Abstract
Farm households are heterogeneous inĀ· their financial needs depending on cash flow patterns, family lifestyle, and perception of investment opportunities. Thailand data show differences in cash flow between borrower and nonborrower households. The current one-sided emphasis on agricultural credit should be broadened to include other rural financial needs.
