Reaching Ivorian Farmers Through CATI
Côte d'Ivoire is the world's leading cocoa producer, with millions of smallholder farmers supporting one of Africa's largest agricultural economies. As organizations expand agricultural programs across cocoa, cashew, coffee, and rubber-producing regions, collecting timely and reliable data from farmers becomes increasingly important for monitoring and evaluation (M&E), baseline studies, and impact assessments. However, reaching farming communities spread across diverse production zones often requires significant time, resources, and field coordination.
At CATI Africa, our Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) services provide a more efficient way to engage farmers. By conducting structured telephone interviews, we help organizations gather high-quality agricultural data without the delays and costs associated with large-scale field deployments. Whether supporting cocoa sustainability initiatives in Daloa or cashew development programs in Korhogo, our CATI solutions deliver reliable insights that strengthen evidence-based decision-making.
Supporting Agricultural Research, Monitoring and Evaluation
For M&E and baseline studies, CATI helps researchers and organizations:
- Reach farmers across major agricultural production zones efficiently
- Reduce fieldwork costs and operational complexities
- Conduct surveys during key harvesting and production cycles
- Deliver timely data for faster reporting and program decisions
Across Côte d'Ivoire, organizations are increasingly adopting CATI for:
- Cocoa sustainability and certification assessments
- Cashew value chain monitoring
- Agricultural baseline and endline surveys
- Farmer livelihood and income assessments
The outcome is timely, dependable data that supports better program monitoring, stronger evaluations, and more informed agricultural decision-making.
At CATI Africa, we help governments, NGOs, development partners, agribusinesses, and research organizations collect high-quality agricultural data through professional telephone interviewing, enabling them to monitor impact and deliver program with greater confidence.
