Interviewer instructions

Asks about the total amount and value of home-produced or foods and
foodstuffs received as gifts and consumed on holidays. Attention should be paid to asking about
home-production and gifts. Do not omit these since there are many households that do not
engage in agricultural production. Many persons mistake question 5 for the total, but this
question only deals with the value of home-made or non-purchased goods. Especially when Tet
is approaching, many households receive foods as gifts for Tet.
