The census covers rural households; families engaging in agricultural, forestry, salt production, and fishery activities in urban areas; and agro-forestry-fishery farms.
It will collect information about agricultural production and support activities, along with data on rural areas such as structural changes of the rural workforce, rural socio-economic infrastructure, climate change impacts and environmental hygiene.
Information about rural residents will also be gathered, including their living conditions, access to bank loans, vocational training and their job demand.
The census is to serve the design of plans and strategies for developing agriculture and rural areas and raising rural residents’ living standards nationwide. It also helps assess outcomes of the national target programmes on new-style rural area building, and the industrialisation and modernisation of agriculture and rural areas.
