Factors influencing the intention to purchase health insurance
Introduction: This study empirically investigates the attitude of tobacco and alcohol consumers towards health insurance purchase in India. The study aims to determine the factors which plays a significant role in determining the purchase intention of health insurance among tobacco and alcohol consumers. Methods: We propose an extended theory of planned behavior (TPB) model comprising factors like attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavior co…
Environmental shocks and agriculture
Floods often displace people and exacerbate their access to finance, affecting the livelihood of daily wage workers in least-developed countries. In August 2017, Nepal experienced the heaviest rainfall in more than 60 years, severely flooding about 80 per cent of the land in the southern part of the country. Using the two-way fixed effects approach and an event study design, we evaluate the impact of severe flooding on the wages of agricultural w…
Impact of spouses' access to financial services on technological and managerial gaps in rice production
The study investigates the effect of the spouse's access to financial services via self‐help groups (SHGs) on technical efficiency, technology and managerial gaps. We use farm‐level data from rice farming households in eastern India, propensity score matching method and selectivity‐corrected stochastic production frontier model. Results show that farms with access to financial services via a spouse's membership in SHGs have slightly higher techni…
Socio-demographic factors shape mortality risk linked to compound drought-heatwave events under climate change in China
The relation between contract type and market power
Theoretical considerations suggest that production contracts systematically lead to higher market concentration and increase contracting firms’ ability to mark down farm gate prices compared to marketing contracts. Existing research on contract farming rarely differentiates market power in different types of contracts. This study investigates the impact of marketing and production contracts on farm gate prices and net profits. The analysis is bas…
Agricultural mechanization and the performance of the local Chinese economy
In this study, we analyze the impact of agricultural mechanization on the local Chinese economy from 2010 to 2020. Findings based on panel data and instrumental variable methods show that agricultural mechanization led to a significant decline in the local gross domestic product. In particular, agricultural mechanization changes the sector’s production and lowers its output value. Agricultural mechanization has reduced the need for labor to such …
Effect of input subsidies and extension services
A flexible and efficient hybrid agricultural subsidy design for promoting food security and safety
The quantity and quality of edible agricultural products are critical for food security (quantity) and safety (quality). Supplying consumers with enough safe food is the key responsibility of food production firms. Still, this aim is not always guaranteed because of input capacity constraints and other limitations in the agricultural sector. A hybrid subsidy, a mix of quantity and quality subsidy, could help achieve food security and safety in a …
Income, urbanisation and consumption of processed foods
India has witnessed a rapid rise in personal income, increased spending on infrastructure and construction and urbanisation in the past three decades. Households have changed their eating habits by purchasing more processed food. This study examines the factors affecting India's consumption of and expenditures on processed foods. The study uses information from three rounds of data collected by the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) and p…
Food aid and violent conflict
Food aid presents a core component of humanitarian support for people incapable of meeting basic human needs and aims to bolster food security. However, some studies suggest that food aid may cause violent conflicts in recipient countries, which has initiated a controversy regarding the impact of food aid on conflict in the political and scientific debate. We decompose the relationship between food aid and conflict into the channels through which…
Mechanism of Chinese farmers’ land rental participation
The impact of China’s new agricultural subsidy policy on grain crop acreage
Aspirations, risk preferences, and investments in agricultural technologies
Joint decision-making, technology adoption and food security
This study investigates the effect of married couples' joint decision-making on rice variety selection on rice productivity-a measure of food security. The study uses the 2016 Rice Monitoring Survey and the endogenous switching regression (ESR) method. Results show that rice farms with joint decision-makers (husband and wife) would have higher yields, particularly in households that adopted MRVGen1 (before 1986) rice varieties. Thus, families wit…

Disentangling gender‐differentiated impacts on food security and poverty
This study examines the association between a household head's gender and food insecurity and poverty in Vietnam using data from the Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey and exogenous switching treatment effect regression. The findings suggest that food insecurity and poverty differ by the gender of the household head and by the presence (de facto) or absence (de jure) of a spouse among female‐headed households (FHHs). On average, FHHs are le…

Agritourism
This paper performs a systematic review of the research literature in the field of agritourism. In the study, using a structured literature review methodology, established as well as emerging research clusters have been identified for epistemological analysis. Such analysis helps in the identification of key research topics, interrelations, and collaboration patterns in the field of agritourism and other research areas involving similar concepts.…

In recent years there has been a lot of discussion on global warming and climate change and its implications for social development – an area that Mohan has devoted his life to. It is now accepted that climate change is real and its impacts will be felt across different sectors ranging from water resources to industries to social arenas. In coming years, people will be affected across the world even more irrespective of their contribution to the …

This study is an attempt to use group information collected on climate change from farmers in eastern Uttar Pradesh, India to address a key question related to climate change policy: How to encourage farmers to adapt to climate change? First, we investigate farmers’ perception of and adaptation to climate change using content analysis and group information. The findings are then compared with climatic and agriculture information collected through…
Changes in temporal variability of precipitation over land due to anthropogenic forcings
This study investigated the anthropogenic influence on the temporal variability of annual precipitation for the period 1950–2005 as simulated by the CMIP5 models. The temporal variability of both annual precipitation amount (PRCPTOT) and intensity (SDII) was first measured using a metric of statistical dispersion called the Gini coefficient. Comparing simulations driven by both anthropogenic and natural forcing (ALL) with simulations of natural f…
