Researchers at University of California, Davis in US compared
polygynous and monogamous households in 56 villages in northern
Tanzania, where polygyny is widespread among certain ethnic groups,
including the Maasai. When comparing households within individual
villages, polygynous households often had better access to food and
healthier children. Polygynous households also owned more cattle and
farmed more land than monogamous households.
