    Agricultural Survey [ag/oth]

    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). The FAO launched a Round 7 household survey in Sierra Leone during the lean season from 12 June 2022 to 25 July 2022. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews in all of the districts of Sierra Leone: Bo, Bombali, Bonth, Kailahun, Kambia, Kenema, Koinadugu, Kono, Moyamba, Port Loko, Pujehun, Tonkolili, Western Area Rural and Western Area Urban. A total of 2596 households were surveyed. For more information, please go to https://data-in-emergencies.fao.org/pages/monitoring

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    A total of 2596 households were surveyed through face-to-face interviews between 12 and 25 July 2022 in all of the districts of Sierra Leone: Bo, Bombali, Bonth, Kailahun, Kambia, Kenema, Koinadugu, Kono, Moyamba, Port Loko, Pujehun, Tonkolili, Western Area Rural and Western Area Urban. In this survey, the percentage of the agricultural population across the fourteen districts was an average of 73 percent, in line with the 2015 census. However, higher percentages of agricultural households were found in Moyamba, Pujehun and Western Area Urban districts, and lower percentages were found in Western Area Rural district. Higher percentages could indicate that the sample may have been skewed towards rural households. The lower percentages found in Western Area Rural were in areas that share boundaries with Western Area Urban.

    Weighting

    All of the data were weighted at the analytical stage to ensure that the regional population distribution was adequately represented.
