dc.descriptionThe first author would like to acknowledge the University of Aberdeen and the Henderson Economics Research Fund for funding his PhD studies in the period 2011–2014 which formed the basis for the research presented in this paper. The first author would also like to acknowledge the Macaulay Development Trust which funds his postdoctoral fellowship with The James Hutton Institute. The data used in this paper come from a nationally representative survey of households in Uganda. The survey was designed and implemented by the Uganda Bureau of Statistics with the assistance of the World Bank Living Standards Measurement Study – Integrated Surveys of Agriculture program. We thank both institutions for making these data openly available. Special thanks are due to David Harvey (Editor-in-Chief) and two anonymous referees for a variety of comments leading to a substantially improved paper. All usual caveats apply.en
