Questions and instructions
Area planted (ha)
Record in hectares and in four (4) decimal places the area planted to the harvested crop.
If the respondent cannot give at once the required area, explain to him that the figure being asked for is only the area planted to corn that was harvested during the reference quarter. If he still finds difficulty in giving the required answer, resort to deeper probing by asking questions on farm activities paid on per-hectare basis such as tractor fee. Another option is to ask for the quantity of seeds used and the planting method to derive the area accordingly. Again, this derivation technique can be done only by the SR in consultation with the PSA supervisor. Try to confirm from the respondent if he finds the result within the acceptable range.
