Estimating and Decomposing Groundnut Gender Yield Gap: Evidence from Rural Farming Households in Northern Nigeria
Using data from smallholder groundnut producers in Nigeria, we analyzed the gender yield gap by applying the exogenous switching regression model and Oaxaca–Blinder decomposition framework. Results showed a significant gender yield gap in favor of male headed households.
