Agricultural Survey [ag/oth]
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) through its Country Office in Yemen, with technical support from the Data in Emergencies (DIEM) Hub, conducted the seventh round of its high-frequency monitoring (HFM) survey, marking the fourteenth survey overall, to track rapidly changing indicators related to shocks and food security. High-frequency monitoring (HFM) surveys, alternating with regular DIEM surveys, aim to support early warning and decision-making. This survey did not collect any data on crops, livestock, or need for assistance. Data were collected via Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviews using Random Digit Dialing from 2420 households across all 22 governorates of Yemen between 11 and 21 November 2023.

Sampling
The sample is representative of the population of Yemen and of the governorates (administrative level 1), with a 95 percent confidence level and a 10 percent margin of error. A total of 2420 households were interviewed, of which 51 percent were engaged in agricultural activities (crop, livestock and both), and only 3 percent were engaged in fish production and sale in the 12 months preceding the survey.
Data were weighted during the analysis to ensure proportional representation by population size and wealth proxies — specifically, access to drinkable water ("o_hh_wealth_water") and head of household education ("o_hh_education") — at the administrative level 1. Further, the categories "Illiterate", "Did not complete basic (preparatory) school [1-9]" or "religious education" were recoded as "No formal education". These variables are not included in the microdata, as they deviate from the standard questions and were not stored in the master table.
