The study of 350 households in Kushtia district found that age, household size, and credit amount negatively impact income, while spouse's income positively affects it. Borrowing decisions are discouraged by higher income, older age, and larger household size. Participants face barriers including high interest rates, credit delays, and short repayment periods.
