    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 first-round household survey in Sri Lanka through computer-assisted telephone interviews. Data was collected between 25 September and 12 November 2022.This first-round survey reached a random sample of 2404 households stratified at the provincial level. The survey targeted the nine provinces of the country – Central, Eastern, North Central, North Western, Northern, Sabaragamuwa, Southern, Uva and Western.

    This first-round survey reached a random sample of 2404 households stratified at the provincial level. The survey targeted the nine provinces of the country - Central, Eastern, North Central, North Western, Northern, Sabaragamuwa, Southern, Uva and Western. Quotas were imposed on the agro-ecological zones - Intermediate zone/VLHZ, Intermediate zone/LK13, low-country wet zone, Up/mid country wet zone, dry zone/LK06, dry zone/LK13 and dry zone - to allow for analysis and reporting at these levels too.
    Weighting

    Data were weighted for demographics, engagement in agriculture and a wealth proxy (type of toilet).
