Contexto
What changed: Promotional farmers received agronomic training, certified wheat seeds on credit, free urea and gypsum, and an output purchase guarantee under Ethiopia's Wheat Initiative. Comparison: Randomly assigned control farmers within the same kebeles. Limits: Subsidized inputs leaked to some control farmers, row-planting uptake was incomplete (61%), and marketing assistance was rarely implemented.
