Abstract

The Annual Agricultural Survey (AAS) is an integrated modular survey aiming to provide high quality and timely data on the performance of the Ugandan agricultural sector, as well as core indicators on crop and livestock for better agricultural policy making. Data collection for the AAS is implemented in two waves, corresponding to the first (January-June) and second (July-December) seasons of the Ugandan agricultural year. For each visit, households in the survey's sample are interviewed twice, during the visit1 period and visit2. This results in a total of two visits during the agricultural year. The data collection activities were delayed by the pandemic. Among information collected with the AAS there is data on: The quantity and value of agricultural production; The access to extension services, market information and agricultural facility; Livestock keeping and animal products production; The socio-demographic characteristics of agricultural household members. The collected data is used to produce a set of tables and indicators for tracking and evaluating the impacts of government and development programs on agriculture, and to compute SDG and CAADP indicators related to food and agriculture. For the main findings from the AAS 2020, see the Executive Summary of the AAS 2020 Report (see external resources/downloads section).

Geographic coverage

The AAS is a national survey representative at the regional, sub-regional and zardi level. The National territory has been divided in 10 ZARDIs which are aligned to 10 Agro-ecological zones in Uganda. Each agro-ecological zone includes districts with similar climate, land use and cropping patterns. The following are the 10 Zardis considered for the AAS: Abi: districts included are Arua, Nebbi, Moyo, Adjumani, Koboko, Yumbe, Maracha-Terego and Zombo; Buginyanya: districts included are Sironko, Mbale, Iganga, Jinja, Tororo, Mayuge, Namutumba, Namayingo, Luuka,Kamuli, Kaliro, Buyende, Bugiri, Pallisa, Kibuku, Butaleja, Busia, Budaka, Manafwa, Kween, Kapchorwa, Bulambuli, Bukwo and Bududa; Bulindi: districts included are Hoima, Masindi, Kiryandongo, Kibaale, and Buliisa; Kachwekano: districts included are Kabale, Rukungiri, Kanungu and Kisoro; Mukono: districts included are Mukono, Mpigi, Kayunga, Kalangala, Kampala, Luwero, Masaka, Nakasongola, Mubende, Wakiso, Nakaseke, Buikwe, Buvuma, Mityana, Kiboga, Kyankwanzi, Gombe, Kalungu, Bukomansimbi, Butambala and Lwengo; Ngetta: districts included are Lira, Apac, Dokolo, Lamwo, Nwoya, Agago, Albetong, Amolatar, Kole, Otuke, Oyam, Pader,Kitgum, Amuru and Gulu;

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

A two-stage sampling design was adopted for the AAS 2020. To increase the efficiency of the sample design, the sampling frame was stratified into 10 ZARDIs. In each stratum, the first stage was the selection of the Primary Sampling Unit (PSU), which is the EA (enumerator area) and the second stage was the selection of the Secondary Sampling Unit (SSU), which are the Ag HHs. The survey covered households cultivating crops and/or raising livestock, including households that were cultivating a few crops or raising a limited number of animals. No minimum threshold on the amount of land cultivated or animals raised was set nor did the survey aim to generate estimates concerning aquaculture, forestry and fisheries. Sample size The survey generated national, regional and sub-regional level estimates. A sample of 593 EAs and an average of 12 Ag HHs were selected from each EA.

Mode of data collection

Computer Assisted Personal Interview [capi]

Research instrument

The Annual Agricultural Survey (AAS 2020) adopted three main questionnaires: the post-planting (PP), the post-harvest (PH) and the livestock and holding questionnaires. Normally, the PP and PH questionnaires are administered each season, while the livestock and holding questionnaire is administered at the end of the second season and covers the entire agricultural year. Nonetheless, in the AAS 2020, a different survey calendar was adopted due to movement limitations imposed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cleaning operations

All the data captured from the field were stored in the cloud with a local backup. Editing and validation was done electronically using STATA software.

Response rate

The response rate was about the 94.5 %.

Sampling error estimates

The accuracy of the survey results depends on the sampling and the non-sampling errors. The AAS 2020 had a large enough and representative sample to limit sampling errors. On the other hand, the non-sampling errors, usually errors that arise during data collection, were controlled through thorough training of the data collectors, field supervision by the headquarters team, and a well-developed CAPI programme. The Coefficients of Variations (CVs) and Confidence Intervals (CIs) for selected indicators at national, ZARDI and sub-regional levels are presented in the Annex tables.
