| Abstract | The Belg Season Crop Production Sample 2003 Survey is a stratified two-stage cluster sample design aimed to produce basic quantitative information on cropland area, production, and yield of major Belg season crops, as well as to provide quantitative information on Cropland area, production, and yield of major Belg season crops and the extent and use of different farm management practices on Belg season crops. The Annual Agricultural Sample Survey (Belg season) covered the entire rural parts of the country except for three zones of Afar regional state and six zones of Somali regional state where its inhabitants are predominantly pastoralists. In this survey, 49,803 agricultural households were actually covered by the Belg season agricultural sample survey. The sample size for the 2003/4 Agricultural Sample Survey was determined by taking into account both the required level of precision for the most important estimates within each domain and the number of resources allocated to the survey. According to 2003/04 (1996 E.C) Belg season crop production sample survey results, it is estimated that major Belg crops covered about 897.42 thousand hectares of land, and a total of 2704.84 thousand quintals of production was obtained at the country level. Out of this total cropland area under Belg crops, the highest which is about 786.55 thousand hectares (87.65%) were under cereals followed by pulses that covered about 101.63 thousand hectares (11.32%), and about 9.24 thousand hectares (1.03%) were covered by oilseed crops. |

| Description | The survey is a cross-sectional two-stage cluster sampling addressing 49,803 agricultural households in Ethiopia. The survey took into account all parts of Harari, Addis Ababa, and Dire Dawa, and 58 additional Zones / Special weredas (that are treated as zones) of other regions. Besides, the survey could not also be accomplished in all the zones of Gambella region. To be covered by the survey, a total of 2,072 enumeration areas were selected initially, however, due to various reasons that are beyond the control of the CSA, a total of 59 EA’s were not covered and the survey was successfully carried out in 2,013 EA’s. Except for Cropland area of major Belg Season Crop, the data of which collected objectively using compasses and measuring tape, the information on the production of major Belg Season crops and agricultural practices (uses of fertilizer, pesticide, improved seed and irrigation) were subjectively collected by interviewing the holders of sampled households. Before starting data entry computer edit specifications were prepared for use on personal computers, utilizing the Integrated Microcomputer Processing System (IMPS) Software for data consistency checking purposes. |
