Notes: Numbers in parentheses are standard deviations of the corresponding mean (without clustering). ** and *** indicate significance at the 5 and 1 percent levels, respectively. FII, Fadama II.


a“Before FII” indicates the year before Fadama II started (October 2004–September 2005). “After FII”


indicates the year after the project started (October 2005–September 2006). bDouble difference (DD) is calculated as (Yp1 – Yp0) – (Ynp1 – Ynp0). The variables are defined in the text. cChange due to participation in project is calculated as (DD/Yp0) × 100; Yp0 is defined in the text.
