IntroducingObjectiveMeasurementstoAssessAgriculturalLand

Acknowledgingthesubjectivebiasesassociatedwithfarmerrecalldata,oneapproachtomitigatethisisbyintroducing

objectiveareameasurement.Traditionally,objectiveareameasurementinvolveslandsurveyingtodelineateagriculturalparcelsusingthetape-and-compassapproach(FAO,1982).Thismethodentailsmeasuringeachsideoftheparcel

methodisconsideredthe“goldstandard”foragriculturalareameasurement(Carlettoetal.,2016).

objectivelymeasuringagriculturalparcels.Thestudyfindingsindicatedthatthesemethodsalignedwellwiththe

“goldstandard”ofmeasurementand,onaverage,weremor
