To overcome the theoretical and empirical shortfalls of previous studies of the demand for agricutural credit in developing countries, this report uses data from a 1970/71 survey of 3,000 farm households in India to test a life-cycle model of farm borrowing which: (1) defines the demand for credit to include not only the amount borrowed by farmers, but also farmer lending and other financial management activities; (2) examines the interaction between agricultural innovation (AI) and the demand for credit through two equations, one for the effect of AI on farmer demand for funds, the other for the relation of AI to interest rates (IR) and thus to the supply of funds; and (3) formulates the supply side of the market by modeling the IR as being jointly determined with the amount borrowed and by devising an imputation procedure for cases in which no external borrowing and thus no IR rate is reported. Results show that: (1) large farms tend to reduce their borrowings while small farms tend to increase theirs, implying that agrarian reform will increase aggregate borrowing; (2) the labor and capital markets are linked; (3) factor-market interactions are empirically significant and need

Operated in: Malaysia, India, Oceania, Guatemala, Asia.
Districts, regions and facilities the program's own documents name, with what the document says it did there. Source: sentences in the program's documents
Districts, regions and facilities named in the program's own documents, not verified sites. Place dots exist for Malawi and Guatemala only so far.
Sample Built from district names in Malawi documents while the full place data loads; it is not yet the finished place list.
Solid: the documents describe the program's work there. Faint: named in the program's documents. Bigger means more mentions. Shown: district; squares are facilities.
Countries where this program operated, set by the countries its documents name most often. Countries only tagged on documents are listed apart. Source: document tags, scope rule
Scope: global. How the scope was set is not described yet. High confidence.
How sure we are: 0.95.
When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate. Source: award and document years
Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from first seen; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
Who started the program, and which administration it began under. Timing only; it does not say who started it. Source: initiative records, start year
