dc.descriptionThe Comoros, a small island developing state (SIDS) ranking among the poorest nations in Africa, faces many challenges that make it particularly vulnerable to food insecurity: as an isolated, net food-importing country with a small landmass, limited agricultural land and high exposure to natural disasters, the Comoros' food security is particularly vulnerable to external shocks. While a net food importer, agriculture is a key sector and source of income, contributing 30 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) in 2015. This makes the Comoros a rare exception among SIDS. To date, the lack of data on the Comorian agricultural sector has limited the scope of analyses. This study seeks to explore a dataset on agriculture, food security and poverty that was collected in the Comoros throughout 2021. The objective is to provide a preliminary overview of the agricultural sector in the Comoros, particularly agricultural production and crop yields using descriptive statistics.
