Agricultural Survey [ag/oth]
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).
Data were collected through computer-assisted telephone interviews in 11 provinces (Ituri, Kasai, Kasai-Central, Kasai-Oriental, Kwango, North Kivu, North Ubangi, South Kivu, South Ubangi, Tanganyika and Tshopo) out of 26. The sample of 2 716 agricultural and non-agricultural households was selected at random, following a stratified simple random sampling design that has minimal design effect.

Sampling
Data were collected through computer-assisted telephone interviews in 11 provinces (Ituri, Kasai, Kasai-Central, Kasai-Oriental, Kwango, North Kivu, North Ubangi, South Kivu, South Ubangi, Tanganyika and Tshopo) out of 26. The sample of 2 716 agricultural and non-agricultural households was selected randomly, following a stratified simple random sampling design that has minimal design effect.
Surveys are designed based on country-specific needs, objectives, and constraints. They aim to achieve a 10% margin of error, a 95% confidence level, administrative-level granularity, and sufficient sample sizes for key target populations, including agricultural households.
Weights were calculated based on population size and a wealth indicator (access to toilets) to ensure that the results were representative at the administrative 1 level.
