Begin by asking if the respondent or any other household member has bought or acquired any land since January 2000. Gifts of land to the respondent or other household members should be included here. Also, inherited land should be included here. Again, if the respondent says NO or cannot recall, probe for specific events or needs that might prompt a land sale - such as a good harvest or monetary gifts from relatives. Also, ask if there are other household members that might be able to answer.
If the answer to Question 16 is YES, write 1 and go to Question 17. Otherwise, write 2 and go to Section II.
