2017

385

Households were interviewed in the Kitui and Baringo regions, two regions different in agroecological zone and livelihood strategies.

Kenya

International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI)

2017

169

Respondents were selected through a two-stage, stratified cluster random sampling, one at the ward level and the other at the household level for each county. A random sample of wards is selected with probability proportional to the size of the population and number of households in each ward relative to the total population in all the wards in the counties. The wards are selected randomly from a list of all wards in the counties. The counties represent the strata and when a ward is selected, all the households within the ward are also automatically selected, as in cluster sampling. For this study, a total of 169 households were selected as the representative sample from all the six counties in Western Kenya.
