Signaling, screening, or sunk costs? Experimental evidence on how prices affect agricultural technology adoption in East Africa por Van Campenhout, Bjorn, Abate, Gashaw T., Colen, Liesbeth, Kramer, Berber

“…We explore three mechanisms through which charging a positive price may increase uptake, intended use and subsequent adoption of a new technology: (1) a signaling effect, where a positive price conveys higher product quality; (2) a screening effect, whereby payment deters users who do not value the product and targets those more likely to use it; and (3) a sunk cost effect, where paying a positive price induces a psychological commitment to use. We test how these pricing mechanisms shape uptake, use, and subsequent adoption of recently released seed varieties of staple food crops, drawing on a field experiment with smallholder farmers in Uganda and Ethiopia. …”
