Abstract
The main objective of the new agricultural statistics program is to provide timely, accurate, credible and comprehensive agricultural statistics that would not only describe the structure of agriculture in Rwanda in terms of land use, crop production and livestock and can be used for food and agriculture policy formulation and planning, but also which can be used for the compilation of national accounts statistics. In this regard, the National Institute of Statistics of Rwanda conducted the Seasonal Agriculture Survey (SAS) from November 2015 to October 2016 to gather up-to-date information for monitoring progress on agriculture programs and policies in Rwanda, including the Second Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy (EDPRS II) and Vision 2020. This 2016 RSAS covered three agricultural seasons (A, B and C) and provides data on background characteristics of the agricultural operators, farm characteristics (area, yield and production), agricultural practices, agricultural equipments, use of crop production by agricultural operators and by large scale farmers.
