Note: Standard errors clustered at the household level are presented in parentheses. Time-varying household characteristics are also included in the model, but none are found to be statistically significant in the fixed- effects model and so are not presented. Results are available on request. LUC, land use certificate; OLS, ordinary least squares; OLS FE, ordinary least squares fixed effects.
