Questions and instructions
Literal question
Quantity Produced - Ears of Matured Corn (14% moisture content): Total Number of Ears
Interviewer instructions
Determine the number of ears harvested that reached full maturity and indicate it on the space provided.
Take note that the information being asked for is the household's total harvest from all the parcels it operates. To ascertain whether the respondent has given the required figure especially when production was derived from several parcels, use probing questions as:
"Is it the farm's gross production for the quarter?"
OR
"Does it include those paid to harvesters, shellers and other farm laborers and those wasted during shelling and hauling the harvest?"
If the respondent's initial reply refers to NET rather than gross harvest, make the necessary recomputations and include portion of the harvest that was earlier disposed but not accounted for by the respondent.
