HER+ Sustainable Land Management Trial in Ethiopia: Endline Survey

The HER+ Sustainable Land Management Study is a randomized controlled trial evaluating a bundled intervention that provides training and inputs (including 4-6 fruit tree seedlings, vegetable seeds, and tools) to encourage extremely poor rural Ethiopian households to adopt three complementary sustainable land management (SLM) practices: fruit tree planting, composting, and home gardening. The baseline survey was conducted in May-June 2023, followed by the intervention, with the endline study completed in May-June 2024. The study covers 95 sub-districts, with 20 households randomly selected in each sub-district from among beneficiaries of the Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP) who met pre-specified eligibility criteria, resulting in a total sample of 1,900 households. The data presented here is from the endline survey.
