本研究考察了津巴布韦独立后重新安置在前白人农场的一组家庭的收入动态。有四个核心发现：(i)在13年期间（1983- 1996），资产积累令人印象深刻，作物收入大幅增加；（ii）作物收入的增长部分是由于资产积累，而资产回报的增加；（iii）家庭在初始条件上的差异，例如以前的耕作经验，几乎没有持久的影响；（四）收入增长被广泛分享，收入不平等急剧下降，收入增幅最大的是那些最初收入最低的家庭。
This study examines income dynamics for a panel of households resettled on former white-owned farms in the aftermath of Zimbabwe's independence. There are four core findings: (i) over a 13-year period'(1983-96) there has been an impressive accumulation of assets and a dramatic increase of crop incomes, (ii) the rise of crop incomes is partly due to asset accumulation bus largely to increased asset returns; (iii) differences between households in initial conditions, such as previous farming experience, have few persistent effects; and (iv) income growth has been widely shared, income inequality has fallen sharply and the largest percentage increases in incomes are recorded by households that initially had the lowest incomes.
