Interviewer instructions
Since data items vary depending on the farm activity, the enumerator should get the required details one activity (or one row) at a time.
Description
Text
Activity - contains the different activities involve in onion production such as:
Seedbed preparation - is the process of preparing the soil for sowing of seeds where they are cared for (18-45 days) before they are transplanted.
Preparation of plots - preparing an area of farm to be planted by loosening up the soil and subjecting it to various land preparations such as clearing, plowing, harrowing, furrowing whenever necessary.
Planting - this is the sowing of the seeds either by direct seeding/broadcasting or transplanting the seedlings in straight rows.
Transplanting - transferring of seedlings in another piece of land or paddies at random or in straight rows for further growth.
Broadcasting/Direct seeding - method of crop establishment wherein germinated seeds are broadcasted on paddies.
Thinning - pulling out or removing some seedlings to lessen plant density in a certain area.
Clearing of field - the removal of small trees, pulling of dry roots and weeds, stones and other waste materials in the field.
Plowing - the initial tillage operations in the field to break the soil surface using a plow.
Harrowing - pulverizing and levelling the field with a harrow.
Plotting / Levelling of Plots - involves cultivation of the soil in order to have a leveled, uniform slope.
Sorting / Selection of planting materials - select fully matured and well developed bulbs to get medium to large cloves.
Mulching - a method of maintaining moisture around the plant especially during dry months. This may be accomplished by putting decayed farm wastes or residues around the base of plants. The commonly used mulching materials are rice straws, rice hulls, cut grass, leaves, chopped weeds, and banana stalks.
Weeding - removal or pulling of weeds or unwanted plants which usually grow among cultivated plants.
Fertilizer Application - application of plant nutrient to the proper places in the soil.
Chemical Spraying - application of chemicals to protect the plants from insects, pests and diseases.
Harvesting - pulling individual plants by hand.
Hauling - bringing the produce to the place where it will be temporarily stocked (or to the farmer's house).
Braiding - tying together harvested onion by intertwining their stalks together to form durable handle by which onion can be gripped together in smaller groups of heads.
Drying - a natural method of drying since it relies mainly on solar energy and natural air movement.
Seedbed preparation - is the process of preparing the soil for sowing of seeds where they are cared for (18-45 days) before they are transplanted.
