Do credit constraints affect agricultural technology adoption? Evidence from Nigeria por Balana, Bedru, Oyeyemi, Motunrayo, Benson, Todd

“…Literature suggests that credit constraints impede individuals from investing in productivity enhancing agricultural technologies and, thus, poor farmers are unable to engage in high-return agricultural activities. Much policy discourse and research literature associates agricultural credit constraints with supply-side factors, such as farmers not having access to credit sources or high costs of borrowing, and, thus, recommend that such supply-side constraints be addressed to improve smallholders’ access to credit. …”
