Drought-tolerant rice, weather index insurance, and comprehensive risk management for smallholders: Evidence from a multiyear field experiment in India por Ward, Patrick S., Makhija, Simrin, Spielman, David J.

“…Second, it estimates the price sensitivity of demand and other predictors of uptake for the DT cultivar and the DT-WII product by drawing on survey data from a two-year field experiment in which sales of the DT cultivar and DT-WII product were randomly assigned to villages across three drought-prone districts in Odisha. Finally, it explores the novel finding that uptake of the WII product persisted into year two at prices higher than the actuarially fair cost.…”
