Abstract
The Participatory Smallholder Agriculture and Artisanal Fisheries Development Programme (PAPAFPA) and the Smallholder Commercial Agriculture Project (PAPAC) are complementary projects designed to improve the livelihoods of smallholders in Sao Tome and Principe. PAPAFPA created four farmers’ cooperatives to enhance the development of the cacao, coffee, and pepper value chains through increased commercialization in domestic and niche export markets. PAPAC aimed to consolidate the activities carried out under PAPAFPA and to introduce family plantations within each value chain.

The projects interventions revolve around the promotion of certified organic farming and the creation of export-oriented cooperatives in each value chain, together with the investment in rural infrastructure. The projects’ cooperatives play a key role in the implementation of the interventions in the field, by working closely with the farmers and their associations, providing professional training, productive assets and facilitating linkages to the market. The interventions aim at increasing agricultural production in a sustainable manner via organic farming, enhancing market access and resilience to shocks, thereby promoting small farmers’ income stability and food security.

Questionnaires

Questionnaires
The impact assessment uses a mixed-methods approach incorporating a qualitative survey and two quantitative surveys. Data were collected from 1,404 households and 126 community and producer association leaders. Information was collected at the household level on demographics, expenditures, wealth, income-generating activities, and resilience, and at the community level on market access, infrastructure, gender, and producer organization empowerment.

The quantitative data consisted of two separate questionnaires: one administered to a sample of 1,404 households and another to a sample of 126 leaders/key member of communities and/or producers’ associations. The household survey collected information mainly on household level indicators related to agricultural production, consumption, wealth, income, vulnerability and social capital. The producer’ associations survey, on the other hand, focused mainly on indicators related to community level agricultural markets, infrastructure, associativism and resilience.

Note: some variables have missing labels. Please, refer to the questionnaire for more details.
