Begin by asking if the respondent or any other household member has sold any land since January 2000. Land sales are significant events that the respondent should be able to recall. If he cannot, probe for specific events or needs that might prompt a land sale - such as the need to pay for school or health expenses, or weddings and funerals. Also, ask if there are other household members that might be able to answer.
If the answer to Question 7 is YES, write 1 and go to Question 8. Otherwise, write 2 and go to Section I-b.

Question post text

If answer is 2 > Go to section I-b (Land Gifts to Others)(ldgift - variable name in dataset).
