Development of targeted insecticide treatment for improved storage of maize cobs on traditional platforms in Ghana
Improvements to maize cob storage on farms in the Volta Region of Ghana were investigated with a view to limiting the damage and losses associated with the Larger Grain Borer (Prostephanus truncatus) and weevils (Sitophilus spp). The study was initiated by a survey of those technologies adopted …

Three essays in experimental and behavioral economics of technology adoption in India
… end. We use two rounds of an auction of improved grain storage technology where access to the technology is driven by random prices drawn at the household level. This approach lets us disentangle the price paid from the initial willingness to pay of the recipient, thus allowing us to …
