Abstract
A new microeconomic database on farm households in Italy was created using statistical matching techniques. Information on total households’ income and well-being gathered by the EU-SILC survey on living conditions for Italy was attached to the observations included in the FBS database for Italy. The new dataset, still representative of agricul-ture as an industry, also allows a proper statistical representation and socio-economic characterization of farm households as an institutional sector. The quality of the new microeconomic information was assessed analysing the statis-tical properties of key analysis variables and the distributive features of the current UE Common Agricultural Policy.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
