Interviewer instructions
<svar a="all" v="NI95A401"><span class="em">Question 1: Relationship</span><br />We want to know the person's relationship to the head of household and not the relationship between each of the members. Option 3, "Son/daughter", also includes adopted children and step-children. If the informant declares that any of the persons is a brother/sister, grandparent, cousin, nephew, or uncle of the head of household, then you will mark option 7, "Other relative". Remember that the head of household or the qualified informant should also answer Section VI about agricultural information. This Section VI should be completed on the first form in the case that you complete two or more and there is only one producer.<br /></svar>
