Household Survey, “Wheat Seed Information Networks and Seed Acquisition Practices in Bihar”

This dataset is built from a survey among wheat farming households in Bihar state. The survey was conducted by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) between August and September 2021. In total, the questionnaire was administered to 1,008 wheat-growing households. The survey elicited information on various topics, for example, socio-demographic characteristics, wheat cultivation, varietal use, access to seed sources, and asset ownership. We collected gender-disaggregated data asking men and women in the same household a predefined set of questions, such as influence in intra-household decision-making.
