Definition
OTHERPOUNUM reports the number of "other" poultry owned by the household. The meaning of "other" depends on the specific animals asked about in a given sample.
The information in OTHERPOUNUM 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.
