Description

Definition
PIGYN indicates whether the household owned any pigs. The complementary variable PIGNUM reports how many pigs the household owned.

The information in PIGYN is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
