| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This paper presents a methodology for explicitly estimating the effect of environmental variability on rice yields. The yield distributions derived from environmental variability are utilized in a model of farmer decision-making in order to estimate the potential constraining effect of risk on the level of inputs used. |
