Questions and instructions

Literal question
During the PERIOD SPECIFIED, did you or any member of your family produce goods mainly for home consumption? If yes, how much was consumed by the family?
Interviewer instructions
Inquire about the net receipts, which are the value of produce/receipts minus operating expenses, if any. In most cases, the value consumed will equal the net receipts, except when a part of the produce was sold/given away.

There are cases, however, when the net receipts may be less than the amount consumed. For example, a piglet was bought for P450 and raised to a size worth P2,400. When the family butchered the pig for own consumption, only P1,950 should be entered under net receipts (no cost in raising the pig) and P2,400 should be entered under value consumed. The cost of the pig was subtracted from its market value to derive net receipts.

The value to be reported under net receipts will include items sold and value given as gift, if any, and value consumed. Hence, in no case will the Net Receipts column be left blank whenever there is a report in the column for Value Consumed.

Description

Definition
A family sustenance activity is also a family activity but unlike an entrepreneurial activity, the produce from the former is mainly for home consumption. Occasionally, sales are made when harvest/produce are more than enough for family consumption. Some examples of these activities are raising one or two fowls, raising a few eggplants, tomatoes and other vegetables, fruit trees scattered in residential lot, fishing or gathering shells for a day's meal. Another example is selling palms in the churchyard during Palm Sunday.
