Description

SHEEPGOATNUM reports how many sheep and/or goats are owned by the household. The complementary variable SHEEPGOATYN indicates whether the household owns any sheep or goats.

The information in SHEEPGOATNUM 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.
