The Effects of Education in Agriculture: Evidence from Nepal
利用生产函数框架，研究尼泊尔现代化和传统农业中教育对生产力的影响，发现教育在现代化环境中回报更高，且分配效应超过工人效应。
Abstract The impact of education in modernizing and traditional agricultures of Nepal is investigated by utilizing a production function framework. Education is found to have higher payoff to productivity in a modernizing environment than in traditional agriculture. Higher (college) education has a significant role in a modernizing environment but not in the traditional area. While both worker and allocative effects of education contribute positively to agricultural production, allocative effect surpasses worker effect in both environments. However, only the input‐allocation component of the allocative effect is important in traditional areas, while both input‐allocation and input‐selection components are crucial in a modernizing agriculture.
