Developing our portfolio
The food, farming and biosecurity portfolio of official statistics is large (over 50 different products) and well established 바카라 사이트 with many of our datasets having a long historical archive.
One key driver of the way that the portfolio will evolve will be the new policy context for this topic, for example as a result of the forthcoming Agriculture Act and, more broadly, as a consequence of exiting the EU, increased demand for statistics in areas such as food and food trade.
