• Crop modelling for integrated assessment of risk to food production from climate change (2015, background): “…where strong gender differences exist in crop choices or division of manual labour (Giller et al., 2009), climate risk assessments should at least acknowledge if the knowledge and skills required to carry out the adaptations evaluated are, in reality, gender specific (Doss and Morris, 2000).”
• Adoption and Impacts of Sustainable Agricultural Practices on Maize Yields and Incomes: Evidence from Rural Zambia (2016, background): “This is consistent with the findings of some previous studies (e.g. Doss and Morris, 2000).”
• Intrahousehold Bargaining and Resource Allocation in Developing Countries (2013, positive): “For example, in an analysis of improved maize technology adoption in Ghana, Doss and Morris (2000) find that while women farmers are less likely to adopt improve improved varieties of maize and fertilizer, the gender differences in adoption are explained by gender-linked differences in access to…”
• Factors influencing farmers’ choices of adaptation to climate change in Ekiti State, Nigeria (2014, background): “The perspectives of the indigenous people, the way they think and behave in relation to climate changes as well as their values and aspirations, have a significant role to play in addressing climate change (Doss and Morris, 2001).”
• Factors Affecting Adoption of Improved Rice Varieties among Rural Farm Households in Central Nepal (2015, background): “This observation has, therefore, spawned numerous studies about agricultural technology adoption and their impact on smallholders’ welfare in developing countries in the recent years (Besley and Case, 1993; Doss and Morris, 2000; Mendola, 2007; Becerril and Abdulai, 2010).”
