Description

Definition
CATTLEYN indicates whether household owned any cattle. In some cases, the question referred specifically to local or indigenous cattle; see Comparability. The complementary variable CATTLENUM reports the number of cattle owned by the household.

The information in CATTLEYN 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.
