The study will be conducted using both qualitative and quantitative research methods. Study areas that have salinity levels of groundwater above the threshold limits for electrical conductivity (>1000.0 mg/L) and chlorides (> 250 mg/L) will be considered. Respondents for both the qualitative and quantitative research methods will be selected, separately. For the qualitative design, eight (8) respondents will be interviewed personally using an interview schedule. On the other hand, the quantitative method will be conducted by random sampling. The number of respondents will be based on the total population of qualified study areas. A questionnaire will be constructed, validated, and piloted.
Analysis of the gathered data for the qualitative design will be analyzed using Anthropac and Nvivo for qualitative data while the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software will be used for the quantitative research design.
Before the actual data gathering, ethical considerations will be followed where the proposal will be submitted to an Ethical Review Board.
