Despite significant economic growth, child development outcomes in India remain poor. Using a large-scale experiment in which randomly-selected mothers receive cash transfers for the first...
Purpose The first purpose of this study is to examine the impacts of climate-caused cereal productivity changes on food security, welfare and GDP in South Asian countries. The second purpose is to assess...
Highlights: Few studies estimate the potential cost-effectiveness of programs for improving health through diets. Expert knowledge linked to modelling offers a basis for assessing potential alternatives...
Numerous structural vulnerabilities put developing regions at a disadvantage as they confront the prospect of increasingly frequent extreme shocks. Typical of these regions, South Asia had...
In India, the production of rice and wheat account for more than 80% of its total agricultural water use. As farming is highly dependent on water availability, rapidly receding water...
The empirical literature on the impacts of weather shocks on agricultural prices typically explores post-harvest price dynamics rather than pre-harvest ones. Inspired by the intra-annual competitive storage theory...
Understanding concurrent drought events in global main croplands is crucially important for food security, effective adaptation to climate change and human well-being. Yet, there is a lack...
Food security is a critical concern for emerging nations, where agriculture is a vital source of livelihood for a significant proportion of the population. However, ineffective food grain storage management...
Highlights:
The climate model projects a significant increase in temperature over the IGP.
The direct impact of climate change leads to wheat yields losses between −1 and...
