2. 01 Crop and animal production, hunting and related service activities

Contains 7 narrower codes

• 01.2 Growing of perennial crops

What 01 includes

• This division comprises two basic activities: the production of plant products and the production of animal products.
• Combined crop and livestock farming (group 01.5) departs from the usual principles for defining the main activity. It takes into account that many farms have a fairly balanced production of both crops and animals, and that it would be arbitrary to classify them in one category or the other.
• This division includes soilless farming, for example, using hydroponic and aquaponic methods.
• IMPLEMENTATION RULE: In agriculture, a common situation where value-added allocation presents difficulties is when a unit manufactures a product from its own agricultural production. For example, a unit produces grapes and makes wine from the grapes it has grown itself, or produces olives and makes oil from the olives it has grown itself. In these cases, the most appropriate proxy variable is "number of hours worked." Applying it to these vertically integrated activities generally leads to classifying these units as agricultural. Similarly, for other agricultural products, units will be conventionally classified as agricultural to ensure consistent treatment.
• This division also includes services ancillary to agriculture, hunting, trapping, and related activities.
• Agricultural activities exclude, downstream, the processing of agricultural products (falling under divisions 10, 11, and 12), beyond their preparation for primary markets. The preparation of these products for primary markets is included in this division.

What 01 excludes

• This division does not include land development (e.g., earthworks, drainage, rice paddy preparation), classified in section F, Nor the marketing of agricultural products by purchasing groups and cooperatives, classified in section G. Landscaping services, classified under class 81.30, are also excluded.
