METHODOLOGY
This required that three different types of questionnaires were administered, namely; household questionnaire, community group template (used
during the FGDs), and biophysical assessment template. Feedbacks were obtained from the enumerators on their field experiences were used to
improve the data collection process until the completion of the field exercise. A minimum of two follow-up outings was arranged at the
household and community levels to ensure no important data were left out. Although a biophysical study template was used, most biophysical
data were obtained from primary data gathering techniques, instrument-aided assessments and measurements, modeling and incorporation of
proof-checked existing reports. Multiple sampling techniques were used to confirm or clear gray areas in the biophysical assessments.

Measures were taken through retooling and review to develop statistically-useful sampling frames for the surveys both at community and
household levels in order to achieve the objectives outlined in Components 1–4 (Section 1.3). The field survey plan ensured the hiring and
training of interviewers to carry out the survey in the project areas with a clear understanding of watershed configurations. A choice was made
on the use of the SPSS statistical package because of its wide data management scope.
