The Effect of Household Wealth on Input Market Participation in Southern Africa 31
Langyintuo, Augustine S.; Mungoma, Catherine.

Zambia's Stop-And-Go Revolution: The Impact of Policies and Organizations on the Development and Spread of Maize Technology 31
Howard, Julie A.; Mungoma, Catherine.
This paper explores how Zambia's policy and organizational environment has shaped the development, spread, and more recently, the disadoption of maize technology.

Options facing Zambian policy makers for increasing food production under evolving political and economic conditions are discussed in the light of these experiences.
