Kosovo Agency of Statistics (KAS) has published the "Output Price Index and Prices in Agriculture" (Q2 2017) (2010 = 100).

To make comparisons and to observe the changes, here are presented data for the second quarters of 2010-2017 and the base year 2010.

This publication is based on the collection of prices of national agricultural products in Kosovo. Data collection is done in the market, in farms and in other places, where agricultural product prices can be collected.

The products that make up the base for the agricultural product price index are divided into two main groups: plant and livestock products. In the framework of plant products, prices have been collected for these groups: cereals, forage plants, vegetables, potatoes and fruit.

In livestock products prices have been collected for livestock and livestock products. Within livestock, prices are collected for four categories of animals: cattle, sheep, pigs and chickens. These prices are based on live weight of animals. For livestock products prices are collected for: milk, eggs and honey. All prices are calculated in Euro and the units are in kilograms, liters and pieces.

In the second quarter of 2017, the livestock products price index has increased by 3.94% compared to the same period of 2016, while the price index of plant products fell by -6.39%.

Thus, the overall index of agricultural outputs has increased by 0.16%, compared to the same period of 2016.
