2/2. Farmer preferences are heterogeneous. Adoption decisions reflect tradeoffs between economic outcomes, environmental considerations, perceived farmer capabilities, and social influences.

Grateful to my supervisors and co-authors.

1/2. One of my PhD papers has been published.

The study explores farmers' adoption decisions related to sustainable agricultural practices. Going beyond economic considerations, the study incorporates behavioral and social-psychological drivers.

1/2. I had the pleasure of presenting findings from my first PhD paper at the European Association of Agricultural Economists (EAAE) Conference in Bonn.

The study was conducted among Swiss wheat farmers and highlights how farmers weigh different trade-offs when adopting IPM.

We highlight how young men and women in livestock production systems adapt to climate change and how household relationships mediate thier livestock production engagements.

Does adoption of improved groundnut varieties (IGVs) improve household food security?
We show that adoption of IGVs significantly increases household per capita groundnut consumption by 13% and reduces households' vulnerability to food insecurity by 22%.
