Cameroon - Data in Emergencies Monitoring Household Survey 2022

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). Data was collected through telephone surveys conducted by GeoPoll in seven of Cameroon's ten regions: Adamawa, East, Far-North, North, North-West, West and South-West. Between 200 and 222 households were selected in each region, for a final sample of 1 436 households. Data collection took place during the rainy season, which corresponds to the harvest period. The previous round of data collection took place in April and May 2022, during the dry season, when crops were planted and maintained (East, West, North-West and South-West) and harvested (North, Far-North and Adamawa).
