Serial number of agricultural holdings

Description

Definition

Agricultural Holding:
An economic unit of agricultural production under single management comprising all kept livestock and all land used totally or partially for agricultural production purposes regardless of legal form or size. Single management may be exercised by an individual or household, jointly by two or more individuals or households, by a clan or tribe, or by a juridical person such as a corporation, cooperative, or government agency. The land of the holding may consist of one or more parcels located in one or more separate areas, or in one or more territorial or administrative divisions, providing the parcels share the same means of production such as labour, farm buildings, machinery, or draught animals.

Imputation and derivation

Imputation

The data from the questionnaires were edited in the field during the enumeration process by supervisors in each governorate.

Derivation

Crops were coded according to the Indicative Crop Classification (ICC) for 2010. This classification was developed based on the Central Product Classification (CPC) (UN, 2004a). ICC provides only a broad-level structure for the classification of crops. Taking account of national conditions in the Palestine, some crops not included in ICC are identified separately or crops were identified in more detail than given in ICC.
