dc.titleThe two-faced challenge of the credit constraints limiting smallholder farmers’ irrigation investmentsen
dcterms.abstractMany smallholder farmers, especially women and other marginalized groups, face difficulty in accessing loans and other forms of credit. Such credit constraints are often considered a key barrier to adoption of mechanized agricultural technologies, such as small scale irrigation equipment. So how can this challenge be overcome? A new study indicates that the solution might be more complex than previously assumed.en
