Series Information
In accordance with Law No. 13248 "Census Law", the First National Census of Agriculture (I CENAGRO) was conducted in 1961. I CENAGRO was conducted jointly with the Sixth Population Census and the First Housing Census. Eleven years later in 1972, the Second National Census of Agriculture (II CENAGRO) was conducted independently of the National Censuses over a period of twenty days.
On December 15, 1993, through Supreme Decree No. 098-93-PCM del, the government declared the Third National Census of Agriculture (III CENAGRO) to be of national interest and a priority. Beginning in 1994, the National Institute of Statistics and Informatics (INEI) was commissioned with the direction, planning, and execution of the census.

Abstract
The National Census of Agriculture constitutes the most important source of statistical information that provides up to date information of the agricultural reality of the country. The purpose of the data is to provide up to date information on the agricultural structure, that is, of the productive capacity with the aim of facilitating a greater understanding of the agricultural reality of the country. It allows for the formulation of development plans and adoption of policies that help improve the living standards of the living of the agricultural population.
More specifically, the objectives of III CENAGRO include:
- Gaining a better understanding of Agricultural holdings according to type, size, tenure, land use, etc.
- Obtaining information on areas with homogenous agro-ecological, economic, and social characteristics
- Establishing easily identifiable areas that allow for the immediate production of livestock statistics
- Improving the production of continuous agricultural statistics and contribute to the development of an integrated agricultural statistical system
- Obtaining basic information for the formulation and evaluation of development plans for the Agricultural Sector

Consistency
---------------------
This activity includes a set of tasks, whose objective is to ensure that the collected census information is coherent and consistent. Errors can be eliminated either manually or mechanically.
1. Development of the Work Plan
--------------------------------------------
The development of a document that specifies the planning of programming of this activity, the strategy to be followed, and the goals to be met within each task
2. Criticism of the coding of records entered
-------------------------------------------------------------
Involves examining the information with the purpose of detecting errors, omissions, or duplicates and proceeding to manually fixing any issues.
Coding consists of assigning numerical keys or codes to the qualitative information of the open questions, which will allow the subsequent processing of the information.
Both tasks will be carried out at the headquarters in a single operation, with highly training personnel.
3. Statistical quality control of the criticism
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The quality control of the criticism – codification consists of accepting or rejecting the records that have been altered, to avoid sending records with incorrect information. Rejected records will always be revised fully.
4. Quality control of the data entry
-------------------------------------------------------
Quality control of data entry will be conducted in a centralized matter, either accepting or rejecting the records that have been worked on, to avoid the processing of erroneous information to obtain results.
5. Computerized consistency
-----------------------------------
The set of consistency rules embodied in computer language (Development of a special consistency program), that can be applied to each of the questions of the problematic records – this allows for error detection or inconsistencies. As a result, the data provided to users is real and reliable.
6. Tabulation consistency
------------------------------------
Detailed and methodical analysis of the census’s results contained in the test tables and in the final tables in order to ensure the consistency of the census’s results and/or to detect and eliminate any consistency errors that were not detected on time.
7. Consistency of the Census Evaluation Survey
----------------------------------------------------------------
Coding of the records in the Census Evaluation Survey that after being processed are compared at the level of each selected Agricultural holding, in order to develop estimates of census omission and of the quality of the information obtained
8. Preparation of reports
-----------------------------------
It refers to the formulation of management by those responsible for the execution of tasks, indicating the most frequent errors, questions with the highest percentage of error, daily average of consistent certificates, etc.
