The 2023 Sierra Leone Annual Agricultural Survey (AAS) is the first round of AAS conducted in Sierra Leone. It was implemented under the 50x2030 Initiative, a program jointly lauched by the World Bank, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD). The lead national implementing agencies in Sierra Leone are Statistics Sierra Leone (Stats SL) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS).
AAS was designed to ensure the production of foundational agricultural data that are timely and of quality, fit the needs of the country and match the main national development targets. The approach adopted is that of a modular approach. This first round covers the CORE module and the ILP (Income, Labor and Productivity) module.
