This allowed for remote entry of the information collected during the census fieldwork, to perform the corresponding validations online and to execute the final storage in devices, all the while delivering the necessary security levels given the nature of the information processed. Data entry, validation and processing were carried out simultaneously in the 15 regions, which were divided into 61 census areas, each equipped with computers connected to the Internet by means of broadband connections.\n\n(b) CENSUS DATA QUALITY\nDuring the field data collection, two validation manuals were used (\"Correction Guidelines\"): (i) the first manual, for enumerators, included instructions on dealing with inconsistencies in filling in the questionnaire; (ii) the second manual, for supervisors, provided instructions on verifying the consistency of the information, etc. The validation manuals were applied both to the main census form and to the annexes formulated for \"extreme\" zones.","research_instrument":"For data collection, one questionnaire was used (which contained 451 questions grouped into 17 sections):\n\nSection i : general background\nSection ii : annual crops and fodder\nSection iii.

In April 2008, microdata were released at the regional level, ensuring due protection of statistical secrecy.2 The final tabulations, at national and regional level, were made available on the institutional website in April 2008.
