Using field experiments to quantify risk and time preferences of Ugandan coffee farmers in participating in forest landscape restoration

The objectives of this study hence are (1) to elicit both risk and time preferences of smallholder coffee farmers in eastern Uganda by using lottery-based experiments, and (2) to investigate key attributes or features of companion trees in coffee agroforestry systems that are preferred by farmers using a discrete choice experiment (DCE). We investigate farmer preferences related to six companion tree attributes: tree products provided, regulating ES provided, growth rate, seedling price, provision of quality shade for coffee, and maximum tree height.
