Agricultural income per annual work unit (Indicator A1) fell by 11.6% in the EU in 2009, mainly caused by a drop in output prices. The result is based on estimates provided by the Member States in January 2010. The steep decrease in income followed a decrease of 1.8% in 2008. The fall in agricultural labour input (-24.9%) in EU-27 since 2000 is analysed in a separate section.
