This paper aims at studing on a multi-purpose sampling design involving both a farm population survey and a livestock survey. Some features of this design are firstly to equalize the sampling errorsamong Shi-Gun (county) estimates, secondly, to make an efforts to increase the precision by introducing a purpose sample into the probability sample. There are two types of purpose samples according to sampling units; one is farm, the otheris enumeration district. A criterion of demarcation for selecting the farm purposesamle was investigated.
