Informal Cross-Border Agricultural Trade
SAWTEE is implementing the project from May 2023 to April 2024. The project is supported by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). In Nepal, informal cross-border trade is an important part of total trade and can play a critical role in poverty alleviation, food security, and households’ livelihoods if managed well. This study aims at unpacking the scale and characteristics of informal agricultural trade of Nepal to contribute to an informed policy discourse.
