Measuring the Effects of Prime-age Adult Mortality in Kenya

Author(s):  Yamano,Takashi;Jayne,Thomas

Introduction

This paper estimates the impact of
prime-age adult mortality on household composition,
crop production, asset holdings, and non-farm income
using nationwide household survey data in rural
Kenya. Life expectancy has declined by 10 years due
in Kenya due to HIV/AIDS. Linking detailed
nationwide household survey data on agricultural
production, off-farm incomes, assets, and
mortality/morbidity, this work goes beyond village
case studies that have limited earlier work on the topic.
