The Effect of Education in Nepal's Traditional Agriculture.

Dhakal, Dharmendra; And Others

Economics of Education Review, v6 n1 p27-34 1987

Using data collected from 600 farm families, this paper examines the contribution of education to agricultural production and productivity in Nepal. Results show that F. Welch's approach, involving estimates of engineering production, gross revenue, and value-added functions, underestimates education's influence on productivity in traditional agriculture. Includes 13 references. (MLH)
