Questionnaire Text
[Province codes for questions 7 and 10 in block VII.A. and question 1 in code VII.B.1 are not presented here]
Q.3. How much farm land area [does the household] have?
____ ha
Question 3: Size of farmland owned
Write the size of the land owned in the space provided in hectares (rounded to the nearest hundredth of a hectare).
Example: Mr. Amin owns a rice field which has an area of 0.75 Ha. One year ago he bought dry land with area of 0.50 Ha. In order to plant a fruit orchard, he rented Mr. Tukul's land that has an area of 1.5 Ha. Since he does not have enough workers to work the rice field, he asked Mr. Hasnawi to work on the rice field on a crop-sharing basis. From the information given above, the calculation of the size of the farmland owned by Mr. Amin would be as follows:
Rice field 0.75 Ha
Dry land 0.50 Ha
Total 1.25 Ha
Dry land 0.50 Ha
Total 1.25 Ha
[pg. 45]
In this case, the land that is rented from Mr. Tukul of 1.5 Ha is not considered as farmland owned by Mr. Amin. However, the rice field of 0.75 Ha that Mr. Hasnawi works with a crop-sharing agreement remains the farmland owned by Mr. Amin.
