Growing of perennial crops

NACE v2.0 Code: A01.2

About growing of perennial crops

NACE code 01.2, 'Growing of perennial crops,' encompasses a vital sector of the agricultural industry. This classification covers the cultivation of a wide range of crops that are harvested over multiple growing seasons, such as fruits, nuts, and various types of perennial plants. The importance of this industry cannot be overstated, as it provides essential food and raw materials that support numerous other economic activities across the global supply chain.

Production process

The production techniques employed in the growing of perennial crops involve a combination of careful cultivation, harvesting, and post-harvest processing. Growers must carefully manage the planting, pruning, and maintenance of their orchards, vineyards, or plantations to ensure optimal yields and product quality. Harvesting methods vary depending on the specific crop, but often involve manual or mechanical picking, shaking, or other specialized techniques. Post-harvest processing, such as sorting, cleaning, and storage, is also a critical component of this industry.

Production inputs

The primary inputs required for the growing of perennial crops include fertile land, suitable climate conditions, and access to water resources. Growers also rely on specialized agricultural machinery, such as tractors, pruning equipment, and harvesting tools. Additionally, various agricultural inputs, such as fertilizers, pesticides, and irrigation systems, are essential for maintaining the health and productivity of perennial crops.

Production outputs

The main outputs of the growing of perennial crops industry include a diverse range of fruits, nuts, and other edible and non-edible plant products. These outputs are then consumed or further processed by a variety of other industries, including 10.3 Processing and preserving of fruit and vegetables, 11.0 Manufacture of beverages, and 16.1 Sawmilling and planing of wood, among others.
