Anotace: Unparalleled changes in technology such as remote sensing, mobile devices (e.g. tablets, smartphones), Web

questionnaires, online dissemination of results (e.g. infographics, social media) as well as electronic data archiving
and anonymization of micro-data, are increasingly transforming the way countries conduct agricultural censuses
and sample surveys. Their use facilitate both data collection and data dissemination by enhancing reliability,
timeliness, readability and comprehensibility of census results. This is discussed in Volume 2 of the new FAO
guidelines on the World Programme for Census of Agriculture 2020 (WCA 2020) and summarized in this paper.
