Sampling
A total of 2596 households were surveyed through face-to-face interviews between 12 and 25 July 2022 in all of the districts of Sierra Leone: Bo, Bombali, Bonth, Kailahun, Kambia, Kenema, Koinadugu, Kono, Moyamba, Port Loko, Pujehun, Tonkolili, Western Area Rural and Western Area Urban. In this survey, the percentage of the agricultural population across the fourteen districts was an average of 73 percent, in line with the 2015 census. However, higher percentages of agricultural households were found in Moyamba, Pujehun and Western Area Urban districts, and lower percentages were found in Western Area Rural district. Higher percentages could indicate that the sample may have been skewed towards rural households. The lower percentages found in Western Area Rural were in areas that share boundaries with Western Area Urban.
All of the data were weighted at the analytical stage to ensure that the regional population distribution was adequately represented.
