• The impact of agricultural cooperatives membership on the wellbeing of smallholder farmers: empirical evidence from eastern Ethiopia (2017, background): “…on outdated technologies coupled with lack of access to credit, market information, improved technologies, functioning markets (for inputs, outputs, finance, consumer goods, and services, etc.), and other infrastructure (Gebremedhin et al. 2009; Alene and Hassan 2006; Pender and Gebremedhin 2007).”
• Effect of Agricultural Extension Program on Smallholders' Farm Productivity: Evidence from Three Peasant Associations in the Highlands of Ethiopia (2013, unknown): “…erosion, highly rain fed dependent agriculture system are major obstacles to sustain the agricultural production in the country (Grepperud, 1996; Pender & Gebremedhin, 2007; Kassie, Zikhali, Manjur, & Edward, 2009). www.ccsenet.org/jas Journal of Agricultural Science Vol. 5, No. 8; 2013 In…”
• Adoption of multiple sustainable agricultural practices in rural Ethiopia (2013, background): “Kassie et al., (2010) and Pender and Gebremedhin (2007) found that commercial fertilizers provide a higher crop return per hectare in wetter areas than in drier areas and suggest the need for careful agro-ecological targeting in the development, promotion and scaling up of sustainable practices.”
• Measurement Error Mechanisms Matter: Agricultural Intensification with Farmer Misperceptions and Misreporting (2019, unknown): “Regardless of land area measurement methods, the estimates in Table 5 consistently show a strong inverse relationship between plot size and input use intensity for all countries and for all inputs, consistent with the Boserupian hypothesis and with many previous studies (Pender and Gebremedhin, 2007”
• Evaluating the impact of improved maize varieties on food security in Rural Tanzania: Evidence from a continuous treatment approach (2014, unknown): “This involves the use of predicted values or residuals of the potentially endogenous variables as instrumental variables in the estimation of the truly endogenous variables (Kabubo-Mariara et al. 2006; Pender and Gebremedhin 2007; Wooldridge 2002).”
• The Economics of Sustainable Land Management Practices in the Ethiopian Highlands (2010, unknown): “Although there is substantial evidence on the adoption and productivity impacts of soil and water conservation measures in Ethiopia (Gebremedhin et al., 1999; Shiferaw and Holden, 2001; Benin, 2006; Pender and Gebremedhin, 2007; Kassie et al., 2008), the evidence of adoption and productivity impacts”
• Adoption and Impacts of Sustainable Agricultural Practices on Maize Yields and Incomes: Evidence from Rural Zambia (2016, background): “Finally, plot-level characteristics are significant determinants of adoption (e.g. Pender and Gebremedhin, 2007; Kassie et al., 2008; Teklewold et al., 2013a,b).”
