    The National Census of Agriculture and Livestock (NACA) is a national survey designed to be conducted every 10 years, the most recent of which was conducted in 2006-2007. The overall objective of the NACA is to provide data for evidence-based decision-making and improved capacity for planning agriculture and rural development. Specifically, the NACA provides data on food and agricultural production required for monitoring food security and estimating agricultural and development programmes, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the Malawi Growth and Development Strategy III (2017-2022). In this context and given the importance of this activity in the country, the Government of Malawi, through the National Statistical Office (NSO), requested technical support from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to prepare and conduct the NACA in 2020. NACA Phase 1 consisted of the preparation of the census and sampling design, sample design of households, detailed work plan development, and the budget for the census. The TCP supported the activities in Phase 1. Phase 2 will include technical support during the data collection, field work, reporting and dissemination of the survey and census findings. The design and implementation of the project addressed the management of the necessary activities to carry out the 2020 NACA, responding to national priorities, specifically making data available to inform evidence-based decision-making.

    In 2007 an in depth evaluation of two agricultural statistics databases in Mozambique was carried out by FAO and other consultants in the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security ( The evaluation determined that there were inconsistencies in the data between the two systems, which caused a duplication of efforts and confusion on the part of users The first database that was evaluated consisted of statistical information obtained through a post harvest probability sample survey known as Trabalho de Inquérito Agrícola ( Despite the fact that the TIA uses a universally accepted methodology, it was deemed problematic because the results were not made available in a timely fashion The second and more timely source was the Aviso Prévio (Early Warning System), which generated data on crop production forecasts estimated through non probability sample surveys These two sources were found to contain data that was not always aligned, complicating planning and evaluation practices, as well as decision making.
