induced by changes in wind across years, I show that higher levels of pollution lead to decreased agricultural productivity …, with large changes in productivity being common. The negative effects of pollution are larger in areas growing more labor …-intensive crops, indicating that the pollution works at least partly through direct effects on labor productivity. Finally, combining …

Climate change has increased rainfall uncertainty, leading to greater production risks in agriculture. We examine the … droughts, and are consequently unable to cope fully with the adverse agricultural productivity shock. Our findings can be …

-sector neoclassical framework with agriculture and non-agriculture, we derive the productivity-adjusted aggregate labor income share in … terms of the agricultural productivity gap, and the labor income share in non-agriculture and value-added factor shares. We … theory-based adjustment to our data, the average values for the aggregate and agricultural productivity-adjusted labor income …

We use two different agricultural production measures: (i) the agricultural component of GDP and (ii) agricultural … labor productivity. Employing a combination of panel-data and instrumental- variable methods, we show that agricultural …
