Assistant Professor Guilherme DePaula published an invited article in VoxDev. DePaula authored "Bundled contracts and technological diffusion caused the Brazilian soybean boom." DePaula's article examines the introduction of a private, bundled contract that addresses the multiple barriers to technological diffusion in the Brazilian Savanna and demonstrates that a contractual innovation was at the heart of the transformation of the Brazilian Savanna into a major global source of soybeans.
