_Note_ **_:_** Results are from 2019-2022 panel regressions where the unit of observation is the village council and the dependent variable is the NDVI for fields planted with winter wheat in each of the relevant years. Crimea and areas that have been occupied since 2014 are excluded. GDD is cumulative growing degree days above 0°C between October 1and May 31 approximated hourly by sinusoidal distribution of minimum and maximum temperature (d’Agostino and Schlenker, 2016); and fall, winter and spring months are Oct-Nov, Dec-Feb, and Mar-May, respectively. ‘Any’ (Col. 5) is the maximum over the 8 two-week periods considered whereas ‘conflict intensity’ (col 6) accounts for the temporal dimension by taking a value of 1 for any of the 8 two-week periods when any conflict activity was observed. See appendix table 1 for full specification including weather variables. Standard errors in parentheses. * p<0.10, ** p<0.05, *** p<0.010.
