Data Collection Mode
Face-to-face [f2f]
Three levels of training were conducted before the fieldwork. Training of the Trainers (TOT) was conducted for the members of the Technical Sub-committee at CBN Headquarters, Abuja for one day. Out of 24 officers trained at the first level training, 12
trainers were chosen to handle the second level training in the six geo-political zones of the Federation.
During the second level training, 117 participants comprising Zonal Controllers, State Officers and Field Officers of the National Bureau of Statistics were trained for one day.
The third level training took place in each of the 36 State capitals and FCT where a total of five hundred and fifty five (555) enumerators and one hundred and eighty five (185) supervisors of the National Bureau of statistics were trained for one day.
Data Collection Strategy
The NBS permanent field staff carried out the data collection during the survey year. Each household head or a responsible adult in the household gave information about the household visited.
The field staff included enumerators and supervisors while the field coordinators comprised the State Officers and Zonal ontrollers. Each State Officer coordinated all field operations, while the Zonal Controllers supervised the States in their respective zones.

SUPERVISION/QUALITY CHECK
In order to ensure a high quality data, two phased quality check exercises were put in place. During the first exercise, the officers skim-checked and spot-checked the listing forms and ten selected questionnaires in the selected EAs in each State and FCT. Farmers were randomly selected and visited on their farms to authenticate the data entries made by enumerators.
In the second exercise, the headquarters based quality check was carried out by the highly trained officers from Federal Ministry of Agriculture & Rural Development, Federal Ministry of Commerce, National Bureau of Statistics and the Central Bank of Nigeria. This exercise was carried out in eighteen weak states (i.e. three states per zone) which lasted for three days.
