Note: the Netherlands is the 2nd largest agricultural exporter worldwide.
Is the beautiful plant also included? If you include it then we would be 75% employed in agriculture. 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱
Am I a farmer?
Interesting how given that only 2.5% of French work in agriculture they place such high importance on getting so high agricultural subsidies from CAP. And how much importance they put to fishing rights in Brexit negotiations, not sure if fishermen are counted in the 2.5%.
And yet they have such a huge lobby in the Netherlands and own 70% of the land. 2% of the population…
How many of that 18.1% sell watermelons?
No one wants to give up these juicy EU subsidies.
how are seasonal foreign workers counted?
Portugal used to be a very rural country until some decades ago, kids would do 4th grade and go work in the farms. I’m surprised it’s only 5%
In Luxembourg someone planted some wheat instead of flower or something? 😀
Does this account for illegal workers? Because it’s definitely a thing here in Italy, unfortunately
UK used to be much much higher until recently and then something happened and now their food won’t pick itself.
What Monaco and Vatican city ? I bet those are full of farmers…
Belgium bro, do you even lift vegetables?
I assume that the real percentage of agricultural employment in Poland is closer to that of Czechia and Slovakia. Due to financial ‘optimalization’ and other reasons, many people are farmers ‘on paper’ just to pay less for social security. I for example had to become “farmer” to buy land to build house.
Belgium only producing 50% of what it consumes 💪🏻😎 we building houses everywhere hell yeah
Does Luxemburg include those who grow chilis and tomatos on balcony?
1 out of 3 Albanians are farmers💀
Now y’all realize that almost all those folks vote PiS.
In my country you can earn 1000 € net/monthly for milking cows, which is more than average wage.
Surprised that France, Spain, and Italy are so low relatively speaking. I would have thought the world’s leading wine producers are a bit higher.
As of February 2020 the number of people working in agriculture in Turkey was 4 million 157 thousand people (4.89%)
This number is less than half of that as of today due to a lot of farmers shutting down business because of bankruptcy and increasing fuel, fertilizer and seed prices.
Too bad Netherlands 🙂
as I understand this map doesn’t take in count workers from other countries? like Ukrainian works in Poland, GB etc on season works in the agriculture.
Netherlands: %2.1, 94.5 billion € export.
Turkey: %18.1, 18 billion $ (most of these are seasonal)
Fucking joke…
%18 sounds like BS to me. Its more like %5. Agriculture is dead in Turkey.
I hate the fact that there’s no data for Vatican City. Pretty sure it would be on top with 0% farmers.

Why is Bulgaria comparatively low?
Every map of Europe has returned
I’d curious to see the percentage 50 years ago

Norway 🤝 belgium in leeching

And yet only about [4.2%](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Romania) of Romania’s GDP comes from agriculture.
Why does my country import food? so much food?
