Information by geographical area (Map 1)

Findings in this publication from the June Agricultural Census are presented by region and "regional grouping". Each agricultural holding is allocated to one of the 891 parishes in Scotland. These parishes can then be aggregated up to the higher geographies like local authority ( LA), regional grouping (groupings of LAs) and region. The table below presents which local authorities lie within each regional grouping and region.

Most parishes lie wholly within a single LA area and therefore it is easy to allocate these areas to higher geographies. However, it is important to note that not all parishes lie wholly within a single LA boundary. In these cases, where the parish straddles LA boundaries, the LA in which the majority of the parish's area is located is assigned the whole parish.
