Description

EXOTICCTNUM reports the number of "exotic" or "cross-(bred)" or "grade" cattle owned by the household. The "exotic" descriptor distinguishes imported breeds of cattle from "traditional," "local," or "indigenous" breeds of cattle, reported for some surveys in CATTLENUM. Ownership of dairy cattle is also documented in COWBULLNUM.

The complementary variable EXOTICCTYN indicates whether the household owns any such "exotic" cows or bulls.

The information in EXOTICCTNUM 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 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 slight differences in question wording, EXOTICCTNUM is largely comparable across samples.

Comparability - Standard DHS

EXOTICCTNUM is a country-specific household variable, and it is not included in any phase of the standard DHS questionnaire.
