Statistics in Focus. AGRICULTURAL PRICE TRENDS IN THE EU IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 1999. 2000.3
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Annual change ¡n the real output price index, 3nd quarter 1999 (in %) 0 -4.1 -40 -3.7 -3.6 -5.0 -4-9 -6.1 -60The index of prices of agricultural products for the European Union (EU15) declined in both nominal terms (4.2%) and real terms (5.6%) in the third quarter of 1999 relative to the corresponding quarter of the previous year.This decline accentuates the trend seen throughout 1998 and early 1999.The decrease in the total price index was due to price declines for both crop products (6.9%) and animals and animal products (4.3%).There was a steep price decline for fruit (21.1%).However, prices of cereals, with the arrival of a new harvest, were close to the level seen in the third quarter of 1998.The price decline for pigs was finally halted although the price index remains at a low level.The real price decline for milk was accentuated.For all Member States (see graph) there were declines in the real total output price index.Decreases ranged from 1.3% in Austria to 10.1% in Belgium and 10.6% in the Netherlands.The index of prices of the means of agricultural production, i.e. the input price index, showed little change for EU15 in nominal terms (+0.1%) and declined in real terms (1.2%).Prices for energy increased while prices for fertilizers and animal feedingstuffs decreased.Changes in the total input price index ranged from +0.8% in Belgium to 3.9% in the Netherlands.The agricultural terms of trade (output prices vs. input prices) declined significantly (4.4%).^ eurostat

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
