1/ A summary of the @CASIPenn Ag Markets research w/ Mehkala Krishnamurthy, Devesh Kapur & @the_orientieer

Conducted in 2018-19 in 7 districts of Bihar, Odisha & Punjab.

Ethnographic research and quant surveys of farmers, intermediaries & other actors in the supply chain 2/ Market participation of farmers very low in Bihar & Odisha (B&O)

40-60% of farmers do not sell; farm for self-consumption.

Linked to the scale of farming. Farmers who sell are 2-3 times larger.
