Abstract

The specific objectives of the rapid appraisal were to inform the policy dialogue about the evolution of the agricultural economy in northern Mozambique, especially since the end of rural violence in October 1992, and to help focus a future research agenda in the region. This report serves two functions: to outline more fully the rapid appraisal's goals and objectives, relating the mission to insights gathered over the life of the FSP; and to describe and analyze data obtained in the mission, with an emphasis on how these initial insights may be used to guide future FSP research activities in northern Mozambique over the next two years.
