Resumen
Descripción
Much of the required information for the agricultural sector, such as crop production, livestock inventories, and basic social and economic data, is obtained through periodic national, multi-purpose agricultural data collection programmes called "Current Agricultural Surveys".
This manual describes the sample design, organization and implementation procedures for these current agricultural surveys using multiple frame probability sampling methods, which is a new methodology currently being adopted by many countries around the world. Specific case studies will be presented in Volume II.
This handbook introduces the subject and describes the practical aspects of list and area frame construction and sample selection methods while recognizing the resource and specialized staff constraints faced by developing countries.
