Questions and instructions

Literal question

In the past one month, how much income did [NAME] earn from the sale of these crops? Amount in KSh.

var_qstn_ivuinstr

Ask the respondent to estimate the amount of income earned by the individual in the past one month. Note that if the children in the household worked a few hours on certain crops but the crop was actually sold by the household head, then that money should be recorded in the row for the household head, NOT the children. However, if a certain individual worked on some crops and also sold those crops in the market, then the income from those crops should be recorded in the row for that individual. If the respondent does not know how much was earned by a certain individual in the household, see if somebody else can answer. Make sure to probe for income earned from brewing alcohol - if you don't ask about this specifically, the respondent might not report it.
