BOFIT Viikkokatsaus / BOFIT Weekly Review 2015/48
At the start of November, the grain harvests had reached nearly 106 million metric tons, or about 1 % less than in the same harvest period in 2014. The grain harvests for this year and last year, however, are both considerably larger than other harvests since 2008. Harvests of other crops such as potatoes, sunflowers, sugar beets and vegetables were up 5–10 % from last year.
Meat and poultry production increased nearly 5 % y-o-y in January-October, while dairy production was down slightly.
