• Review: Taking stock of Africa’s second-generation agricultural input subsidy programs (2018, background): “…differences, the findings suggest that women are less likely to receive (or receive a smaller quantity of) inputs for MFISP (Chibwana et al., 2012; Dionne and Horowitz, 2016; Ricker-Gilbert et al., 2011), for Tanzania’s ISP (Pan and Christiaensen, 2012), and for Nigeria’s GES (Wossen et al., 2017).”

• How does population density influence agricultural intensification and productivity? Evidence from Malawi (2014, background): “Several recent studies have addressed this issue (see Ricker-Gilbert et al., 2011; Mason and Ricker-Gilbert, 2013).”
