Bundling Genetic and Financial Technologies for More Resilient and Productive Small-Scale Farmers in Africa

Using a multi-year randomised controlled trial in Tanzania and Mozambique, this paper explores whether a complementary bundle of genetic and financial technologies can boost the resilience and productivity of small-scale farmers. The analysis shows that treatment-group farmers who experienced shocks and saw the technologies in action subsequently increased their agricultural investment beyond pre-shock levels.
