Interviewer instructions
Livestock and Poultry Disposed of and Livestock/Poultry Products Produced
This subsection obtains data on the value of livestock and poultry disposed of and the value of livestock/poultry products produced whether or not they were disposed of during the reference period.
Item 1 - Livestock and Poultry
If the family raised some livestock and poultry but no disposal was made during the reference period, there should be no entry in any of the sub-items.
Note again that the entries here are categorized into “live” production and finished or processed products to facilitate the linkage in the expenditure portion. Some animals and chicken were preprinted because these are commonly found in farms. However, for other animals and fowls write the specific kind under Item 1(e).
Follow the same procedure as discussed in Section A1 on how the different columns are filled out. Enter the number of animals/fowls disposed of in the appropriate column. Likewise, for the total value, value consumed and value given away as gifts, enter the column totals.
Item 2.Livestock/Poultry Products - Bear in mind that there should be entries in this item even though there was no disposal made for as long as there was production of livestock/ poultry products during the reference period. Note that those produced prior to the reference period but disposed of during the reference period are not included. Hence, make an estimate of the total value of products produced regardless of whether these were sold, consumed or given away as gifts. Unlike in Item 1 above where only those actually disposed of were included, in this item, all production are included. For instance, if the family produced “balut”, report the total value of “balut” produced in Col. 4 even if some are not yet disposed of. The same instruction holds true with eggs, bacon, sausages and ham produced.
A2.c Expenses
It is important to account for the expenses incurred in connection with the raising of livestock and poultry disposed of and the cost of producing the poultry products. In small-scale livestock and poultry raising, the amount spent for fuel, electricity and water may be lumped with the personal consumption of the family. Try to estimate the proportionate cost incurred for the enterprise.
Again the net income from this enterprise must be derived by filling up the darkened portion of the frame. If the net income is negative, inquire as to the reason. Maybe some of the animals and fowls that were raised, died and their acquisition cost was included in the valuation of the total value of animals/fowls disposed of. Be sure to write an explanation right below the darkened frame of the reference period.
