_Source:_ Own computation based on PSG records. _Note:_ The types of support other than PSG was a multi response question and hence they do not add up to one, and the other category includes cash grant. Other purposes for which SAR was used include checking information on land parcels or prices. _Δ_ Sig is the result of a t test for _ΔPSG_ - _ΔNon-PSG_ = 0 where _ΔPSG_ and _ΔNon-PSG_ is the difference between values in 2023 and 2022, for PSG participants and eligible non-participants, respectively.
