The survey was designed and supervised by the World Bank team and conducted by the Development Policy Group in Bangladesh. The survey, by design, focused on major pesticide intensive crops such as Boro (winter rice), potato, bean, eggplant, cabbage, sugarcane and mango. To provide greater depth, 68 randomly-selected farmers who currently use Integrated Pest Management (IPM) were also interviewed. The sample was geographically stratified among 11 districts of Bangladesh as: Bogra, Chapainawabganj, Rajshahi, and Rangpur districts in the Rajshahi division (Northwest); Chittagong and Comilla in the Chittagong division (East); Jessore in the Khulna division (West); and Kishoreganj, Munshiganj, Narsingdi, and Mymensingh in the Dhaka division.\n\nTo minimize reporting bias, the survey was implemented under the agreement that the team would not reveal the identity of the farms surveyed or the respondents who participated.","coll_dates":[{"start":"2003","end":"2003","cycle":""}],"nation":[{"name":"Bangladesh","abbreviation":"BGD"}],"geog_coverage":"Regional coverage","analysis_unit":"Individuals","data_kind":"Sample survey data [ssd]","notes":"The scope of the Bangladesh Pesticide Use Survey 2003 includes area, pesticide application, health, and environment."},"method":{"data_collection":{"coll_mode":"Face-to-face [f2f]","research_instrument":"The questionnaire for the Bangladesh Pesticide Use Survey 2003 includes the following sections:\nSection 1: Area and property information\nSection 2: Personal general information of respondents\nSection 3: Owner\/manager\/lessee (non-applicator) - Application, Knowledge, Protection, Interval, Social feedback, Health, Environment\nSection 4: Applicator - Application, Knowledge, Protection, Interval, Social feedback, Health, Environment\nSection 5: Owner\/manager\/lessee & applicator - Application, Knowledge, Protection, Interval, Social feedback, Health, Environment\nSection 6: Interviewer debriefing\n\nThe questionnaire is provided as external resources."}},"data_access":{"dataset_use":{"conf_dec":[{"txt":"See https:\/\/microdata.worldbank.org\/index.php\/terms-of-use","required":"yes","form_no":"","uri":""}],"cit_req":"Use of the dataset must be acknowledged using a citation which would include:\n- the Identification of the Primary Investigator\n- the title of the survey (including acronym and year of implementation)\n- the survey reference number\n- the source and date of download\n\nExample:\n\nSusmita Dasgupta, The World Bank.
