7 METHODOLOGICAL EXPLANATIONS, CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE 2010 INTRODUCTION The Census of Agriculture was conducted from 7 to 21 June 2010 in accordance with the Law on Census of Agriculture 2010 (published in the Official Gazette of Montenegro 54/09, and 14/10). The enumeration of family agricultural holdings was conducted by the interview door-to-door method. The data were collected by the enumerators selected by the Agency for Selection and Payment (ASA Institut the contractor from Cologne, German and Montenegrin Company Praxis Montenegro), and trained by the Statistical Office of Montenegro Monstat who prepared methodology and questionnaires. Business subjects were enumerated by the postal method. The data on business subjects shall be published later. The methodology is harmonised with the Regulation (EC) No 1166/2008; Handbook on implementing the FSS and SAPM definitions. From 25 June to 5 July 2010 Statistical Office of Montenegro Monstat conducted the post enumeration survey Quality and Coverage Control of Agricultural Census. The methodology for the quality data control from the Census of Agriculture was drafted by Mr. Bruno Massoli under the Midas project. The results from the post enumeration survey showed that the Census was conducted in accordance with the methodology and that deviations in coverage and data quality collected by the census and post enumeration survey are statistically insignificant, i.e. they are within the satisfying deviation intervals.
