ABSTRACT

Promoting evidence-based agricultural policy planning and implementation processes through peer review, dialogue, benchmarking, and the adoption of best practices is critical to strengthening mutual accountability for actions and results in the implementation of the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Programme (CAADP) process. The maiden Swaziland agriculture sector JSR was conducted to collectively review the effectiveness of policies and institutions in the sector, the status and quality of the JSR process itself, and the extent to which intended results and outcomes in the sector are being realized. This assessment, the first relating to Swaziland, will serve as a baseline for future JSR assessments for the agriculture sector. The JSR assessment process involved an official launch by the Minister of Agriculture (Hon. Moses Vilakati), a desk review of documents, engagements with agriculture sector stakeholders, a report validation workshop, and internal and external appraisals of this JSR report.
