Synopsis (short abstract) In Bahrain, the Ministry of Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture (MMAA) and Information and eGovernment Authority (IGA) are the entities that are mandated to provide agriculture and food security statistics to support evidence-based policy and decision-making. To carry out their mandate, these entities required support to enhance the country’s agriculture and food security statistics system and ensuring that it is aligned with international standards. This project was therefore formulated to improve the system so that it may provide data for national and international use, increasing the country’s capacity to monitor and report on international frameworks, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

    The importance of good statistical data and its analysis in the national development of countries is seldom appreciated. In order to make progress in alleviating poverty, benchmarks to measure progress need to be established. This is especially true of the Pacific countries where a clear definition of poverty and its scope in the region is still lacking. National capacities in data collection and statistical analysis need to be strengthened to provide decision-makers with accurate information. T his workshop, held in Nadi, Fiji from 10 to 13 November 2003, focused on ways to measure food security and poverty in the Pacific and, specifically, to assist countries in formulating and utilizing a food and agricultural statistics system in the framework of an integrated system of agricultural statistics.

    Reliable and timely statistics are the key to informed decisions, policies and investments in issues related to food and agriculture. FAO is dedicated to collecting, analyzing, interpreting and disseminating food and agriculture statistics that are relevant to decision-making. It also supports member countries in the collection, dissemination and uptake of data to formulate policies and orient investments. Currently, rice consumption in Africa is growing faster than that of any other major staple food crop. Agricultural statistics, particularly on rice production data, are essential to ensure the effective policy planning, implementation and monitoring of national policies on crop development in African countries. The main objective of the project was thus to improve the capacity of CARD countries in the timely collection and provision of reliable statistics on rice-planted area and/or yield.
