Interviewer instructions

Item 6: If '1' or '2' in item 5.6, type of seeds (certified - 1, uncertified - 2, home grown - 3, other - 4): Improved seed bought from other sources are usually uncertified. Normally, the farmers tend to use the certified seeds even after some generation of cultivation. Use of such improved seeds will not get code '1'. They will be assigned code '3' if the seeds used are grown on their own fields. In all other cases of use of improved seeds code '4' (i.e., 'others') will be recorded in this item. This item will be crossed if the code in Item 5.6 is other than '1' or '2'.
