Working Paper No. 145 January, 2024 - Institutional Interventions and Farm Profits:

Further, the results of the study indicate the potential of institutional support for the millet based agricultural system in rainfed areas of the country. [...] Tackling the dual problem of food and nutrition security is the biggest challenge to the policy makers in the present and future world, especially in the context of developing countries. [...] The consistent estimates can be obtained by estimating the following set of models: 10 Here, is the error term with an expected value of zero, is the covariance between and , is the inverse Mills ratio computed from the estimated that the farmer chooses of crop. [...] 11 The actual expected value of farm outcome for adopters: The counterfactual expected value of farm outcome for adopters: The use of these conditional expectations allows us to calculate the average adoption effects on farm outcomes on adopters (ATT) and is defined as the difference between equations seven and eight as The first term on the right side shows the expected change of adopters’ outcom. [...] The actual expected value of farm outcome of non-adopters as The counterfactual expected value of farm outcome of non- adopters as Further, the treatment effect of untreated for the farmers that did not adopt (ATU) can be calculated as the difference between equation ten and eleven: The first term on the right-hand side represents the expected change in the outcome of non-adopters if the character.
