Abstract
⺠We estimate the treatment effects of agricultural cooperatives and extension services. ⺠Publicly funded extension services have a modest effect on farm income. ⺠The effect of the agricultural cooperative is highly heterogeneous in favor of smallholders. ⺠Nevertheless, most of them are shunned out of the contract. ⺠This poses serious challenges to pro-poor agricultural growth in China.
