Agricultural equipment retailers (ER) in Myanmar were originally interviewed by telephone in May, June, July, and November 2020 to determine how their businesses were being affected by COVID-19 related restrictions. The results of those surveys were published in Myanmar Strategy Support Program Policy Notes 09, 16, 18, and 38, respectively. To trace the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their economic activities, a fifth phone survey of ERs was done in January 2021. This policy note reports on the results of this fifth survey round, as well as changes observed since the respondents were interviewed in earlier rounds.
