Analysis of Research Finding of Actual survey
From the research, the findings indicated the fact that the total number of participants in
the survey were between the ages of 20-29 years where the number of respondents was 55. The
research helps in analyzing the preferences and choices of various organic snacks among the
participants (Bononi, Quaglia & Tateo, 2015). As per the results, 29% of the respondents
preferred to taste sweet potatoes while 10% of the total respondents preferred to taste the
pumpkin. It has been observed from the pie chart that carrot is a list preferred fruit that
comprised of 2% of the respondents.

Furthermore, the survey also examined the main reason behind purchasing organic
snacks. It has found from the result that 29% of the total respondents’ buy organic snacks due to
affordability prices that shows how much cheaper are organic food as compared to non-organic
foods (Islam, Rahman, Rahman & Naidu, 2017). Whereas, 10% among the total respondents
buys organic snacks due to their taste and 10% buys organic snacks to follow a diet. Health is
considered to be the least preferred choice that consists of 6% among the total respondents.

Part D
Result
Both the survey was based on preferences or choices of respondents to buy organic foods
from the market. It has been observed from the analysis of the research findings that the pilot
survey was conducted between the age group of 13 to 52 whereas, the actual survey was
conducted between the age group of 13-50. The total number of respondents in the pilot survey
was near about 100 while the participants participated in the actual survey was 55. In the pilot
survey, most of the respondents are between the age group of 18 to 27, whereas in the actual
survey most of the respondents were between the age group of 20-29 (Moscetti et al., 2018).
These age groups are from the younger generation and are considered to be the most active age

group among the respondents. Another difference is that the pilot survey consists of eight
questions while the actual survey possesses five questions that were asked to the participants.
Most of the questions in the pilot survey differ from the questions presented in the actual survey.
There has been a great improvement in the actual survey questions as compared to the
questions that were presented in the pilot survey. The questions in the pilot survey were
generally based on the likes and dislikes of the organic and non-organic vegetables that do not
provides sufficient information about organic snacks. On the other hand, actual survey questions
were entirely based on choices or preferences from organic snacks (Bryła, 2017). The questions
help in gaining knowledge about choosing organic snacks instead of non-organic snacks.
Therefore, the pie chart presents the results of the questions.
