Implication

Observational analysis reveals sustainable intensification improves productivity and profitability in rice-wheat farming, suggesting equitable development is needed.

Key Points

Joint adoption of direct seeded rice and zero-tillage wheat boosts productivity by 19%, enhancing farm efficiency.
Production costs decreased by 18%, translating to an increase in farm profits by 84%, showcasing financial benefits.
Findings utilize multinomial endogenous switching regression to control for selection bias, ensuring robust results.
Highlighting the disparities, poorer farms derive less benefit from sustainable intensification, indicating a need for targeted policy.
