Statistics on farm income are published annually in the Teagasc National Farm Survey but these are not available on a county basis and the full 2011 survey is not yet released. However, the most recent national figures from the survey are as follows:
Average Family Farm Income | |||
€ | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 |
Full-time farms | 24,214 | 41,624 | 56,413 |
Part-Time farms | 6,611 | 7,554 | 10,666 |
All Farms | 12,190 | 17,771 | 24,861 |
