Trade policy and access to intermediate inputs : quantifying the welfare costs of a fertilizer shortage

Ghose, Devaki; Fraga, Eduardo; Fernandes, Ana Margarida - 2026

This paper leverages Sri Lanka's 2021 chemical fertilizer import ban to quantify the costs of restricted fertilizer access for agriculture, trade, and welfare. Leveraging trade and production data, satellite-based yield estimates, and event studies, we document sharp declines in fertilizer...

Fertilizer use intensification and manure use : the case of Tigrai, northern Ethiopia

Araya, Girmay Berhe; Holden, Stein Terje - 2025

There has been an increase in fertilizer use among farmers in the semi-arid Tigray region of Ethiopia during 2006-2015. Our household panel data covering nine years show that the average fertilizer adoption rate had increased from about 31% of plots in 2006 to almost 67% in 2015. Likewise,...

Closing Data Gaps in Fertilizer Subsidy Analysis in Bangladesh : A Survey-to-Survey Imputation Approach

Jonaed, FNU; Gachet Otanez, Ivan; Tornarolli, Leopoldo - 2026

Bangladesh's fertilizer subsidy costs $2.5 billion annually and accounts for nearly two-thirds of agricultural spending, yet its distributional impact remains unknown due to data limitations. This impedes reform of a policy that may favor larger farmers while crowding out investment in public...
