Questions and instructions
Literal question

Interviewer instructions
Write in the space provided the number of bearing trees/hills/vines reported by farm/farmer-producer for this crop during the reference period of this year. This should be filled out for permanent crops only.
The estimate on the number of bearing trees/hills/vines to be reported for the semester should cover for the said reference period of the current year regardless of the date of collection. That is, the estimate for the First Semester of the current year should be for January to June even if the collection date is in May of the current year.
Check the acceptability of the bearing trees per hectare in comparison with the level in the series or parameters. It should be within the range or there should not be significant difference in bearing trees per hectare. Verify with the respondent for those with significant difference. There may be underestimation or overestimation in any or either of the area or number of bearing trees.
Verify by computing the number of bearing trees per hectare referring to the area for the year when the youngest bearing trees were planted. Bearing age of trees vary by crop. The resulting number of bearing tree per hectare should not be far from the province specific parameter. Note that there are still non-bearing trees planted in an area which shall result to a lower number of bearing trees per hectare. Unless the trees in the area given are all bearing.
Be conscious that some trees may not have borne fruit this period but has borne fruits in the past. Do not count the trees that have grown and reached bearing age but has not borne fruit. Count the trees that have borne fruit in the past and which may not have borne fruit this period.
Note that that there are still non-bearing trees planted in an area which shall result to a lower number of bearing trees per hectare. Unless the trees in the area given are all bearing.
