The Green Revolution, which bolstered agricultural yields and economic well-being in Asia and Latin America beginning in the 1960s, largely bypassed sub-Saharan Africa. We study the first randomized controlled trial of a government-implemented input

Rural microfinance must contend with the triple challenges of isolation, small‐scale transactions, and risk. These challenges result in information asymmetries and transaction costs that render markets for financial services costly or missing. This

In discussing the paradoxical violation of expected utility theory that bears his name, Maurice Allais noted that people tend to “greatly value” certainty. Allais’ observation implies that people will undervalue insurance relative to the predic

This paper develops a dynamic theoretical model to assess the impact of asset insurance on poverty and the cost of social protection in developing countries. We analyze the model under two technological assumptions: a standard, globally concave produ
