National coverage
Households
The statistical unit was the agricultural holding, defined as an economic unit of agricultural production under single management comprising all livestock kept and land used wholly or partly for agricultural production purposes, without regard to title, legal form or size. When two or more persons jointly operated a holding on an equal basis, all such persons were considered as holders and their information was recorded on the holding form. In this case, the required information on the holder's household was to be collected for each household of the joint holders, using a single holding questionnaire.
Census/enumeration data [cen]
Reference period: calendar year 2007, for temporary crops, machinery and equipment used on holding, agricultural practices and labour force working on the holding, etc.
Face-to-face [f2f]
For census-taking purposes the country was divided into 288 enumeration districts (EDs), each containing approximately 100 households. Each ED was entrusted to one enumerator, who was required to canvass the assigned ED identifying all households within it and applying a household questionnaire (a short form). The household questionnaire was designed as a screening form to identify holdings above the thresholds, as well as a means to collect information from small holdings below the thresholds. Each household identified as having a holding completed a holding form. The second questionnaire, the "holding questionnaire" (a long form), was applied to all holdings above the threshold. Non-household holdings were separately enumerated, using the holding questionnaire.
