Question 9: Identification of agricultural activities

9. Did any member of this household

[] 1 has a plot or a farm
[] 2 cultivate during the last year (in owned, rented, or borrowed territory)
[] 3 has cattle, pigs, chicken, ducks, wild turkey, geese, or others (for sale or self-consumption)
[] 4 none of the above

This question allows us to identify the households that carry out agricultural activities. You must ask if anyone in the household:

Had a plot or agricultural farm: this refers to the possession of some terrain completely or partially dedicated to the agricultural production, whose labors can be directed or carried out by one person or with the help of others.

The farm can be shared or in society with another household, company, or institution. It can be composed of one or more lots or plots (owned or not) not necessarily together. The agricultural production includes:

The annual, transitory, or permanent cultivations, grown in open air or in greenhouses.
The raising of animals like beef cattle, pigs, or poultry.
The production of foods of animal origin like milk, meat, eggs, etc.
The forest and fish production carried out as an additional activity in an agricultural farm

[p. 137]

Cultivated during the last year (in owned, rented, or borrowed territory): this is considered the person that cultivates or carries out agricultural activities when it has been done in owned, rented, or borrowed terrains including the patio or terrace of a dwelling.

It does not include: the case of the people that cultivated or carried out agricultural activities as a "salaried job."

Had cattle, pigs, chicken, ducks, wild turkeys, geese, and others (for the rent or self-consumption): this considers those people that carry out livestock activities like raising animals, whether for sale or self-consumption.

None of the above: when in the household no one has an agricultural farm, nor cultivates or raises cattle, pigs, or poultry.
