Agro-ecological transition support project/DEFIA: data collection from producers with the FAO TAPE tool

In the framework of the implementation of the project “Support to the agro-ecological transition of the pineapple sector in Benin» and following the training of the interviewers on the FAO TAPE tool, the data collection phase with a sample of 300 pineapple producers who are members of DEFIA’s partner groups took place between 2 and 30 June 2022.

As a reminder, this activity was organised with the aim of identifying current practices and development potential in terms of agro-ecological practices at the group level. It is hoped this will allow to better target and adapt the support and training activities of the groups.

In the coming months, the data collected will be analysed and workshops to validate the support plans per group will be organised.

This activity was organised within the framework of the project “Support to the agro-ecological transition of the pineapple sector in Benin”, funded by ENABEL through its DEFIA programme and implemented by COLEACP.
