This section has five parts on food and non-food consumption and expenditure (section I to Section M). Information in the food consumption sections should be asked of the individual in the household who is primarily responsible for food preparation for the household, with the assistance of other food preparers and the head of household, if applicable. Information on non-food expenditures should be asked of the head of household, who should be assisted by other informed adults within the household.
Various recall periods are used in these sections. The length of the recall period is associated with the typical frequency of purchase of the items. Food items, which are purchased most frequently, have the shortest recall period. Non-food purchases have longer recall periods, with the longest being for items that are purchased infrequently.
