qgis plugins - Generating random points in selected areas?


I think my question is answered in different posts but I can't really make sense of them.


Background: We are designing a survey of a sample population of farmers to identify the seeds they use. I have a vector layer indicating the land use (irrigated or rainfed). This layer is composed by 16000 polygons spread across the country.


What I need: I want to randomly generate points within this polygons where to survey. More specifically, I want to generate 66 points in every province (provinces are indicated by another vector layer). In other words I want to generate 66 points under two conditions: 1) within province boundaries, 2) within the land use polygons.


I already tried QGIS plugin "Random points" but it seems to crash the program...


How should I proceed?
