BABA HP 1.1: When your household decides what to plant, what usually comes first?

Background

In most rural Ugandan households, deciding what to plant means balancing two needs at once: growing enough food to feed the family and growing crops that can be sold for cash needs like school fees or medical costs. That balance, and who has the final say over it, often depends on who controls the land rather than who does the work. This question asks listeners to name what usually wins in their own household.

Question:

When your household decides what to plant, what usually comes first?

A. Crops to sell for money
B. Food to feed the family
C. We try to balance both
D. Whoever owns the land decides

Instructions:
