We use DNA‐fingerprinting to estimate the poverty reduction effect of adoption of improved cassava varieties in Nigeria. We estimate the counterfactual household income distribution of cassava producers by combining farm‐level treatment effects with a market‐level model. Our results suggest that ...

This paper examines the impacts of access to extension services and cooperative membership on technology adoption, asset ownership and poverty using household-level data from rural Nigeria. Using different matching techniques and endogenous switching regression approach, we find that both extensi...

Impact studies assuming exogenous technology adoption are bound to overstate or understate the true impact of improved agricultural technologies, especially in situations where agricultural technologies are targeted to, or adopted by, a certain group of farmers. This paper examined the impact of ...
