Areas of interest
- Productivity and efficiency measurements in agriculture
- Total factor productivity measurements and sources of growth
- Underlying areas of technological change in agriculture

I am a leading researcher on agricultural, environmental and/or resource economics focusing on the developing economies, specifically South and Southeast Asia, China and Africa. The core concern of my research is to improve understanding of the range of factors influencing agricultural and economic development in developing economies and to promote their integration into policy and practice. I have a keen interest in production economics, environmental and resource economics, energy use in agriculture, climate change, household level decision-making, poverty and livelihoods, and economic development in rural/urban areas and their determinants.
