Comparing objective and subjective measures of household resilience
Resilience measurement has become central to targeting and evaluating development interventions, yet different measurement approaches may identify different households as vulnerable. This study compares objective and subjective measures of household resilience using data from 2000 households in rural Ethiopia. We analyze two objective measures (FAO’s RIMA and the TANGO method) alongside subjective indicators based on households’ self-assessed cap…
Assessing trade‐off risk between crop production and vertebrate biodiversity in three African countries
Governments worldwide are committed to eliminating hunger and conserving biodiversity, reflected in United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 2 (Zero Hunger) and 15 (Life on Land). Expanding agricultural lands to meet growing food demands often threatens biodiversity, creating potential trade‐offs between these objectives. To understand the potential trade‐off risks, we need to determine the extent to which croplands are located in areas that …
Farmers’ drought experience, risk perceptions, and behavioural intentions for adaptation
This paper examines farmers' cognitive perceptions of risk and the behavioural intentions to implement specific drought risk reduction measures using the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) model. We follow an innovative route by extending a PMT model with a drought experience variable, which, we hypothesize, will influence risk perceptions and the take-up of adaptation measures. In order to do so, we investigated detailed historical drought patte…
Does a portfolio of consumption adjustment coping strategies erode resilience? Panel data evidence from Ethiopia
Open access post-harvest grazing and farmers’ preferences for forage production incentives in Ethiopia
Do Safety Net Transfers Improve Diets and Reduce Undernutrition? Evidence from Rural Ethiopia
In this paper we examine the impact of the Ethiopia’s Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP) on household dietary diversity and child nutrition using both waves of the Ethiopian Socioeconomic Survey. For identification, we use various methodologies. Results indicate consistently that PSNP has not had the desired effect on household dietary diversity or child nutrition regardless of model specification or methodology, suggesting that perhaps the tra…
Climate smart agricultural practices and gender differentiated nutrition outcome
Since the beginning of the decade, climate resilient green economy strategies have been proposed in many African countries. One of the pillars of the strategies is the adoption and diffusion of various climate smart agricultural practices for improving crop and livestock production and farmer income while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The effects of these innovations on household nutritional security, including gender-differentiated nutritio…
Coping with Food Insecurity on a Micro-Scale
This article examines the main household demographics and economic factors associated with food insecurity and coping behavior of rural households employed during times of food shortages in northern Ethiopia. Using a cost-of-basic-needs approach we estimated the food poverty line. This cut-off value was used to classify households as either food secure or insecure. Then empirical analyses were used, based on respectively a logit regression model …
Climate change vulnerability in Ethiopia
Climate change and variability severely affect rural livelihoods and agricultural productivity, yet they are causes of stress vulnerable rural households have to cope with. This paper investigated farming communities' vulnerability to climate change and climate variability across 34 agricultural-based districts in Tigray, northern Ethiopia. It considered 24 biophysical and socio-economic indicators to reflect the three components of climate chang…
Effect of Policy Interventions on Food Security in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia
Following the design of a conservation-based agricultural development strategy and food security strategy, the Tigray government has implemented different pro-poor development programs over the past years to address the problems of food security. This study attempts to investigate the effectiveness of government policy interventions at different scales addressed to improve food security. Food security both at the regional and district level was i…
