| What type of sampling design will be used for the horticultural crops survey? | stratifi ed multistage random sampling | Th e sampling design to be adopted for the survey will be stratifi ed multistage random sampling. • First of all, important districts are to be identifi ed for conducting sur- vey on the basis of district-wise area fi gures for fruits and vegetables of the state. Th e identifi ed districts, that is, more productive districts covering about 70–80% of the total area for fruits and vegetables in the entire state to be treated as one stratum and rest of the districts, that is, less productive districts to form another stratum. From stra- tum one, about 40% districts out of the total number of districts and two districts from stratum two will be selected by simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR). 9780199466726 Horticultural Statistics_01_Ch-01.indd 5 9780199466726 Horticultural Statistics_01_Ch-01.indd 5 11/18/2015 8:43:14 AM 11/18/2015 8:43:14 AM | 58 | definition | 1.000 | https://nhb.gov.in/statistics/Publication/hortstat_glance.pdf | Th e sampling design to be adopted for the survey will be stratifi ed multistage random sampling. | 31 | page=31,block=11 | ||

| What benefit can timely robust information in the horticulture sector provide to Indian citizens? | improve the socioeconomic conditions of Indian citizens by providing self-reliance besides environmental protection | Other fruits which have attained signifi cant position in exports are banana and mango. Exports of fresh vegetables (such as peas, potatoes) have been on the rise. export of fresh onion has declined from 17 to 12.4 lakh tonnes over the last three years (see Table 10.1.13). Th e development achieved in the horticulture sector is indicative of the fact that there is growing demand for horticulture produce. Th e past experience have been rewarding for enhanced output from the investment. Availability of timely robust information in this sector will certainly improve the socioeconomic conditions of Indian citizens by providing self-reliance besides environmental protection. 1 H.R. | 562 | relationship | 0.970 | https://nhb.gov.in/statistics/Publication/hortstat_glance.pdf | Availability of timely robust information in this sector will certainly improve the socioeconomic conditions of Indian citizens by providing self-reliance besides environmental protection. | 41 | page=41,block=0 | ||
| What determines the choice between using LISS III and LISS IV satellite data? | the spatial extent of the crop | Area assessment will be carried out for the selected crops in the selected districts of major states. Th e crops will be selected based on the production share, as mentioned in section 1. Accordingly, following crops and study area are being proposed. Satellite data to be used are either of LISS III (23.5 m resolution) or LISS IV, depending upon the spatial extent of the crop. In the absence of availability of Indian satellite data during the crop growth, foreign satellite data will also be explored. | 348 | relationship | 0.970 | https://nhb.gov.in/statistics/Publication/hortstat_glance.pdf | Satellite data to be used are either of LISS III (23.5 m resolution) or LISS IV, depending upon the spatial extent of the crop. | 29 | page=29,block=3 | 0.700 | valid |
