Should you require any data that is not available in these other publications and was previously available in ERSA, please contact agric.stats@gov.scot.

These are publications from 2012 to 2018. Older, more detailed information can be found on the archived site.

The format of Economic Report on Scottish Agriculture (ERSA) was changed for 2013 in order that statistics and commentary are presented thematically (e.g. crops, livestock and labour). ERSA also contains new articles which highlight developments that are underway in our methods and analysis or which look at historical data.

A selection of time series data taken from ERSA publications over the last ten years are available as a series of Excel workbooks:

Economic Report on Scottish Agriculture - Section C time series
