The various face(t)s of urban agriculture
Urban agriculture (UA) is often proposed as a solution to feed cities sustainably and nutritiously. Yet, research on secondary towns is limited, despite their central role in Africa's urbanization, and studies on the entire supply chain are scarce. This study uses a qualitative approach to explore the technical, institutional and commercial aspects of UA in two Ethiopian secondary towns, Dessie and Kombolcha, focusing on leafy vegetables due to t…
Managing shade trees, balancing trade-offs
Cocoa agroforestry systems (CAFS) exhibit considerable variation in shade-tree management, defined by farmers' decisions to retain or remove shade trees. Yet, empirical evidence on the economic implications of shade-tree management remains limited, and few studies offer a multidimensional economic assessment. This study examines the effect of shade-tree density on the economic performance of CAFS in southern Bahia, Brazil. Using data from 313 coc…
Farmers’ Voices in European Protests
Analyzed 2232 farmers’ protest reasons across four European countries. • Used open-ended survey data to capture top-of-mind concerns from farmers. • Country-specific protest reasons: bureaucracy, financial, policy, and diverse motivations. • Some misalignment between farmers’ concerns and EU policy priorities. The 2024 farmers’ protests across Europe signaled widespread dissatisfaction in the agricultural sector. While low farm incomes and restri…
Is Cocoa Production a Main Driver of Children’s Work in Ghana
Child labour in cocoa production remains a major concern. Yet, an overall assessment of the role of cocoa production in child labour, comparing with other household livelihood activities, as well as a more nuanced view on the work that is done by children, is lacking. Using data from the Ghana Living Standards Survey 2017, we model the probability of children’s work based on cocoa production and a set of other variables at child, parental, househ…
How does gender shape the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices? Evidence from Belgium
Intrahousehold Decision Making and Fertility Choices in Rural Senegal and Uganda
Feminist economic approaches have transformed mainstream economic analysis to better account for intrahousehold decision making. To quantify decision making, studies resort to self-reported survey-based measures, derived from questions directed to household members, or proxy-variable methods. This study uses a choice experiment, a stated preference method, implemented in rural Senegal and Uganda and specifically distinguishes between individual a…

Local food systems
Food systems worldwide are under enormous pressure. Over the past decades, local food systems have been promoted by governments and civil society organisations as a lever for change towards more inclusive, resilient and sustainable food systems based on the belief of their many purported benefits. The goal of this article is to test eight common beliefs on local food systems – from a consumer, farmer, community and environmental perspective – aga…

What if mothers are entrepreneurs? Non-farm businesses and child schooling in rural Ghana
Dynamics of off-farm employment in Sub-Saharan Africa
Farmers’ perspectives on payments for ecosystem services in Uganda
Does Off-Farm Wage Employment Make Women in Rural Senegal Happy
This paper investigates the impact of wage employment on women’s well-being in the Senegalese horticultural export industry. It uses a subjective well-being approach, based on self-reported happiness, to capture income and non-income aspects of employment. The study uses original survey data from 2013 for the Saint-Louis region in Senegal and an instrumental variable approach, supported by information from focus group discussions. It finds that w…
