Notes – the table reports impact of distance to auction floor on maize, groundnut and pulses production, crop areas and production per hectare. Estimations are based on annual data from 2003–2004 to 2009–2010 (7 years). All estimations include EPA and year-fixed effects. All equations are estimated with OLS. Robust standard errors clustered by EPAs are given in parentheses below the coefficient. R2 = coefficient of determination and. * means significant at the 10 per cent level (p < 0.10), ** at the 5 per cent level (p < 0.05) and *** at the 1 per cent level (p < 0.01).
