The focus of the paper is specifically on how to integrate samples of an agricultural survey and a socio economic household survey in the context of developing countries where an important proportion of households practice agriculture. Advantages and limitations are discussed and an application in Uganda in presented

Why is it important?
When sample surveys have overlapping target populations, it could be cost effective to integrate the sampling designs. This paper discusses the development of such integrated sampling design while taking into account the measurement objectives of the different surveys
Perspectives
This work would be helpful for countries that need regular surveys on different domains but cannot afford the total cost or would like to avoid conflicting estimates from different surveys through an integration of the samples
