6.4.3 Household income
Change in per capita income is used as the welfare indicator in this study. Household income
includes agriculture, non-agriculture business, waged income, and expenditure on own-
produced agricultural products. Own-produced consumption represents a large portion of
household consumption and to neglect this area of income would be to underestimate
household income. New income in the simulation is calculated by adding the estimated gain
to income in the baseline (as in Chen and Ravallion, 2004).
