Data Collection Notes
The information for Land and Livestock Holdings survey was collected from a sample of households by the interview method. Each sample household was visited twice during the period of survey with a gap of four to eight months. Two different schedules of enquiry were
canvassed in the two visits.
The survey period for the 59th round survey was the calendar year 2003. To reduce recall error, particulars relating to the entire agricultural year were collected by visiting each sample household twice during the survey period. The first visit to a sample household was made during the period January to August, while the second visit was made during the period September to December. The longer period for the first visit reflected the higher workload for the field staff during this visit compared to the second visit.
The survey period of the round was divided into two sub-rounds. Sub-round one consisted of the first half of the survey period of each visit while sub-round two consisted of the remaining period. Equal numbers of sample villages/blocks were allotted to each sub-round and a village/block was normally surveyed in the sub-round to which it was allotted. Because of arduous field conditions, this restriction was not strictly enforced in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep, and rural areas of Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland.
