A complete overview about the EU food chain in 2021.

Key figures on the European food chain report provides a selection of recent data collected in 2021 from the domains of agriculture and fisheries statistics, as well as the wider farm to fork chain.

The publication is divided into ten chapters, providing facts and figures about farms, farmers, farm production and prices, the economic performance of the agricultural sector, fisheries activities, food and beverages processing, trade, distribution, wholesale activities and the consumption of food and beverages. It concludes with a chapter on environmental issues related to some of the stages of the food chain.

It presents key messages for the EU, and highlights the main players and key specialisations, accompanying analysis with intuitive visualisations and innovative data presentations. Information is presented for the European Union and its Member States, and is supplemented (when available) with data for EFTA members.
