This paper aims to shed new light on Bt cotton in Pakistan.

Second, the paper characterizes cotton-producing households across several dimensions using household survey data collected in 2012. Third, the paper examines areas for further policy-relevant research that could improve the capacity of cotton-producing households in Pakistan to realize greater benefits from Bt cotton cultivation.
