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.
