3. This means that the data does not take account of the effect of inflation.

4. Food and drink includes agriculture, fisheries (including aquaculture) and food and drink manufacturing.

5. Formerly known as a Key Sector.

6. 2010 data is the latest available.

7. From 2008, SABS is sampled on a SIC 2007 basis using revised methodology. GVA for 2007 was £4.2bn but caution must be used when comparing 2007 data with later years

9. This data only covers imports from overseas and does not take account of the movement of food between the different countries of the UK.

10. This data examines current land use, however, this indicator attempts to monitor the potential to produce food in the future and not the current levels of production. The area of land used to produce crops at present is taken as a proxy for the ability to produce food in the future.

11. From 2008, SABS is sampled on a SIC 2007 basis using revised methodology. Caution must be used when comparing 2007 data with later years.

12. From 2008 the data is presented on a SIC 2007 basis. Caution must therefore be used when comparing 2007 data with later years.

13. 2012 total does not sum to 100% due to rounding.

14. For 2007 R&D spending as a percentage of GVA was 0.24%, however, this is based on data using SIC 2003 and is not directly comparable with data for later years.

15. Data is not available for food and drink processing excluding tobacco.

^16. Please note that this data is from a different source than used in previous publications for this indicator.

17. From 2008, SABS is sampled on a SIC 2007 basis using revised methodology. Caution must therefore be used when comparing 2007 data with later years.

18. The emissions presented here are on a by source basis, so emissions are allocated to the source sector in which they occur. The categories 'Cropland conversion' and 'Soils' take account of removals of carbon from the atmosphere as well as carbon emissions.

19. From 2009, data on land use was obtained from the Single Application Form (SAF). The use of SAF data has resulted in a step change in some of the land use results for 2009, especially for rough grazing and grass. This means that the trends between 2007 and 2012 for these land use categories do not represent genuine changes to land use and should be treated with caution.

20. 2010 data is the latest available. From 2008, SABS is sampled on a SIC 2007 basis using revised methodology. Caution must therefore be used when comparing 2007 data with other years.

21. From 2008 the data is presented on a SIC 2007 basis. Caution must therefore be used when comparing 2007 data with later years.

22. Food and drink manufacturing R&D also include tobacco manufacturing.

23. GVA data for 2007 are based on 2003 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) and 2008 onwards is based on SIC 2007.

24. The 2007 R&D spend figure has been revised since the Scotland Food and Drink targets were set.

25. Data for 2011 relates to GB tourists only.

26. It is likely that there are more schools engaged in Food and the Environment learning, but who did not return the postal survey form.
