Abstract

The objective of this presentation was to (1) identify stratification of households in peasant economies as a result of differences in capitals and livelihood strategies, (2) to assess the extent in which risk perceptions and coping strategies respond to such differences, and (3) to analyze the extent in which such differences should be considered for the identification of rural financial services.
