SAEDN Data Series

To develop agricultural policy, it is important to understand how agriculture affects the environment. To this end, together with Agroscope, the Federal Office for Agriculture (FOAG) carries out an agri-environmental monitoring programme (AEM) based on the Ordinance for Assessing the Sustainability of Agriculture (SR 919.118). For this, Agroscope calculates so-called agri-environmental indicators (AEIs). AEIs are easily understandable, environmentally relevant variables for representing the complex environmental system. For farm-specific statements for 2009 to 2022, Agroscope relied on the Swiss Agri-Environmental Data Network (SAEDN), in which detailed data on stock and practices from around 300 farms (e.g. livestock, fertilisation practice) was collected to calculate AEIs. The present dataset contains the results of these SAEDN indicators. In 2023, the SAEDN was replaced by the new Swiss agri-environmental monitoring system, ‘MAUS’.
