↵Notes: Data are collected via the KIHS (2005 and 2010). Total farm work is the total number of minutes that all working-age household members spent working on the farm in one 24-hour period. All specifications include village fixed effects, district-year fixed effects, and day-of-week fixed effects. The log cereal values are calculated using Kyrgyzstan-specific FAO Annual Producer Prices for each crop in the analysis. Standard errors are clustered at the village level and in parentheses, with ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1.
