Tracking Adoption of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Report on Tracking Adoption of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Measuring the effectiveness of extension innovations for out-scaling agricultural technologies
Low adoption levels of agricultural technologies undermine the impacts of national and international agricultural research. Using a combination of an ordered logit and Heckman selection models and a case study from an ...
Socio-economic characterization of Gumara-Maksegnit watershed
Watershed degradation in Ethiopia has been intensified by a combination of factors such as improper agricultural practices on steep slopes, indiscriminate cutting of trees for fuel and construction and illegal/improper ...
Varietal output and adoption in barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea, and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Sudan
This chapter focuses on the improvements in the production of barley, chickpea, faba bean, field pea and lentil in Ethiopia, Eritrea and Sudan. Information on cultivar output and adoption of these crops is also presented.
Trends in Global and National Grain Legume Production and Trade: Implications on Local Chickpea and Lentil production Dynamics: The Case of Gimbichu and Minjar-Shenkora Districts of Ethiopia
The purpose of this study was to examine the major drivers of change shaping the current lentil and chickpea production dynamics and identify and prioritize researchable areas for further in-depth study in the future.
The ...
Gender Perspectives on the Dynamics of Lentil and Chickpea Production: the Case of Gimbichu and Minjar-Shenkora Districts, Ethiopia
Ethiopia has different agro-ecologies conducive for producing different crops. The country is the home of different pulse grain production and it was increased between 2000-2012 (Vincent and Jason 2013). Twelve pulse types ...
Current Situation, Investment Opportunities, and Future Outlooks of Malt Barley Production in Ethiopia
This study assesses the current situation and identifies opportunities and constraints along the malt barley value chain in Ethiopia. The future prospects of malt barley production, processing and marketing in line with ...
Adoption Study of Improved Barley Varieties in Ethiopia
Poverty eradication is the fundamental development agenda of the government of Ethiopia. In response to this, all the development policies and strategies of the country are oriented towards the achievement of this goal. ...
Bio-economic system model at the watershed level
The bio-economic and climate change modeling work under this project aims at mimicking the current decision making process of farmers in a systems’ context by intermarrying both the socioeconomic and biophysical dynamics ...
Modeling Farmers’ Adoption Decisions of Multiple Crop Technologies: The Case of Barley and Potatoes in Ethiopia
This paper argues and provides empirical evidence that adoption decisions on multiple technologies involve a series of three sequential sub-decisions. Using a multivariate tobit and multivariate probit models and a nationally ...
