ME Marginal effects, MEs for factor variables is the discrete change from the base level, HH Household, ha hectare, TLU Tropical Livestock Unit

† Marginal effects (dy/dx) are average marginal effects (AME), i.e., evaluated at the sample values and then averaged

*** p < 0.01, ** p < 0.05, * p < 0.1
