Thank you for that clarification. I am mainly concerned with the distinction between the two variables for cows/cattle:cattle (hv246a) and cows (hv246b) for the 2010 Burkina Faso DHS. I now understand that hv246a (cattle) + hv246b (cows)= total number of bovine animals (male and female) a household owns but I was wondering if you could tell me the difference between these two variables? Does the variable for cattle just include beef cattle and bulls (i.e. males)? Does the variable for cows only include milk cows (i.e. females)?
