Description
ATEVEG24H indicates whether the woman respondent ate vegetables during the previous day, either at night or during the daytime.
Some samples in this series include categories that can be consolidated into a single response. IPUMS-DHS uses supplemental programming to combine these responses in a standard variable, such as ATEOFRTVEG24H, while preserving the separate responses in separate variables.

The Nepal 2016 questionnaire refers to "Other vegetables: Cauliflower, cabbage, eggplant, green papaya, radish, onion, etc."
ATEVEG24H is combined with ATEFRUIT24H (fruit) in ATEOFRTVEG24H (V472L) (other fruits and vegetables) for the 2016 Nepal sample. IPUMS DHS users interested in ATEVEG24H are encouraged to review ATEOFRTVEG24H for a more comprehensive response category.
