Description:
|
This project aims to understand the determinants and impacts of land restoration activities (terracing, contouring, reforestation, bunding, etc.) in Ethiopia. First, we will understand what leads some farmers to adopt land restoration and others to not adopt it. Second, we will estimate the impacts of land restoration on poverty, food security, and other wellbeing indicators. |
