The objective of the Landscape Diagnostic Survey (LDS) for wheat is to bridge the existing data-gap around current production practices of wheat, and also to help in evidence-based planning. The LDS is designed in a way that data is collected from randomly selected farmers spread uniformly within the Feed the Future (FtF) districs. The data has been collected from farmers largest wheat plot for 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. The surveys for the year 2020, and 2021 were done via phone surveys due to COVID and can be used as panel data with the hhid. Survey questionnaire captures all production practices applied by farmers from land preparation to harvesting, including detailed sections on fertilizer use, weed control and irrigation application. Data is captured through electronically enabled Open Data Kit (ODK) tool on mobile phone or tablet. The sample size for this survey in 2018 is 1577 households, in 2019 is 1207 households, in 2020 is 1028 households, and 953 households for 2021. The inputs use were asked for largest rice grown plots as farms may have multiple plots and inputs use might be different in different plots.
