Integrated Surveys on Agriculture Ethiopia Socioeconomic Survey (ESS) 2015/2016

• The Ethiopia Socioeconomic Survey (ESS) is implemented in collaboration with the World Bank Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS) team as part of the Integrated Surveys on Agriculture program.
• ESS objectives include development of an innovative model for collecting agricultural data, inter-institutional collaboration, and comprehensive analysis of welfare indicators and socioeconomic characteristics.
• The survey is integrated with the CSA’s Annual Agricultural Sample Survey (AgSS); the rural households included in the ESS are a sub-sample of the AgSS sample households.
• ESS is a panel survey. The first wave was implemented in 2011–2012, the second wave was carried out in 2013–2014 and the third wave was implemented in 2015–2016
• The first wave covered only rural areas and small town areas. The second and third waves covered rural areas, small towns, and large towns.
• ESS uses a nationally representative sample of over 5,000 households living in rural and urban areas. The urban areas include both small and large towns.
• This report presents descriptive results from the third wave of data.
