Risk Preferences and Environmental Uncertainty: Implications for Crop Diversification Decisions in Ethiopia (2012, background): “…Count index which measures species richness on a given farm; (ii) the Margalef Index which measures richness but accounts for land area; (iii) the Shannon Index which measures richness and relative abundance; and (iv) the Berger Parker Index which measures relative abundance (Benin et al. 2004).”
Determinants of farm diversification in integrated crop–livestock farming systems in Ghana (2017, background): “Proximity to main roads and markets has also been found to increase the development of other farm enterprises (Benin et al., 2004).”
Factors affecting farmers' crops diversification: Evidence from SNNPR, Ethiopia (2013, methodology): “Previous studies indicated that land size positively affected crop and variety diversification (Benin et al., 2004; Ashfaq et al., 2008; Fetien et al., 2009).”
Seeds for livelihood: Crop biodiversity and food production in Ethiopia (2010, background): “…of crop species to be grown can be influenced by household endowments (i.e. land), distance to market, access to infrastructures, agro-ecological characteristics of the operated plots, as well as farmers' socioeconomic characteristics (Benin et al., 2004; Bezabih, 2008; van Dusen and Taylor, 2005).”
