Recent studies have estimated the potential yield impacts of pesticide reductions in the European Union. While these estimates guide policy design, they are often...
In this paper, we establish the link between crop productivity, crop market participation and agricultural technology use among smallholder farmers. We take advantage of the latest...
This report reviewed seven national CAP Strategic Plans (for France, Germany, Denmark, Austria, Poland, Spain and the Netherlands) to see whether and to what extent the planned...
Agricultural extension can have important impacts on vulnerable populations by increasing food production, which improves both rural incomes and urban food security. Yet...
