Gross Output Value of Farming,
Forestry, Animal Husbandry and Fishery
refers to the total value of products of farming, forestry,
animal husbandry and fishery, and total value of services rendered to support
farming, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery activities. It reflects the
total scale and results of agricultural production during a given period. A new
industrial classification of economic activities was introduced in 2003. Under
the new classification, value of services to farming, forestry, animal
husbandry and fishery is included in the gross output value of agriculture.
Gross
output value of agriculture is obtained by first multiplying the output of each
product or by product by its price, resulting in the output value of each
single item. For a small number of products, annual output of which is not
available or difficult to get due to the long production (growing) process
involved, the output value is estimated through an indirect approach. The sum
of output value of all products of farming, forestry, animal husbandry and
fishery is then equal to the gross output value of agriculture.
Value-added of Farming,
Forestry, Animal Husbandry and Fishery
refers to the final results of various agricultural production
and trade units in money terms. It is calculated with two approaches. First,
production approach, value-added of
farming, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery = gross output value of
farming, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery intermediate input of farming,
forestry, animal husbandry and fishery. Second, distribution approach, value-added of farming, forestry, animal
husbandry and fishery = depreciation of fixed assets + Labourers
remuneration + net taxes on production (taxes on production subsidies
production) + operating surplus.
Consumption of Chemical
Fertilizers in Agriculture
refers to the quantity of chemical fertilizers applied in
agriculture in the year, including nitrogenous fertilizer, phosphate
fertilizer, potash fertilizer, and compound fertilizer. The consumption of
chemical fertilizers is required in calculation to convert the gross weight
into weight containing 100% effective component (e.g. 100% nitrogen content in
nitrogenous fertilizer, 100% phosphorous pent oxide contents in phosphate
fertilizer, 100% potassium oxide contents in potash fertilizer). Compound
fertilizer is converted with its major component. The formula is:
Volume of effective component =
physical quantity x effective component of certain chemical fertilizer (%)
Total Power of Agricultural
Machinery
refers to total mechanical power of machinery used in farming,
forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery, including ploughing,
irrigation and drainage, harvesting, transport, plant protection, stock
breeding, forestry and fishery and other agricultural machineries. Machinery
employed for non-agricultural purposes, such as the machines used in township
run and village-run industry, construction, non-agricultural transport,
scientific experiments and teaching, is excluded.
Effective Irrigated Area
refers to areas that are effectively irrigated, i.e. level
land which has water source and complete sets of irrigation facilities to lift
and move adequate water for irrigation purpose under normal conditions. In
general, irrigated area equal sum area of paddy fields and irrigated land for
irrigated engineering or complete sets.
Number of Livestock Slaughtered
refers to the total number of animals for butchering by
farming, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, including parts of selling to
country and markets.
Output of Meat
refers to output of having butchered of pork, beef, mutton,
horse, mule, donkey, fowls, and rabbit in the current year, namely the
heaviness minus head, hoof, offal.
Output of Aquatic Products
refer to amount of fishing (including artificially cultured,
naturally grown), in respective consumption by peasants themselves or sold. It
excludes aquatic (i.e. fish fry, fish grows, fish bait and transferred fish
from piscine, leave fish) for continuing expanded reproduction aquatic. Various
fresh water plants (i.e. lotus roots, water chestnut) are not included.
Yield of Fruits in Orchards
refer
to total output of fruits harvested from fruit trees in current year, not only
for eating but also for sale, but not include melon-fruits (for example,
watermelon, melon, honey dew melon, crisp melon, etc.) , vegetables such as
lotus root, tomatoes and so on, and collection of wild fruits. Output of fruits
is calculated as fresh fruits. Dried dates, raisins, persimmon, orange cake,
etc. should be unified into fresh fruits in the calculation.
