Agricultural Development Impact Evaluation

...

Agricultural Development Impact Evaluation (Giannini Foundation of Agricultural Economics).

This chapter, which appeared in the recent Handbook of Agricultural Economics, reviews studies of impacts of agricultural interventions as well as of other treatments on agricultural outcomes, showing that no single tool is sufficient to evaluate impacts; different methods are appropriate in different situations; all methods have weakness as well as strengths; and combinations of approaches often can offer a deeper and more reliable understanding of impacts than stand-alone methods.
