Variable : Scottish Agricultural Census Farm Size Categories for 1961

Variables serve as the dimensions of nCubes, and are generally based on the questions on forms such as the census schedule. However, in the aggregate data held in the Vision of Britain system we do not store the individual responses but counts of the number of each kind of response, so variables are made up of categories, such as age groups.

These categories, defined in acres, were used in the Scottish Agricultural Census report for 1961. This are the only year in our 1871-1901-1931-1961 sequence for which farm size is listed, and other years have not been checked. Holdings of under 1¼ acres are excluded from this classification. This classification cannot be mapped to the simple four-way classification used with data for England and Wales because it does not use 300 acres as a break point.
