PREFACE
The report presents findings from the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Industries study of 2014.
The study was carried out to gather information required for the compilation of macroeconomic
aggregates such as Gross Output, Intermediate Consumption, Compensation of Employees,
Consumption of Fixed Capital, Operating Surplus and Value Added. The Value Added figure
gives us the net output of goods and services produced by the above mentioned industries which
determines their contribution to Fiji’s economy.
Knowledge about these macroeconomic aggregates is important because they are indicators or
main signposts signaling current trends in these industries.
Those interested in the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Industries will find the report useful as
it will allow them to study, analyze, and understand the major variables that determine current
trends. Findings from the report can also be used to identify areas needing improvement.
Information contained in this report will be used to build up a system of national accounts which
allows us to construct a quantitative image of Fiji’s economic system.
This study would not have been possible without the assistance of a good number of helpful
individuals and organizations. Their effort is much appreciated and I look forward to their
continued support in the future.

INTRODUCTION
1.1
History of studies undertaken
This report contains the results of the 2014 study on the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing
industries taking place in Fiji together with other relevant information on the industry. It was an
ad hoc study and now conducted by the Fiji Bureau of Statistics (FBoS) annually because of the
need by its National Accountants to re-base the constant price Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Industries.
A brief description of similar studies done in the past is given below in chronological order:
1989
The purpose of conducting a study for 1989 was to determine the benchmark levels for the
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing industries in the rebasing of the constant price GDP from 1977
to 1989. The results of the study are contained in the report titled “A Study of Agriculture,
Forestry and Fishing Sector for the compilation of the 1989 Gross Domestic Product.”
1995
The 1995 study was also conducted to determine the benchmark levels for the Agriculture,
Forestry and Fishing industries in the rebasing of the constant price GDP, but this time, from
1989 to 1995. The results of the study are contained in the report titled “1995 Gross Domestic
Product Sources and Methods”.
2002
The 2002 study of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing industries was conducted for the rebasing
of the constant price GDP from 1995 to 2002. The outcomes of the study are contained in the
report titled “A Study of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Sector 2002”.
2008
Another study of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing industries was conducted in 2008, for the
rebasing of the constant price GDP from 2002 to 2008. The outcomes of the study are contained
in the report titled “A Study of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Industries 2008”.
2011
Another study of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing industries was conducted in 2011, for the
rebasing of the constant price GDP from 2008 to 2011. The outcomes of the study are contained
in the report titled “A Study of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Industries 2011”. From
2011 the survey has been conducted annually.

1.2
Need for statistics relating to Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing activities are widely scattered in the country and the economic
function they perform in channeling the flow of goods from the producer to the consumer is of
great importance. These industries account for a substantial proportion of the total economic
activity, whether in terms of the sector to the GDP or in terms of its share of total employment
and Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF).
Statistics on Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing are needed for the preparation of national accounts
so that a meaningful study of the whole economy can be made. The data can also be used to
construct the input-output table that shows the inter-connection of the Agriculture, Forestry and
Fishing industries with other industries.
Policy makers too require the data for formulating sound economic and social policies that
augment capital formation. In addition, the entities engaged in the Agriculture, Forestry and
Fishing industries find the data helpful.
1.3
Peculiar features of the Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing industry
Despite difficulties faced due to the peculiar features of the sector, great care was taken whilst
conducting the study. Nevertheless, it is possible that some omission or double-counting may
have occurred, but not that large to be able to affect the overall results in any significant way.
The peculiar features of the industries are:

The industries are highly sensitive to weather. Droughts, floods and hurricanes are natural
disasters that have great impact on the industries.

Period of production is relatively long in some cases, for example, trees take years to mature
so therefore the forestry sector can experience high intermediate costs in some years, but
suddenly a very high value added in a particular year.

Activities are carried out by a wide variety of units, e.g.
o small and large business units. Due to the different size of business units engaged
e.g. small and large farms in the growing of coconuts, caution has to be exercised in
calculating the input ratios as they have an impact on the macroeconomic aggregates,
o own account individuals. It has to be ascertained that they are not producing for own
consumption only, and
o other units whose main activities are in other industries. The need to include them in
the study, if market activity is involved.

Sub-leasing of farms is prevalent e.g. in the case of sugarcane – there is a probability that
some work may have been double counted (if the co-tenant’s work is not deducted from the
main tenant, and also picked up for the co-tenant) or sometimes not counted at all (if the cotenant’s work is correctly deducted from the main tenant, but not picked up for the co-tenant).

Many small establishments go in and out of business with changing economic and seasonal
factors.

Most small business units do not maintain proper records, so careful estimates are calculated.

Sugarcane is mostly grown on the Western side of Viti Levu and on Vanua Levu. Production is
seasonal and starts around June-July and ends in December every year. Sometimes the season spills
over to January of the next year, but the production is not significant.
This study is based on the financial year data i.e. year ended 31 March 2015 which reflects the season
2014. The 2014 season data is slightly different to the calendar year data that is required for the study.
The reason for not using the calendar year data is that except production data no other data required for
the study were available on a calendar year basis. Use of 2014 season data gives the best estimates for
the calendar year 2014.
Data on total sugarcane production and the prices paid to the growers have been obtained from the Fiji
Sugar Corporation (FSC). There was a growth in Total Active Growers of 16.1 per cent in 2014
compared to 2013. This is due to the increase in the number of growers. Refer table above.
Data obtained through personal interviews of farmers by FBoS have been used to calculate the input
ratios of this sub-class activity.
A notable growth of 30.6 per cent was noted in the value added when compared to 2013.

