There is no direct switch for applying a sampling rate. However, the quickest
way is a local hack of ft2nfdump.c for the sake of converting:

ft2nfdump.c multiply the packets/bytes by your ampling rate:
make line 287/287 look like:

        record.dOctets      = *((uint32_t*)(rec+fo.dOctets)) * 1000;
        record.dPkts        = *((uint32_t*)(rec+fo.dPkts)) * 1000;

and add after line 257:

        SetFlag(record.flags, , FLAG_SAMPLED);

recompile and covert your files.

Done.
