Interviewer instructions
<span class="h3"> Section 5: Agricultural Module</span></p>

<p>210. This section asks questions of major agricultural activities undertaken by household members. Ask if any member in the household is engaged in agricultural activities like the cultivation of crops and the rearing of animals such as sheep, goats, chickens etc. If any member is engaged in Agricultural activity (ies) record '1' for "yes" in A1. If no member is engaged in agricultural activity (ties) record '2' and skip to section VI.</p>

<p>211. If there is only one member engaged in agricultural activity, the household is considered as being engaged in Agricultural activity. Always make sure that you verify that no member in the household is engaged in agricultural activity before doing you entries. Some people may think that being engaged in agricultural activity means doing large farming or only has to do with the planting of crops. Explained to the respondent what 'being engaged' in agricultural activity really means in order to get the correct response.</p>

<p><span class="em">A4- Production</span>
<br />214. Ask for the quantity produce and the unit of measurement. Record the quantity produced and describe the unit of measurement against the crop produced.</p>

<p>215. Do not write in the space provided for unit code. This variable will be coded at the office.</p>

<p>216. Below are units of measurement and codes</p>
<div class="i1">- Bushel (Rice, Groundnut, Maize, Cashew) Unit code = 1<br />- Bulgur Bag (60 Kg) (For Cassava, Sweet Potato, Citrus) Unit code = 2<br />- Rice Bag (50 Kg) Unit code = 3<br />- Rice Bag (25 KG) Unit code = 4<br />- Bucket (34 Cm) Unit code = 5<br />- Butter Cup Unit code = 6<br />- Jute Bag/Banga bag (Coffee, Cacao) Unit code = 7<br />- Onion Bag (25 Kg) (Vegetables) Unit code = 8<br />- Batta (Palm Oil) Unit code = 9</div><span class="em">Annex 3: Agricultural module guide (section 5) major agricultural activities undertaken by the household</span></p>
