The African Commission on Agricultural Statistics (AFCAS) is a statutory body of FAO and meets every two years. AFCAS brings together senior statistics officials from FAO member countries of the African continent, who are responsible for the development of agricultural statistics in their respective countries. They review and exchange ideas on the state of food and agricultural statistics in the continent and advise member countries on the development of their agricultural statistical systems within FAO's Programme of Work and Budget for Africa.
The Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) organized the 26th Session of the African Commission on Agricultural Statistics (AFCAS) which took place, from 4 to 8 November 2019 in Libreville (Gabon).
