p<0.1 All regressions included standard errors clustered at the village level and the following controls (not shown): household size, number of children (<5 years old) in the household, age, sex, survey year, and treatments 1 and 2. OLS regressions include robust standard errors. BMI was transformed to natural logarithms. WHZ denotes child weight-for-height-Z-score.
