National Integrated Household Survey Program in Ethiopia

The basic information collected in community questionnaire are ; types of crops grown in that area in different seasons, irrigation data, disease prevalence in the area, agro ecological zone of the area and information about availability of root crops, spices and special crops in the EAs.

CSA Ethiopia has been using and still uses list frame approach to collect agricultural data. That is list of EA’s are used as PSU’s and list of HHs as SSU. But the work load in the list frame approach has an impact on the quality of data. In addition, using number of households for estimation of agricultural data some times may not be relevant.
