Price indices of agricultural producers and forestry price indices were revised in the year 2000. The process in question involved a revision of the set of commodities and re-basing of the current base period to the new base period effective for the calculation of agricultural price indices. The weighting scheme of products and their aggregated groups has been changed. The contribution deals with the analysis of a new project regarding the construction of price indices of agricultural producers according to the Eurostat methodology. This project shows different approaches in measuring the weighting schemes of seasonal products and products without seasonality.

Keywords: price agricultural statistics, state statistical report, price index, aggregation of prices, weighting scheme
