Definition
SHEEPYN indicates whether the household owned sheep. The complementary variable SHEEPNUM reports the number of sheep owned by the household.
The information in SHEEPYN 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.
