Interviewer instructions
<span class="h3">Part E of the questionnaire</span></p>
<p>179. Columns E1-E7: Agriculture and land acquisition, and household cash activities, ICT equipment, and internet access</p>
<p>For some of the questions in this section, you may circle more than one code, if more than one response applies, i.e. for those whose codes are multiples of 2. </p>
<p>These questions relate only to members of the household - i.e. those listed in columns A1 and B1 but excluding any visitors listed in A1. Include also household members who normally would have spent the census night with the household but who were temporarily elsewhere in Botswana. For example, the usual head of household could be away on business during the census period, but he/she might be the only income earner for the household. Since he/she was not present in the household during the census, his/her employment would not be recorded in Part A and it would appear that the household had no source of income. However, the fact that the household receives income from his/her employment will be recorded in E5, E6 and E7.
<br />Note that questions in Part E of the questionnaire relate only to activities within Botswana. For example, if a household member who is temporarily living in another country (and is therefore listed in Part B), has planted maize outside Botswana, that agricultural activity will not be recorded in column E2. If the same person owns cattle inside Botswana, then that ownership will be recorded in column E1.</p>
<p>The relevant portion of the sample questionnaire is shown on page 80.</p>
<p>182. Column E3: Ownership/access to land used for planting
<br />Q. Does any member of this household own or have access to land used for planting?
<br />The objective of this question is to know whether the household owns the land used for planting or if the household borrowed/rented land used for planting. If the household borrowed/rented the land used for planting, this implies that the household does not own land but rather has access to the land used for planting.</p>
<p>Circle 1, 2, 3, for yes (own), yes (access) or no respectively depending on the answer provided by the respondent. If the response is no then go to E5.</p>
<p>183. Column E4: Land acquisition
<br />Q. How was the land(s) used for planting acquired?
<br />If a member of the household owns or has access to land used for planting, then ask how the land was acquired. Circle the appropriate answer code(s).</p>
<div class="i1">1. Land board<br />2. Tribal <br />4. Inheritance<br />8. Freehold<br />16. Lease<br />32. TGLP<br />64. Syndicate<br />128. Employer/Relative<br />256. Self-allocated</div><p>1. Land board
<br />These are plots/fields used for planting which were allocated by land boards at the district level. The enumerator should note that there are no land boards in towns, therefore any response of land board in towns would be incorrect.
<br />2. Tribal
<br />These are plots/fields used for planting purposes which were allocated by tribal authorities (dikgosi or dikgosana) a long time ago before the formation of land boards.
<br />4. Inheritance
<br />These are plots/fields for planting acquired by inheritance regardless of means of previous acquisition. For example, any individual may inherit land from parents, relatives, etc.
<br />8. Freehold
<br />These are plots/fields used for planting acquired through purchasing land. The land is held in absolute ownership rather than a fixed period such as in the case of state land (i.e. Tuli Block Farms, etc.).
<br />16. Lease
<br />Land acquired through this policy entitles the owner a lease for a specified period of time.
<br />32. TGLP
<br />This is the land acquired through the Tribal Grazing Land Policy (TGLP). Examples of TGLP farms are Hainveld farms/ranches, farms in the Ncojane area, farms around the Lentsweletau area, etc.
<br />64. Syndicate
<br />A syndicate is a group of two or more people who collectively acquire a plot/field/farm. Usually, there is a mutual agreement (constitution) reached among the group on how to operate a farm/piece of land.
<br />128. Employer/Relative
<br />This is a situation whereby an individual has access to plant crops in a field that belongs to the employer (master)/relative. An example is that of a herd boy who might borrow some land to plant crops in his/her master's field.
<br />256. Self-Allocated
<br />This is the situation where an individual has accessed land for planting where no land authority (land authority implies any of the above listed categories of land acquisition) has made any allocation.
