To test the questionnaire, a pre-survey was conducted among 20 farmers
who were not included in the final survey. The pre-survey aimed to
evaluate the feasibility of the questionnaire draft, the time needed for
planning the survey, and whether the results were in line with the
survey goals. Based on the results, the questionnaire draft was slightly
edited, resulting in the final questionnaire.
For the final questionnaire, 174 farmers were surveyed in eight
districts at different elevations along the UCRB (Figure 1), i.e.
Lembang (n=26), Cihampelas (n=32), Solokan Jeruk (n=28), Ciparay (n=18),
Majalaya (n=20), Pacet (n=7), Pangalengan (n=12), and Ciwidey (n=31).
The survey was conducted between January and March 2016. For every
location, we were accompanied by a local guide who was known in the
local community and farmers were selected by walking the area and
randomly selecting farms to visit.
