M. Ncube, C. L. Lufumpa, and S. Kayizzi-mugerwa, Unlike the other surveys, main and secondary activities are defined with respect to two time periods : last 7 days and last 12 months. We used the last 7 days period as the reference (much less missing values) and extrapolated it to one year, 2011.

, Contrary to all other surveys also, only the two main members of the households had to report their income from main and secondary activities. Income from other members were recovered, as a sum, 1993.

, Both surveys are quite similar, 2002 significantly differs from 1998 only regarding the list of agricultural costs, which should not matter given our methodology to compute income, 1998.

, Contrary to all other surveys, questions about miscellaneous income (rents, dividends, interests, pensions ...) were reported at the individual level (before they were summed up for the entire household by the enumerator). The auto-consumption section was also augmented with one question about food given by other households. Last, the question about the main activity was divided into two questions, 2008.

, To some extent, this could be explained by the fact that some individuals may live only from transfers received from the government and/or from other households and therefore have 0 pretax/pre-transfer income
