systematic negative correlation between operating costs and gross margins, as these depend on the price level and on the possible coupled subsidies applied in the Member State. Therefore it should be kept in mind that low operating costs do not necessarily mean high profitability or vice versa. For example thanks to high prices and coupled subsidies, Finland has a good average milk gross margin despite its very high operating costs (Figure 7). Similarly, thanks to strong prices, Belgian beef breeders and fatteners have one of the highest gross margins in spite of their extraordinarily high operating costs (Figure 8). For cereals, Cyprus and Finland have the highest operating costs. However, high operating costs are not driven by the same factors in the two countries. In Cyprus the high operating costs are mainly driven by very high fertiliser and crop protection costs. In Finland they are explained mainly by machinery and building upkeep and other direct costs (insurance, taxes, etc.). Poland, Estonia, Lithuania and especially Spain have very low operating costs in most products. The main drivers of these low costs likewise differ according to the Member State and to the sector. For milk, the lowest average operating costs are for Lithuania, Romania and Poland. Malta and Finland have the highest costs.

9 When considering costs and margins for the beef sector, the reader should keep in mind that results are expressed per cow or male cattle sold. The final product is not always homogeneous (i.e. quantity of meat produced per cow), particularly between Member States, thus comparisons should be interpreted with caution. In beef, national average operating costs reflect natural conditions and/or the existence or nonexistence of quality-oriented systems for cattle breeding and fattening. The highest total operating costs were found in Belgium (specific high quality production), Finland and Sweden (extreme climatic conditions) (Figure 8). Figure 8: Operating costs and gross margin by Member State 27 (beef) /cow operating costs - /cow Beef breeders The lowest costs are observed in Portugal, Spain and the Czech Republic. It is also interesting to note that some Member States have a very different level of operating costs depending on the system (breeder/breeder and fattener/fattener). For example Italy appears to have on average low operating costs for breeders and for breeders and fatteners but it has the highest operating costs for fatteners. However, this does not prevent Italy from having a good gross margin for all production systems thanks to good prices. On the other hand, Spain and Portugal have very low operating costs for all production systems gross margin - /cow BE DK DE ES FR IE IT LU AT PT FI SE UK CZ SI 529 /male cattle sold 1 4 Beef fatteners - 27 operating costs - /male cattle sold 1 37 gross margin - /male cattle sold BE DK DE EL ES FR IE /cow Beef breeders and fatteners - 27 operating costs - /cow gross margin - /cow BE DE ES FR IE IT LU PT FI SE UK Source: EU FADN DG AGRI, Models for the allocation of costs.

10 The structure of operating costs can be very different from one Member State to the other (Figure 9). Fertilisers and crop protection represent almost 45 % of cereals operating costs in Cyprus, Lithuania, Latvia and Poland, and only 21 % in Austria. Energy accounts for a large share of cereals operating costs in Portugal, Hungary and Latvia, and a relatively limited one in Ireland, France and Denmark. For milk production feed can represent a widely varying share of the operating costs, ranging from 36 % in Luxembourg to 8 % in Malta. Figure 9: Breakdown of operating costs by Member State and product 27 Feed is a major component of operating costs for milk and beef production in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Malta: Southern countries have greater recourse to purchased feed, which is more expensive. In Finland and Austria other operating costs represent a large share of total operating costs for all the products presented, mainly because of the weight of the machinery and building upkeep cost in these countries. 1% 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % Cereals /t - operating costs - 27 Cereals - /t Fertilisers and crop protection Cereals - /t Fuel and energy Cereals - /t Other operating costs DK DE EL ES FR IE IT AT PT FI SE UK CY CZ EE HU LT LV PL SK BG RO Milk /t - operating costs % 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % Feed Fuel and energy Other operating costs BE DK DE ES FR IE IT LU NL AT PT FI SE UK CZ EE HU LT LV MT PL SK SI BG RO Beef breeders & fatteners /cow - operating costs % 9% 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% % Feed Animal purchase Fuel and energy Other operating costs BE DE ES FR IE IT LU PT FI SE UK Source: EU FADN DG AGRI, Models for the allocation of costs.

11 4. Total economic costs lower in EU-1 but increasing In this chapter, we look at total economic costs, which take into account operating costs and all other costs (see Box 2). They allow comparing total costs for farms with different structures in terms of land, labour and capital and to explain some differences of competitiveness among Member States. For the sectors analysed, EU-15 and EU-2 total economic costs are in general very close to the EU-27 average (Figure 11). The exception is with the EU-2 grain maize total economic costs, which are 25 % higher than the EU-27 average as a result of the exceptionally bad yield in 27. Expressed in EUR/ha, EU-2 cereals costs are significantly lower than EU-15 ones. In contrast, for all products studied, EU-1 total economic costs are more or less lower (from -9 % to -2 % in comparison with the EU-27 average). This is in particular due to lower imputed family factors (Figure 11). However, it should be noted that both external and imputed family factors have been steadily rising since 24 in the EU-1 (Figure 1), driving the increase in total economic costs. Such increases (in wages, family labour costs, rent, etc.) probably reflect a mix of increasing living standards and the strengthening of currencies of those Member States. In the milk sector, EU-1 external wages increased faster than the net margin (amount available to remunerate own factors). This explains the increase in the total economic costs of the EU-1 for cereals and milk (Figure 1). In the EU-15 the trend in total economic costs is quite flat over the period 2-27 or very slightly increasing depending on the product. The breakdown of total economic costs shows that operating costs represent between 4 % and 55 % of total economic costs (Figure 11). On average, the share of operating costs is a little higher for livestock sectors. In the EU-1, they represent the highest share (55 %) for all the products studied given the lower costs for external and family factors explained above. Depreciation is generally lower in the EU-1 and EU-2 groups due to older buildings or equipment and/or the longer average life of assets and/or lower prices of assets. In the EU-2 external and imputed family factors represent a large share of the total costs. This is mainly due to the high labour input in Bulgarian and Romanian farms. In spite of very low wages per hour the total labour cost is high. The shares of external and family factors differ greatly between cereals and milk. This is because on average in the EU-2 farms specialised in cereals rely heavily on paid labour whereas milk specialised farms rely heavily on family labour.

13 The difference between the national average total economic costs and the EU-27 average is presented in Figure 12. It can range from -56 % (Portugal, for beef breeders and fatteners) to +98 % (Cyprus, for cereals) compared to the EU-27 average. It allows Member States to be classified according to their level of total economic costs: - Spain, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland and Bulgaria have low total economic costs for the products studied. - Denmark, Greece, Austria, Finland, Sweden, Cyprus, Malta and Romania have very high total economic costs. - France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic (except barley) and Hungary are close to the EU-27 average total economic costs for the products studied. - Belgium, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, the United Kingdom and Slovakia have a contrasted situation according to the product studied. For example, Belgium has low total economic costs for wheat and milk, but high ones for beef. Portugal has low operating costs for milk and beef, but not for cereals. The main drivers of high or low total costs may differ considerably among Member States. For example, Denmark s high total economic costs are mostly driven by very high amounts of interest paid, whereas in the case of Romania it is due to a low yield for cereals and to high family labour input for milk. Finally, it should be underlined that the national average may conceal wide disparities across farms within the country.