APPENDIX I: CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS
All concepts and definitions used in this report are based upon the recommendations of the
United Nations. The major concepts and definitions and their treatment are briefly explained
below.
Compensation
of Employees
Includes payments, whether in cash or in kind, made by the employer during the
inquiry period for the work done to all persons included in the count of employees. It
includes all cash payments, commissions, bonuses, cost of living allowances and wages
paid during periods of vacation and sick leave, contributions in respect of their social
security and pension and payments in kind.
Consumption
of Fixed
Capital
In theory this is the value of the current replacement cost of fixed assets used up during
the accounting period as a result of normal wear and tear. The consumption of fixed
capital shown in this report is derived from the information supplied by the firm. This
is expected to conform largely to the requirements of Income Tax Act.
Employees
This includes all persons who work in the establishment and receive regular pay and
persons working away from the establishment when paid by and under the control of
the establishment, including persons on sick leave, holiday or vacation. Also included
are salaried managers, and directors of incorporated businesses except when paid
solely for their attendance at board of directors meetings. This category excludes
working proprietors and unpaid family workers.
Establishment
An establishment can be referred to as an enterprise that engages in one or
predominantly one kind of economic activity, at or from one location, for which data
are available or can be meaningfully compiled, that allow the calculation of the
operating surplus.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets include the value of all physical assets expected to have a productive life
of more than one year and intended for use by the establishment. Included are major
additions, alterations and improvements to existing fixed assets that extend their
normal economic life or raise their productivity.
Gross Fixed
Capital
Formation
This is the outlay on new and second-hand durable goods less their sales plus their own
account capital construction work done.
Gross Output
This is the gross value of all goods and services produced during the accounting period,
the value of own account capital construction and other income.
Intermediate
Consumption
Intermediate consumption consists of non-durable goods and services which have a
lifetime of use of less than one year. Compensation of employees do not form part of
intermediate consumption, but expenditure such as travelling expenses of management
personnel are included. Intermediate consumption differs from total purchases of raw
materials, fuels etc. by the amount of stock changes of such goods. Valuation of
intermediate consumption is at purchasers’ value i.e. it is inclusive of all costs incurred
by producers in the acquisition of the required goods and services.
Operating
This is the excess of value added by producers over compensation of employees,
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing Industries 2014
Economic Statistics Division
36
Surplus
consumption of fixed capital and net indirect taxes.
Payments in
kind
This is defined as the net cost to the employer of those goods and services furnished to
employees free of charge or at markedly reduced cost that are clearly and primarily of
benefit to the employees as consumers. The item includes food, beverages, clothing
(except uniforms for civilians as these are not worn off-duty) and lodging etc.
Persons
Engaged
This is defined as the total number of persons who worked in or for the establishment
during the reference period, including working proprietors, active business partners,
unpaid family workers and regular paid workers.
Statistical
Unit
Unpaid
Family
Workers
Statistical unit is the Unit for which information is collected.
Value Added
Value added is the difference between the gross output and the intermediate
consumption. It provides a useful way of measuring without duplication the economic
importance of an industry or industrial sector.
Working
Proprietors
Working proprietors are owners of establishments who are actively engaged in the
work of the establishment. Excluded are silent or inactive partners.
Unpaid family workers are persons living in the household of any of the proprietors of
the owning establishment and working in the establishment without regular pay for at
least one third of the working time normal to the establishment.

APPENDIX II: INDUSTRIAL CLASSIFICATION USED
SECTION A: AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND FISHING from the Fiji Standard Industrial
Classification 2010, commonly known as FSIC 2010 has been used. FSIC 2010 is based on the
International Standard Industrial Classification Rev. 4.
AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND FISHING includes the exploitation of vegetal and animal
natural resources, comprising the activities of growing of crops, raising and breeding of animals,
harvesting of timber and other plants, animals or animal products from a farm or their natural
habitats.

CROP AND ANIMAL PRODUCTION,
RELATED SERVICE ACTIVITIES
HUNTING
AND
This division includes two basic activities, namely the production of
crop products and production of animal products, covering also the
forms of organic agriculture, the growing of genetically modified
crops and the raising of genetically modified animals. It also includes
service activities incidental to agriculture, as well as hunting, trapping
and related activities.
Group 015 (Mixed farming) breaks with the usual principles for
identifying main activity. It accepts that many agricultural holdings
have reasonably balanced crop and animal production and that it
would be arbitrary to classify them in one category or the other.
Agricultural activities exclude any subsequent processing of the
agricultural products (classified under division 10 for manufacture of
food products; 11 for manufacture of beverages and 12 for
manufacture of tobacco products), beyond that needed to prepare them
for the primary markets. However, the preparation of products for the
primary markets e.g. drying of tobacco leaves is included here.
The division excludes field construction (e.g. agricultural land
terracing, drainage, preparing rice paddies etc.) classified in section F
(Construction) and buyers and cooperative associations engaged in the
marketing of farm products classified in section G.

Fishing
This group includes capture fishery, i.e. the hunting, collecting and
gathering activities directed at removing or collecting live wild aquatic
organisms (predominantly fish, molluscs and crustaceans) including
plants from the oceanic, coastal or inland waters for human
consumption and other purposes by hand or more usually by various
types of fishing gear such as nets, lines and stationary traps. Such
activities can be conducted on the intertidal shoreline (e.g. collection
of molluscs such as mussels and oysters) or shore based netting, or
from home-made dugouts or more commonly using commercially
made boats in inshore, coastal waters or offshore waters. Unlike in
aquaculture (group 032), the aquatic resource being captured is usually
common property resource irrespective of whether the harvest from
this resource is undertaken with or without exploitation rights. Such
activities also include fishing restocked water bodies.
