Agricultural credit is an important instrument for improving farm productivity, the welfare of farm households, and their resilience to weather-related shocks.
The objective of this report is to present results from the baseline survey conducted as part of the Implementer-Led Evaluation and Learning (IMPEL) evaluation of SPIR II, a randomized controlled trial launched in 2022.
