**Notes** : ‡ Sample excludes plots that were subject to full-plot crop cut in MAPS II. † denotes a dummy variable. ***/**/* denote statistical significance at the 1/5/10 percent level, respectively. Production indicated as "heaped" if at least one condition of harvest was reported as 100, 200, 300, 400, or 500 kg, or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 10 100 kg sacks. Overall R<sup>2</sup> reported for panel specifications.
