The 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).
The FAO launched a household survey between the 29 of November and the of 14 December 2021 to monitor agricultural livelihoods and the food security situation in Chad. Data were collected with a face-to-face survey in the provinces of Guéra, Kanem, Lac, Logone Oriental, Mayo-Kebbi Est, Moyen-Chari, N'Djamena, and Wadi Fira. A total of 1,692 households were surveyed. The data collection took place during the harvest season. The household survey was complemented by interviews with food vendors, input sellers and other key informants. For more information, please go to https://data-in-emergencies.fao.org/pages/monitoring
