英文文献摘要：
The Farm Input Subsidy Program (FISP) in Malawi was introduced in 2005/06 season against the background of bad weather affecting production, prolonged food shortages and high input prices in the absence of soft farm input loans for smallholder farmers. The primary purpose of the program was to increase resource-poor smallholder farmers’ access to improved agricultural farm inputs to achieve food self-sufficiency and increased income through increased maize and legume production. This paper uses a recently released panel data of nationally representative sample households combined with geo-referenced climate and administrative data to analyze FISP targeting effectiveness and the program’s impact on a broad set of welfare outcome variables including consumption, caloric intake, marketed surplus and crop productivity, within a context of climate variability. Our study finds that Malawi’s FISP targeting needs to improve if the primary target is to reach resource-poor and climate-constrained households. Moreover, results show that the program is positively associated with household welfare, food security and productivity. Heterogeneity analysis also suggests that the program benefits households residing in areas characterized by higher climate variability, with a stronger impact for a larger level of treatment.
马拉维的农业投入补贴计划(FISP)是在2005/06季度推出的，当时恶劣天气影响生产、粮食长期短缺和投入价格高企，同时又没有为小农户提供软农业投入贷款。该方案的主要目的是增加资源贫乏的小农获得改良农业投入的机会，以实现粮食自给自足，并通过增加玉米和豆类作物的产量增加收入。本文使用一个最近发布了面板数据的代表性家庭结合地理气候和管理数据分析FISP目标有效性和程序对一组广泛的福利结果变量的影响包括消费、热量摄取,销售盈余和作物生产力,在气候变化的背景下。我们的研究发现，如果首要目标是惠及资源匮乏和气候受限的家庭，马拉维的FISP目标就需要改进。此外，结果显示，该计划与家庭福利、粮食安全和生产力呈正相关。异质性分析还表明，该方案对居住在气候变化较大地区的家庭有利，对更大程度的治疗有更强的影响。
