II. Improvement of data quality

Efforts should be addressed in order to:

– Better planning

– Commitment from the authorities to allocate the more resources to undertake the surveys according to the designed sample, good practices of data collection and timeliness;



II. Improvement of data quality (cont)

– Regularly undertake agricultural annual surveys aligned

with the agricultural census.

– To assess the quality of administrative data to complement the statistical data in the system (livestock data at lower level, data on some specific crops, etc).

– More involvement from all the sectors of the TWG for discussion of the data published in the website



II. Improvement of data quality(cont)

Discrepancy Analysis

–The discrepancy between FAO STAT Data and CountrySTAT data, is based on source of data, used.

• FAO Stat has estimated the data

• FAO Stat has data from “early warning”

• CountrySTAT has data from (IAI)Annual Agriculture Survey

• CountrySTAT has data from the sectors

• Lack of integration between the different data sources



II. Improvement of data quality (cont.)

– Data available & Time series • First Agriculture Census(CAP I) in 2000. • Agricultural annual surveys for the years:

◦ 1996- TIA 96 ◦ 1999/2000- Agriculture Census (CAP I) ◦ 2002- TIA 02 ◦ 2003- TIA 03 ◦ 2005- TIA 05 ◦ 2006- TIA 06 ◦ 2007- TIA 07 ◦ 2008- TIA 08

• 2009/2010 – Agricultural Census (CAP II) • 2012 - IAI (Integrated Agricultural Survey)

• First phase (prediction of production) - completed • second phase (the production data collection) - in progress



– Data available & missing values

• The surveys & census does not cover all the CountryStat indicators.

• Missing data in the oficial time serie of agriculture: 2001, 2004, 2009, 2011

• Quantities data unavailable for external trade

II. Improvement of data quality (cont.)




• Trade data – to provide quantity

• Sub national data

• Improvement in data collection methods in the Annual Agriculture survey – (IAI is underway in order to improve this gap in accordance to the Agricultural Master Plan recently released)

• Integration between the different data sources for agricultural stats

• CountryStat as the main hub of Agriculture Statistics of Mozambique




CountryStat data & CountrySTAT Website

CountryStat was included as a part of course on data sources for Journalist, September 2011 (performed but is meant to be an activity remains).

The Secretariat of CS prepared a one day training material for the course on CountryStat

CountrySTAT Dissemination by Province, once we could provide more data for sub national level.

Visão do SEN: Ser a principal referência estatística para o desenvolvimento nacional



Conclusion

• For improvement of data quality:

- is the prospect of creating a center for harmonizing the methodologies for collecting processing and dissemination of agricultural statistics.

- Ongoing harmonization of methodologies, concepts and definition of different statistical process and stakeholders.



Conclusion

– Need to follow the FAO standards: Concepts and

Definitions

– Need to provide relevant documentation of the data available in the website

– Need to implement the CountryStat workplan

Visão do SEN: Ser a principal referência estatística para o desenvolvimento nacional
