Citations in the corpus
- Risk Preferences and Environmental Uncertainty: Implications for Crop Diversification Decisions in Ethiopia (2012, background): “However, in the absence of perfect insurance markets–as is often the case in developing countries–exposure to such risks is likely to affect the ex ante production choices (Fafchamps 1992; Chavas and Holt 1996; Kurosaki and Fafchamps 2002).”
- A field experiment on the impact of weather shocks and insurance on risky investment (2011, unknown): “This model has been adapted for rural households by Finkelshtain and Chalfant (1991), Fafchamps (1992), Barrett (1996), Kurosaki and Fafchamps (2002) and others.”
- Consumption risk, technology adoption and poverty traps (2007, background): “…avoidance in the face of subsistence constraints, ineffective self-insurance strategies and incomplete credit and insurance markets, and whether such behaviour is quantitatively important in explaining persistent poverty in 2 Sandmo (1971), Eswaran and Kotwal (1990), Kurosaki and Fafchamps (2002).”
- Risk Sharing Between Households (2011, background): “Starting with Hayashi, Altonji and Kotliko¤ (1996), a large empirical literature has used this approach to test risk sharing e¢ ciency across households (e.g. Mace 1991, Cochrane 1991, Townsend 1994, Ravallion and Chaudhuri 1997, Kurosaki and Fafchamps 2002).”
- On Crop Biodiversity, Risk Exposure, and Food Security in the Highlands of Ethiopia (2009, unknown): “Insurance and risk coping mechanisms often function poorly because of credit constraints, information asymmetries, and commitment failures (Deaton 1989; Fafchamps 1992; Kurosaki and Fafchamps 2002).”
