Other results

Among other variables, several were significantly related to the incidence of land
improvements.
In Eastern province, size of farm was the most important explanatory variable. Farm
size was positively associated with a greater likelihood of using formal credit, possessing oxen, using
organic fertilizer inputs, making earthwork structures, making waterwork structures, making fencing
improvements, and planting fruit trees (i.e., all of the dependent variables used). In Southern province
size of farm was less important and was linked to organic fertilizer application (negatively) and to
planting of multipurpose trees and the presence of oxen (positively).
