English term or phrase: minus
The procedure starts by estimating the average non-food consumption of the population whose food expenditures lie within plus and minus 1% of the food poverty line. The same exercise is then repeated for the population lying plus and minus 2%, 3%, and up to 10%. Second, these ten mean non-food allowances are averaged and that will be the final non-food poverty line.
