Abstract:
Field research can be associated with both qualitative and quantitative research methods, depending on the problems faced and the goals to be achieved. The success of data collection in the field research depends on the determination of the appropriate sampling technique, to obtain accurate data, and reliably. In studies that have problems related to specific issues, requiring a non-probability sampling techniques one of which is the snowball sampling technique. This technique is useful for finding, identifying, selecting and taking samples in a network or chain of relationships. Phased implem

Abstract:
Snowball sampling (SS) is one of the popular methods of sampling in social research. The history of the development and implementation of this sampling model sheds light on the conditions of the evolution of the idea of sampling from hidden or hard-to-reach human populations. The seemingly uncomplicated procedure is the source of the method's popularity but also leads to its caricatured forms. This article presents selected elements of the theoretical basis of snowball sampling in its original version and its role in the development of theory related to sampling hard-to-reach populations based

Snowball sampling, where existing study subjects recruit further subjects from amongtheir acquaintances, is a popular approach when sampling from hidden populations.Since people with many in-links are more likely to be selected, there will be a selectionbias in the samples obtained. In order to eliminate this bias, the sample data must beweighted. However, the exact selection probabilities are unknown for snowball samplesand need to be approximated in an appropriate way.

Consequently, it is important to assess those farmers who belong to micro and small enterprises in the agricultural sector. Due to the

For the latter sampling method, we design what we refer to as a controlled snowball sampling design, which selects nodes in a manner analogous to a respondent-driven sampling design.

Hidden populations, such as irregular migrants, often elude traditional probabilistic sampling methods. In situations like these, chain-referral sampling techniques like Respondent-Driven Surveys (RDS) offer an effective solution. RDS, a variant of network sampling sometimes referred to as “snowball” sampling, estimates weights based on the network structures of friends and acquaintances formed during the sampling process. This ensures the samples are representative of the larger population. However, one significant limitation of these methods is the rigidity of the weights. When faced with pa
