The field staff is periodically trained in the conduct of crop cutting experiments. The number of experiments and their distribution over the strata are made in a manner to be able to obtain the yield rate estimates with a fair degree of precision at the level of the State and each major crop-growing district. These weights form the basic data for yield estimation. The experiment consists of marking the plot and harvesting and weighing the produce from the plot. The survey design adopted is that of a stratified three stage random sampling with tehsil or taluka as the stratum, a village as the first stage unit, a field growing the specified crop as the second stage unit and a plot, usually 5m x 5m, as the ultimate unit. Around 5,00,000 experiments are conducted every year with the help of State revenue and agricultural staff of a rank higher than the primary field staff of the departments. The GCES covers around 68 crops (52 food and 16 non-food) in 22 States and 4 Union Territories. The yield rate estimates are based on scientifically designed crop cutting experiments conducted under the General Crop Estimation Survey (GCES). 4.3.1 Estimates of crop production are obtained by multiplying the area under crop and the yield rate.
