KSH’s agricultural survey starts on 13 November

The Hungarian Central Statistical Office’s agricultural survey of individual farms starts on 13 November and runs until 15 December. For Hungarian producers, the immediate steps are determined jointly by the KSH information page and their individual notification.

For questionnaire OSAP 2219, online self-completion is available from 13 to 22 November. For the priority farms covered by OSAP 2375, online completion is mandatory, with a 15 December deadline. The source page has no stated publication date; we checked it on 12 November. Its current relevance is the next day’s launch.

Our practical editorial conclusion is to compare the questionnaire identifier in the notification with the information page first. A general calendar entry can obscure differences in submission arrangements between respondent groups.

Within a farm, it is useful to decide in advance who gathers the records, who checks the information and who finalises submission. Data submission and a grant decision are separate processes; completing the questionnaire does not establish eligibility for a new subsidy.

When organising the work, it is also useful to record where the figures came from. If an answer later needs correction, tracing its supporting record is easier than reconstructing the farm’s information from memory.

The household food-waste survey concerns a different target group, while the September retail figures present already aggregated statistical results. After the 13 November opening, respondents should track the deadline for their own questionnaire and retain confirmation of submission.
