“…The results obtained in this study agree with those found by Rossetti et al (2020Rossetti et al ( , 2021 sizing cashew nut samples using this methodology. When comparing sampling methods used in similar situations to those of the present research, Sabino and Villaça (1999) and Rossetti (2001) among others, concluded that the use of this technique afforded results than those found using other sampling methods.…”

“…Using these methodological principles, Rossetti et al (2014) estimated sample size to assess the average weight of cashew nuts. Similarly, Rossetti et al (2019Rossetti et al ( , 2020Rossetti et al ( , 2021 used this methodology to estimate the size of cashew nut samples based on the weight of the nut and the type of clone.…”

The aim of this study was to estimate sample size for the physical and physico- chemical characteristics of the peduncles and nuts of the cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) as an aid in research using classical analytical methods and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Sample sizes were estimated by means of uniform stratified sampling, comprising six strata (S1, S2, ..., S6) corresponding to the clones A+C 276/1, BRS 226, CCP 76, HI58-92-2, PRO 553/2 and PRO 555/2. Determining the size of the sample for each stratum depends on the variance of the characteristic under evaluation and the accepted margin of error B of the estimates, or on the desired precision in the results. The greater the variance of the stratum, the greater the size of the sample, the smaller the acceptable margin of error of the estimates, and the greater the desired precision of the results. For an error B = 0.2 g, the sample size for nuts of the A+C276/1 clone (stratum S1), with variance s2 = 5.1568, was n1 = 30 nuts. For firmness, with B = 0.50 N, the sample size for the PRO 555/2 clone (S6) was n6 = 22 peduncles. For vitamin C, which presented the highest variances, the sample size of the BRS 226 clone (S2), with B = 10 mg100-1g, was n2 = 38 peduncles. The variables pH, soluble solids, titratable acidity and soluble sugars presented the smallest variances, giving the smallest sample sizes for each of the clones.
