Introduction
Purpose
This document is part of a project evaluating the importance of hill farming in Scottish communities. It compares agricultural and population census data at an agricultural parish level to an index of hill farming.
Population census
Population census data missing for some areas in 2001. Missing for some variables, but not others.
Population change


Population working


Public sector type work
Need to detail what’s included in 2001 and 2011 public service, as this could be source of increase!


Primary production


Agricultural census
Agricultural census questions considered:
- ITEM177 Occupier working full-time on holding
- ITEM178 Occupier working half-time or more on holding
- ITEM179 Occupier working less than half time on holding
- ITEM182 Spouse working full-time on holding
- ITEM183 Spouse working half-time or more on holding
- ITEM184 Spouse working less than half time on holding
- ITEM177 Occupier working full-time on holding
- ITEM178 Occupier working half-time or more on holding
- ITEM179 Occupier working less than half time on holding
- ITEM182 Spouse working full-time on holding
- ITEM183 Spouse working half-time or more on holding
- ITEM184 Spouse working less than half time on holding
- ITEM1714 Full-time regular staff - male - partners
- ITEM1715 Full-time regular staff - male - hired
- ITEM1716 Full-time regular staff - male - member of occupiers family
- ITEM1717 Full-time regular staff - female - partners
- ITEM1718 Part-time regular staff - male - partners
- ITEM1719 Part-time regular staff - female - partners
ITEM 177 is useless - apparently all owner occupiers in 2000 were less than 30 years old.
## Warning: Removed 2 rows containing missing values (geom_point).

## Warning: Removed 732 rows containing missing values (geom_point).

Why so many missing values in 2011 item177?
make up of sector age? gender owned/rented? casual family
Possible to look at productivity change? Is output higher for less staff? Is this universal or do hill areas behave differently?
Comparisons
Proportions of each classification against hill score.
