• Does Adoption Of Multiple Climate-Smart Practices Improve Farmers’ Climate Resilience? Empirical Evidence From The Nile Basin Of Ethiopia (2017, methodology): “The specification of our empirical model is based on a review of theoretical work and previous similar empirical adoption and impact studies on integrated natural resource management and sustainable land management (D’Souza et al. 1993; Neill and Lee 2001; Arellanes and Lee 2003; Gebremedhin and Sco”
• Adoption of multiple sustainable agricultural practices in rural Ethiopia (2013, methodology): “The adoption models include several explanatory variables based on economic theory and previous empirical adoption studies (D’Souza et al., 1993; Neill and Lee, 2001; Arellanes and Lee, 2003; Lee, 2005; Marenya and Barrett 2007; Knowler and Bradshaw, 2007; Kassie et al., 2010; Wollni et al., 2010).”
• Social capital, risk preference and adoption of improved farm land management practices in Ethiopia (2015, background): “The effect of risk aversion on the adoption of landmanagement strategies iswell documented (Kassie et al., 2010; Teklewold and Kohlin, 2011).”
• Cropping system diversification, conservation tillage and modern seed adoption in Ethiopia: Impacts on household income, agrochemical use and demand for labor (2013, unknown): “Most previous adoption studies (e.g., Gebremedhin and Scott, 2003; Kassie et al., 2010, 2011) have focused on an analysis of a single SAP using single equation models (e.g., probit or logit).”
• Yield Effects of Tissue Culture Bananas in Kenya: Accounting for Selection Bias and the Role of Complementary Inputs (2012, methodology): “A more efficient and consistent way to estimate the ESR model is the full information maximum likelihood (FIML) method (Greene, 2003; Lokshin and Sajaia, 2004).”
• Adoption of multiple climate-smart agricultural practices in the Gangetic plains of Bihar, India (2018, methodology): “Consistent with earlier studies (Feder and Umali, 1993; Kassie et al., 2013, 2010), our results show that farmers are less likely to adopt MT and IS on the plots when the soil quality appears to be good (i.e. plots with deep soil depth).”
• Tradeoffs and Complementarities in the Adoption of Improved Seeds, Fertilizer, and Natural Resource Management Technologies in Kenya (2016, background): “For instance, high rainfall can stimulate weed growth and 6  increase water logging (Kassie et al., 2010), which may negatively influence the adoption of zero tillage.”
• Land Use/Land Cover Change Analysis Using Object-Based Classification Approach in Munessa-Shashemene Landscape of the Ethiopian Highlands (2013, background): “to reconsider the massive program of natural resource conservation to reduce environmental degradation and poverty as well as increase agricultural productivity and food security over the last three decades undertaken by the government of Ethiopia and a consortium of donors [77], and revert the ongo”
