Description

AGLANDYN (HV244) indicates whether any member of the household owned (or had use of) agricultural land. Question wording varies across samples; see Comparability.

The information in AGLANDYN is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2") when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis, and using the HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, AGLANDYN (HV244) is largely comparable across most samples. Most commonly, interviewers asked, "Does any member of this household own any agricultural land?" Samples with substantial differences in question wording are discussed below.

Comparability - Standard DHS

AGLANDYN (HV244) is included in the standard DHS household questionnaire beginning in phase 5.

Comparability — Bangladesh [top]

The 1994 Bangladesh survey asks, "Does your household have agricultural land?," which might incorporate access to land (by rental or use of common land) as well as ownership of land. The 1997 Bangladesh survey asks whether any member of the household owns agricultural land. The 2018 Bangladesh survey asked whether any member of the household "own[s] any homestead."

Comparability — Egypt [top]

The 1988 Egyptian survey asks about ownership of "farm land." The 2003 Egyptian survey asked about ownership of "farm or other land." The 2005, 2008, and 2014 Egyptian surveys asks about ownership of "land that can be used for agriculture."

Comparability — Ethiopia [top]

The 2000 Ethiopian survey asks "Does your household have crop land?," which might incorporate access to land (by rental or use of common land) as well as ownership of land. The 2005 and 2011 Ethiopian surveys refer to ownership of agricultural land.

Comparability — Liberia [top]

The 2013 Liberian survey asked whether any member of the household farms any agricultural land.

Comparability — Tanzania [top]

The 2010 Tanzanian survey derives the values for this variable from a question about "How many acres of land for farming or grazing does this household own?" Respondents reporting zero for that question were coded as not owning land for agriculture.

Comparability — Zimbabwe [top]

The 2005 Zimbabwe survey uses question wording that emphasizes access rather than ownership: "Does any member of this household have access to use land for agricultural purposes?" The 2010 Zimbabwe survey uses the standard wording about owning agricultural land.
