Résumé fourni par la source

The lack of sex-disaggregated data is now a recognized constraint limiting the understanding of agricultural development in developing countries.Such data are required to support the monitoring of gender differences and their effects on agricultural production, and to promote gender equality.FAO recognizes the value of sex-disaggregated data and gender indicators in agricultural statistics and supports the Global Strategy to Improve Agricultural and Rural Statistics by financing work to increase their availability.This document reviews the literature on the collection of sex-disaggregated data in agricultural surveys and the agricultural modules of national household surveys in preparation for a guidance document for national statistical institutions.It: i) examines current practices and gaps in collecting sexdisaggregated data and gender indicators in agricultural surveys; ii) summarizes main methods used; and iii) reviews initiatives and proposals.
