Bihar, India's poorest state, witnessed impressive yield growth in each of its three principal crops over 2005–17. This paper examines whether a convergence in district yields accompanied the improvement in yields at the state level, thereby reducing regional inequalities in land productivity. The convergence test allows the idiosyncratic element of productivity to be time-varying, thus allowing yields to diverge in some interim phases. District rice...
