For
the preparation of nutrition profiles in each state,
all the blocks of each district are to covered. From each block
in Sikkim and North Eastern states, two villages, one upto a
population of 500 and another of above 500 were
selected by using probability proportional
to size (PPS) sampling. In Goa and the two
Union Territories, however, the division was for population of
below 1000 and above 1000. In each selected village, 20 households were
selected by using the cluster sampling method were the village is divided into
different areas or clusters of houses and five such clusters
were selected randomly, one among them being from SC/ST
category, where present. From selected clusters the required number
of contiguous households with random start were surveyed.
In
addition to rural sample, an urban
sample of 25 percent was also covered in each district.
For this, district headquarters and a requisite number of
randomly selected ward or wards, 20 contiguous households with random
start were surveyed. The fieldwork
was undertaken by local field
functionaries recruited with the assistance of
State Government Departments of Social Welfare/Health.
The PFNDAI staff and Food and Nutrition Board
officials were involved in the training of the local field staff.
