Wl-7008-Effects of Farm Credit on Productivity and Resilience in Indian Agriculture
Finance is one of the main limitations to improving the productivity and resilience of smallholder agriculture. Using household-level data from the recent nationally representative farm survey in India, this paper has assessed the impact of farm credit on productivity and risk in agriculture. Findings show a measurable impact of credit on farm outcomes — a 24% higher productivity and a 16% reduction in downside risk. The effects of credit, howeve…

A comparison of the Indian diet with the EAT-Lancet reference diet
Indian diets, across states and income groups, are unhealthy. Indians also consume excess amounts of cereals and not enough proteins, fruits, and vegetables.
