"Poverty in relation to Household Budget Survey refers to an assessment of the basic costs of a minimum standard of living in a particular society and measures the number of households and/or the proportion of the population that are deemed not to be able to meet these basic needs. In Tanzania, poverty is measured by comparing a household’s consumption per adult equivalent to the national poverty line using Household Budget Survey (HBS) data. "
