Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetBrochureInitial achievements of FAO's AGRISurvey programme in Senegal 2019
Also available in:
No results found.The AGRISurvey Programme supports countries to strengthen their national system of agricultural surveys with the aim of enhancing evidence-based policy making in the agricultural sector. The programme complements the efforts and resources of partner countries for the implementation of their Strategic Plans on Agricultural Statistics supporting the collection and dissemination of survey data. The Enquete Annuelle Agricole (EAA) is the main source of agricultural statistics in Senegal and is carried out by the Senegalese Directorate of Analysis, Forecasting and Agricultural Statistics (DAPSA). It estimates the production of the most important rain-fed crops produced by agricultural households, using the crop-cutting method. It also provides information on the physical characteristics of cultivated plots (geo location, area) and major investments made (agricultural inputs, cultural operations, soil management and restoration). Structural data, such as agricultural equipment, agricultural income, agricultural risks and adaptation strategies, are also collected once every three years. The EAA covers the entire country and generates representative production estimates for 14 regions and 42 agricultural departments of Senegal. Since 2017, FAO has been providing technical and financial assistance to the Government of Senegal to expand the Enquete Annuelle Agricole based on the AGRISurvey methodology. Following the implementation of AGRISurvey many improvements can be observed, from the expansion of scope of the survey, to a better data precision, improved data access and dissemination and reduction of costs and time for data collection.

Book (stand-alone)Technical bookFAO Strategy for Partnerships with Civil Society Organizations 2013FAO has been working for many years with hundreds of civil society organizations (NGOs, community-based organizations, professional associations, networks, etc.) in technical work, emergency field operations, training and capacity building, and advocacy of best agricultural practices. Over the past years, civil society organizations (CSOs) have evolved in terms of coordination, structure, outreach, mobilization and advocacy capacity. In this period, FAO has also undergone changes i n management, revised its Strategic Framework and given a new impetus to decentralization. Therefore, a review of the existing 1999 FAO Policy and Strategy for Cooperation with Non-Governmental and Civil Society Organizations was needed. The FAO Strategy for Partnerships with Civil Society considers civil society as those non-state actors that work in the areas related to FAO’s mandate. It does not address partnerships with academia, research institutions or philanthropic found ations, as they will be treated in other FAO documents. Food producers’ organizations, given their specific nature and relevance in relation to FAO’s mandate, will be considered separately. In principle, as they usually are for-profit, they will fall under the FAO Strategy for Partnerships with the Private Sector, unless these organizations state otherwise and comply with the criteria for CSOs. These cases will be addressed individually. The Strategy identifies six areas of colla boration and two levels of interaction with different rationales and modus operandi: global-headquarters and decentralized (regional, national, local). The main focus of this Strategy is in working with civil society at th e decentralized level. In its Reviewed Strategic Framework, FAO has defined five Strategic Objectives to eradicate poverty and food insecurity. To achieve this, the Organization is seeking to expand its collaboration with CSOs committed to these objectives.
