For Reducing Poverty Faster: Target Reasons Before People (2007, background): “Especially when food aid results in better nutrition outcomes for families, it can act as an effective safety net against descent (Barrett & Maxwell, 2005; Quisumbing, 2003).”
Rural livelihoods and poverty reduction policies. (2005, unknown): “Food aid can likewise contribute to better consumption outcomes and anthropometric status and to the protection of crucial productive asset stocks (Quisumbing 2003; Barrett and Maxwell 2004), although it largely fails to help move recipients out of chronic poverty.”
The impact of droughts and floods on food security and policy options to alleviate negative effects (2007, background): “Dercon and Krishnan (2004) and Quisumbing (2003) find that Q3 food aid has been effective in reducing household vulnerability in Ethiopia, and Hoddinott et al. (2003) note the importance of food aid in smoothing consumption and protecting assets among households facing food stress.”
Climate change adaptation: a study of multiple climate-smart practices in the Nile Basin of Ethiopia (2019, methodology): “We followed Quisumbing (2003) to construct the rainfall disturbance variable based on respondents’ subjective rainfall satisfaction in terms of timeliness, amount and distribution in the preceding seasons, based on questions such as whether rainfall came late at the start of the growing season,…”
For Protection and Promotion: The Design and Implementation of Effective Safety Nets (2008, background): “In Ethiopia, even though food transfers reach some female-headed households and some of the elderly, they do not reach the poorest people who live outside traditionally food-deficit areas (Clay, Molla, and Habtewold 1999; Quisumbing 2003).”
Food aid, domestic policy and food security: Contrasting experiences from South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa (2007, background): “…household vulnerability in Ethiopia (Dercon and Krishnan, 2004 and Quisumbing, 2003), that it has had a positive impact on child nutritional status (Quisumbing, 2003 and Yamano et al., 2005), and that it has been allocated mostly to the poorest households.15 There has been an increasing concern in…”
Determinants of Household Food Security in Rural Ethiopia: An Empirical Analysis (2014, unknown): “Following Quisumbing (2003) and Demeke et al. (2011), the responses for these questions were dichotomized in such a way that favorable responses are re-coded into one and unfavorable responses into zero (see Annex II).”
Does food aid Really have disincentive effects? New evidence from sub-Saharan Africa (2005, background): “Food Aid Targeting in Ethiopia, A Study of Who Needs It and Who Gets It.”
Using panel data to estimate the effect of rainfall shocks on smallholders food security and vulnerability in rural Ethiopia (2011, background): “Feleke and Gladwin (2003), Ramakrishna and Demeke (2002), Muluken et al.”
Adoption and Impacts of Sustainable Agricultural Practices on Maize Yields and Incomes: Evidence from Rural Zambia (2016, methodology): “To measure the adequacy and distribution of rainfall, a rainfall index was constructed following Quisumbing (2003) based on questions such as whether rainfall came and stopped on time, whether there was enough rain at the beginning and during the growing season, and whether it rained at harvest…”
Does Adoption Of Multiple Climate-Smart Practices Improve Farmers’ Climate Resilience? Empirical Evidence From The Nile Basin Of Ethiopia (2017, methodology): “We followed Quisumbing (2003) to construct the rainfall disturbance variable based on respondents’ subjective rainfall satisfaction in terms of timeliness, amount, and distribution.”
