Description

OTHERANYN indicates whether the household owns any other type of animals or livestock. The meaning of "other" depends on the specific animals asked about in a given sample.

The information in OTHERANYN 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

Along with universe differences, the meaning of "other animals" depends on the types of animals specified in previous survey questions. To determine the types of animals covered by OTHERANYN, users should consult the related variables on agricultural animal ownership or the surrounding survey text to determine the meaning for a specific sample.
