Abstract
The FAO has developed a monitoring system in 26 food crisis countries to better understand the impacts of various shocks on agricultural livelihoods, food security and local value chains. The Monitoring System consists of primary data collected from households on a periodic basis (more or less every four months, depending on seasonality). Between 23 July and 17 August 2021 FAO launched a household survey which was conducted via telephone interviews by Geopoll using a list of respondents from a previous round of data collection and from desert locust assessment contacts. Additional contacts were obtained from random digit dialling. The sample comprised 2,732 households, including 160 agricultural households in 17 regions of Somalia. In addition, face-to-face key informant interviews were conducted with 50 crop, livestock and fisheries extension officers, 55 agricultural input venders and 49 food traders.
