Love Thy Neighbour?: Evidence from Ethnic Discrimination in Information Sharing within Villages

Author

  • Mattia Romani

Abstract

There is increasing evidence to suggest that a fundamental source of information for farmers on how to access and use new agricultural technologies comes from interacting with neighbours. Economic research on adoption of innovations in a rural context has only partially addressed the issue of how the social structure of a village can affect adoption and the final impact on productivity of farmers.
