Sampling
Surveys are designed based on country-specific needs, objectives, and constraints. They aim to achieve a 10 percent margin of error, a 95 percent confidence level, administrative-level granularity, and sufficient sample sizes for key target populations, including agricultural households.
The DIEM Round 1 survey was conducted in the West Bank; it applied a stratified sampling approach limited to FAO beneficiary households from 2019 to 2023. The sample was designed to be representative of this target group across eight governorates. Three governorates — Qalqilya, Salfit, and Tulkarm — were merged into a single stratum due to small sample sizes. A total of 1323 interviews were completed, with minimum required samples reached in all strata except Jericho. The sample was skewed towards agricultural households, particularly livestock producers, due to the nature of past FAO input distribution programs.
Sample weights were manually computed using population distribution data for FAO beneficiaries and livelihood engagement categories (crop vs. livestock producers). Adjustments were made using an external weight table to reflect proportional representation across strata. Manual verification of income sources (e.g., resp_islsproducer, resp_iscropproducer) was conducted using the original hh_agricactivity_raw variable due to classification inconsistencies. Final weights were included in the cleaned dataset for proper aggregation of indicators.
