Natural disasters and labor markets (2017, background): “Employment in the non-agricultural sector has been found to be an important strategy for agricultural households to diversify their portfolio ex-ante as well as ex-post (Rose, 2001; Kochar, 1999; Takasaki, Barham, and Coomes, 2010; Cameron and Worswick, 2003).”
Labor Effects of Adult Mortality in Tanzanian Households (2003, background): “There is some evidence that time allocation in rural households is responsive to idiosyncratic and aggregate (village-level) income shocks (Fafchamps 1993; Jacoby and Skoufias 1995; Kochar 1999; Rose 2001).”
Extended Family and Kinship Networks: Economic Insights and Evolutionary Directions (2008, background): “Households, for instance, might adjust their labor supply in order to smooth consumption (Kochar, 1999; Rose, 2001).”
Risk coping strategies in tropical forests: floods, illnesses, and resource extraction (2004, methodology): “…1998), credit and remittance (Lucas and Stark, 1985; Rosenzweig, 1988; Stark and Lucas, 1988; Udry, 1990; Foster and Rosenzweig, 2001), market labor supply (Kanwar, 1995; Kochar, 1999; Rose, 2001), and mutual insurance (Fafchamps, 1992; Townsend, 1994; Udry, 1994; Fafchamps and Lund, forthcoming).”
Selling Labor Low: Wage Responses to Productivity Shocks in Developing Countries (2006, background): “The variable RainShock is constructed accordingly, with excess rain treated as a good shock and a shortfall as a bad shock.12 Previous work on India uses similar specifications (Jacoby and Skoufias 1997; Kochar 1997; Rose 2001).”
Migratory Responses to Agricultural Risk in Northern Nigeria (2011, unknown): “Interestingly, the estimate of ex ante risk on migration corroborates previous work on off-farm labor participation (Rose 2001) that suggest that increased ex ante risk increases the likelihood of male migration.”
Nonfarm employment, agricultural shocks, and poverty dynamics: evidence from rural Uganda (2006, background): “Under risky environments, risk-averse poor households tend to diversify sources of income away from agriculture to decrease risk ex ante (Ito and Kurosaki, 2006; Kochar, 1999; Lanjouw and Lanjouw, 2001; Reardon, 2006; Rose, 2001).”
Innovations in Climate Risk Management: Protecting and Building Rural Livelihoods in a Variable and Changing Climate (2007, background): “However, the most promising and perhaps most neglected opportunities to impact poverty and food security involve seasonal to decadal time scales, falling between the extremes of daily weather and the 50-100 year time scales typical of climate change scenarios.”
Labor Markets and Poverty in Village Economies (2015, background): “For instance, Roy et al. (2015) show that men belonging to the households of the treated women benefited indirectly by being able to purchase productive assets from the women’s additional earnings.”
Climate risk management and rural poverty reduction (2018, background): “…and investment in productive assets (including soil fertility) and improved production technology (Barrett et al., 2004; Dercon, 1996; Fafchamps, 2003; Kebede, 1992; Marra et al., 2003; Rose, 2001; Rosenzweig and Stark, 1989; Dercon and Christiaensen, 2011; Simtowe, 2006; Morris et al., 2007).”
Natural Disasters, Household Welfare, and Resilience: Evidence from Rural Vietnam (2015, background): “This finding is as our expectation since households who suffer from adverse shocks tend to increase labor supply to mitigate the income and consumption loss (Kochar, 1999; Rose, 2001).”
