Interviewer instructions
Dairy Products and Eggs
Item 1. Milk - Covers the average/normal weekly consumption of milk, whether pure or processed milk, by the family. If purchases involve big cans especially powdered milk, inquire how long one can normally last and try to estimate the value consumed for one week. For example, one big can of powdered milk will last for one month. If a can of milk costs P180.00, divide this amount by 30 to convert to consumption per day then multiply by 7 to get one-week consumption.
a. Condensed - Sweetened milk
b. Evaporated - includes homogenized, filled (e.g. coconut filled) or recombined type.
c. Powdered - includes whole milk and powdered milk for babies like Sustagen, (vanilla or chocolate flavored) and Twin (half soya and half milk) are included here.
Milk used in preparing "polboron" for sale should not be included in this Item but in the corresponding activity in Part IV. However, if it is for home consumption, it should be reported here.
d. Fresh - This includes average/normal weekly consumption of the family on fresh milk whether bought in the market in tetra packs, or from dairy farm in bottles or polyethylene bags or processed at home.
Item 2. Ice Cream - Enter here the value of the family's average weekly consumption of ice cream, whether bought from the market, or the "sorbetero".
Do not include home made ice cream here. Report the ingredients used in their corresponding expenditure group, e.g., milk in Item 1 and sugar in A1.9, Item 1, etc.
Likewise, ice cream bought for special occasion where guests were invited should not be reported here but in Section H1 (Special Family Occasions).
Note that eating ice cream may not be regularly done. Hence, in estimating the consumption per week, attempt to inquire the total consumption per month or per semester as the case may be. Then translate the consumption to per day and multiply by 7 to get average weekly consumption.
Item 3. Other Dairy Products - These items account for the average weekly consumption of all other milk extracts and dairy products like cheese (all kinds), butter, (Anchor, Magnolia), cream, yoghurt, etc..
Note that Dari-Creme, Milkrema and Golden Crown will be included in A1.9 Margarine.
Item 4. Eggs
a. Fresh - Includes eggs of chicken, ducks/geese, quail and other bird's eggs. Also included are turtle's eggs, etc., which are consumed by the family.
