Description

Definition
This variable indicates which persons within the household (if any) filled out farm schedules for the agricultural census. The code "1" indicates that the person was the first person within the household listed on the census form who filled out a schedule. Usually, there was no more than one schedule per household, but a few households contained more than one farm operator, each of whom filled out a schedule. In these cases, the second farm operator was coded "2," the third, "3," and so on.
