About this data
Producer prices are prices received by farmers for primary agricultural products as defined in the SNA 93. The producer's price is the amount receivable by the producer from the purchaser for a unit of a good or service produced as output minus any VAT, or similar deductible tax, invoiced to the purchaser. It excludes any transport charges invoiced separately by the producer.
