Crop parcels (BRP) and reference parcels Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland Every year farmers tell RVO which crop grows on their parcels. From those declarations RVO builds the crop parcel register: each parcel as a polygon, with crop, crop code and category (grassland, arable land, landscape feature, nature area …), reference date 15 May. The API holds the final 2025 edition with 2,331,084 parcels; the downloads go back to 2009 and a draft for 2026 is already available. Also the reference parcels: the outline of all agricultural land (2,358,200 polygons), formerly the Agrarisch Areaal Nederland. Via PDOK as OGC API, WFS, WMS and GeoPackage.
