| Description |
The report from the Sierra Leone Listing survey present main findings from the listing data of the 2023 Annual Agricultural Survey. |
| Abstract |
The main results of the Sierra Leone Listing Survey show a dominance of small-scale farming in the country, evidence of regional variations in terms of proportions of agricultural households by region and by district. In addition, male headed households dominate the sector and are more involved in permanent agricultural work compared to female-headed households. Crop production is the most widespread activity across all regions and genders, followed by livestock rearing. Activities such as hunting, fishing, and aquaculture supplement the subsistence farming practices of a small portion of the agricultural population. |
