This document outlines a study on the effect of crop diversity on farm household poverty dynamics in Nigeria. It discusses the motivation, objectives, data, estimation strategy, and results. The study uses panel data from Nigeria from 2010-2016 to estimate an endogenous switching model to assess how crop diversity affects poverty transitions and persistence. It analyzes poverty status in the current and previous period, household retention between periods, and the correlations between error terms to account for unobserved heterogeneity. The results will help identify sustainable agricultural practices that can improve welfare and help households withstand climate change impacts.
