However, measurement uncertainty and choice of sampling strategy can influence the outcomes of assessment programmes. This chapter provides a sampler of calculations of population statistics, required sample sizes and approaches to developing and implementing a sampling strategy. While examples from the fresh produce sector are given, the sampler is of relevance to both the student and the practitioner operating in agri-supply chains more generally UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/97600 UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/61519/1/9781801462471_web.pdf ER -
