Manure and environment — Sweden
Dehesa Index brings together 15 “Manure and environment” series for Sweden, with official data and its history (since Jan 2000, latest 2024). Each value is shown as the source publishes it, not converted or recalculated.
In brief
In their latest reading, 7 of the 14 series rose, 6 fell and 1 were unchanged against the previous observation. The largest rise is “Pesticide sales: Categories A and C, non-chemical active substances (tonnes of active substance, Eurostat)” (+265 %, 2024); the largest fall, “Food waste: Primary production of food, agriculture, fishing and aquaculture (Kilograms per capita, Eurostat)” (−77.8 %, 2024). Against the same period a year earlier (14 comparable series), “Pesticide sales: Categories A and C, non-chemical active substances (tonnes of active substance, Eurostat)” rose most (+265 %) and “Food waste: Primary production of food, agriculture, fishing and aquaculture (Kilograms per capita, Eurostat)” fell most (−77.8 %). “Farmland bird index (Index, 2000=100, Eurostat)” is at its lowest (since 2000).
Computed from the series in the table; each keeps its own frequency and unit.
