      abstract = {This paper provides microeconomic evidence on food  security impacts of privately organized biofuel outgrower  schemes in Ethiopia. We conducted a household and community  level survey and evaluated the impact of castor bean  farming. We use endogenous switching regressions to analyze  the impact on food security. Food security (as measured by  a “food gap”) and food caloric intake is significantly  better in households producing castor beans. “Fuel” and  “food” are complements rather than substitutes at the  micro-level in castor production in Ethiopia.},
