Uganda: Policies for Improved Soil Nutrient Management, Output Trading Survey Dataset, 1999-2002

The research has utilized market, community, and household surveys to measure the impact of past and present policies on soil nutrient management in the Ugandan highlands; and developed market and household level models, based on the survey data, to evaluate the impacts of alternative policy options.
