This study showcases a new class of administrative, geo-spatial data sourced from agricultural subsidy registers as a powerful tool for agricultural policy evaluation. Beyond full national coverage and accurate identification of land use, the key novel feature of GeoSpatial Aid Application...

Measurement errors in macroeconomic aggregates such as GDP have been widely lamented, particularly in low-income contexts. This study investigates the reliability of one component of national accounts, agricultural sector output. Focusing first on the case of Mozambique, we use a series of 12...

This brochure highlights solutions for sustainable and circular water management. It features examples of innovative projects that tackle water-related challenges by efficiently saving, recycling, and reusing water sources for on-farm use, through innovation, collaboration and knowledge exchange.

Ubiquitous mobile phone ownership makes phone surveying an attractive method of low-cost data collection. We explore differences between in-person and phone survey measures of agricultural production collected for an impact evaluation in India. Phone responses have greater mean and variance, a...

The 7th General Census of Italian Agriculture offers an opportunity to assess the current state and key trends within Italian agriculture. One pressing issue that it highlights is the aging workforce in this sector. Encouraging youth entrepreneurship is a primary goal endorsed by both national...

The primary sector is vital for growth and sustainable development in emerging countries. The combined effects of COVID-19 and geopolitical uncertainty on capital flows are likely to have profound impacts on many developing countries. In particular, decreased capital inflows into agriculture...

On 23 February 2022, the proposal of the Data Act containing ‘harmonised rules on fair access and use of data’ was released. It is a horizontal framework for data access to unlock competition and innovation. The emerging Digital Agriculture sector is one of the non-personal data-driven...

Key figures on the European food chain presents a selection of indicators concerning the food chain, from primary production in agriculture and fisheries through to consumption. Data are presented for the European Union (EU), its individual Member States and European Free Trade Agreement (EFTA)...

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted survey and data systems globally and especially in low- and middle-income countries. Lockdowns necessitated remote data collection as demand for data on the impacts of the pandemic surged. Phone surveys started being implemented at a national scale in many...

The aim of the study was to characterize: a) financial aid paid to farmers under the Common Agricultural Policy and sources of funds from 2004-2018; b) changes in agriculture in terms of: factors of production, cultivation area and production of the main crops in total and per capita, livestock...

Mechanization is the key component among the factors that enhance the intensification of agriculture. To grasp the benchmark status of agricultural mechanization, a household survey was conducted in the crop potential areas of Oromia, SNNP, Amhara, and Tigray regions. The study indicated that...

Mit dem Start des europäischen Erdbeobachtungsprogramms Copernicus ist durch die Sentinel-Satelliten eine kontinuierliche Erfassung der Erdoberfläche in bisher nicht verfügbarer zeitlicher, räumlicher und technischer Qualität gewährleistet. Aus diesen Fernerkundungsdaten lassen sich...

Advances in agricultural data production provide ever-increasing opportunities for pushing the research frontier in agricultural economics and designing better agricultural policy. As new technologies present opportunities to create new and integrated data sources, researchers face tradeoffs in...

Until now, the plantation sub-sector is still faced with the structural issue of a poor plantation data collection system. The data are still collected using a lengthy and stage-by-stage business process, carried out manually, causing an administrative product compilation method that is...
