Technical consultation on the integration of statistical and agricultural market information services. Proceedings of a CTA workshop
2003
This technical consultation tackled issues around the sustainability and effectiveness of market information services (MIS) at the local, national and regional level in the ACP region. It aimed to share information and experience with regard to running MIS for the use of farmers; define the pre-requisites for an adequate ‘Monitoring and Evaluation’ system and develop a framework for public-private and national-international cooperation.The main recommendations of the workshop included the need: to develop mechanisms to quantify the impact of MIS on end–usersto promote financial sustainability, by further analysing the mechanism for internal revenue generation by a community/sector-based MISto monitor and evaluate operations of traditional/ informal MIS in order to improve the delivery of support to such systemsfor increased linkages between MIS and statistical services and other related public sector agencies. MIS should foster collaboration with other relevant institutions in order to facilitate efficient data collection and dissemination of information. The 'option-tree' should be explored, which entails exploring various avenues for developing different levels of collaboration as well as public-private sector partnershipsfor CTA to play a catalytic role in promoting the development of MIS and act as the focal point for ACP–MIS networking
