Respondents: Data were collected on the quantities of olives pressed and olive oil extracted on a daily basis. This was to ensure reliable and accurate figures on the\nimportant indicators. Field workers visited the olive presses daily to check if data had been reported fully and correctly.\n2. Field workers: A series of actions were implemented to support the accuracy of data collection through the following:\nA. Selection of a specialized field work team trained theoretically and practically on the survey questionnaire for five days.\nB. The main field work team was selected based on the training course.\nC. Different levels of supervision and monitoring took place according to the following hierarchy:\n- Field workers: field workers for this survey were distributed throughout all governorates.\n- Field work supervisors: supervisors were distributed in the north, middle, and south of the West Bank.\n- Field work coordinator.\n3. Data entry operators: To ensure the quality and consistency of data, a series of measures were implemented, including:\n The setting up of a data entry program prior to data collection to check the operation of the program.\n A set of validation rules were applied in the program to check the consistency of data.\nThe efficiency of the program was checked through pre-testing by entering a few questionnaires, including incorrect information to monitor efficiency in capturing\nerroneous data.\n Well-trained data entry personnel were selected and trained for the main data entry phase.\n Data files were sent to the project management to be checked for accuracy and consistency.
