Abstract

This study highlights a significant gap between theoretical understanding and the actual use of social media tools by agricultural extension agents (AEAs). A quantitative study was undertaken to give clear understanding on how various theoretical perspectives in the area of adoption of social media play out in reality among the agricultural extension agents. A sample size of 418 AEAs in the Eastern Region, Ghana were selected using the snowballing sampling technique. The following constructs were rated highest by the respondents; observability, (innovation diffusion theory), continuance intention (theory of task-technology fit), perceived usefulness of social media (theory of reasoned action, theory of planned behaviour, theory of acceptance model) and performance expectancy (unified theory of acceptance and use of technology). Majority of the AEAs highly use social media. High cost of repair of devices, high charges by network providers and lack of knowledge of the best social media use were perceived as substantial challenges. The results show that extension agents must be encouraged to leverage social media platforms to provide personalised support, answer farmers' queries, and offer guidance, leading to better adoption of recommended agricultural practices.

Abstract

The Takalar Regency Spatial Plan designates the Sanrobone sub-district as an area for the cultivation of food crops, horticultural crops, and plantations. Agriculture in Sanrobone plays a crucial role in fulfilling food needs and driving economic growth in rural areas. The research aims to identify superior commodities, determine the agropolitan activity center, and develop strategies for the agropolitan area in the Sanrobone sub-district. The study was conducted from June to November 2022, covering six villages in the Sanrobone sub-district. The analytical techniques employed include LQ analysis, Shift share analysis, Klassen typology, qualitative descriptive analysis, and SWOT analysis. The research findings reveal that the superior commodity of Sanrobone is Chili Pepper, while prospective commodities are Corn and Paddy, and the lagging commodity is Seagrass. The agropolitan activity center is the main farming town in Banyuanyara, with production centers in the village of Tonasa, and farmer collection towns in Paddinging, Ujung Baji, Lagaruda, and Sanrobone. The recommended strategy is a progressive approach, where empowering farmer groups can enhance the economy, especially in the agricultural sector. Encouraging farmer groups in each village to actively participate in established joint farming groups can boost the potential of food crop agriculture in each village and contribute to the development of the agropolitan area.

Abstract

The study aims to stimulate the potential of a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in West Papua province, which ranks 33rd (out of 34) on the Indonesian Food and Nutrition Security (FNS) Index and where stunting is a public health challenge. The authors analyzed the potential by using FNS Indicators and examining the results of discussions with the stakeholders. We propose to focus interventions on the provision of food for vulnerable individuals, behavioral change communication to improve the consumption of healthy local food, improvement of the knowledge of mothers and other household members about food and nutrition, the promotion and reinforcement of exclusive breastfeeding for children below six months, the improvement of access to clean water and latrines, the improvement of access to preventive and health care services by providing one nutritionist per village, and the provision of iron and folic-acid tablets to pregnant women and adolescent girls. A multi-stakeholder effort should be put in place, led by the provincial government, comprising representatives from the offices of public works, health, education, and social affairs. The network should involve the 36 private companies based in the area. Educational materials could be reproduced by the printing companies and distributed by the construction, fishing, and timber companies. The government of West Papua should identify food and nutrition as a priority concern and widen its existing PPP activities beyond Corporate Social Responsibility.

Abstract

This study assessed adoption of improved production technologies among rice farmers’ in Wase Local Government Areas of Plateau State, Nigeria. Multistage sampling technique was used in the selection of 160 respondents for the study. Descriptive statistics, four point Likert scale and Logit regression were used to achieve the objectives of the study. Findings from the study revealed the mean age of the farmers to be 40years. Majority (67%) of the respondents were males and 91% of them married.  44% of the respondents had secondary education and a mean farming experience of 8 years. Majority (64%) of the respondents had farming as their major occupation on average farm sizes of 1.6 hectares. The mean annual income of the farmers was N 202,356. Improved rice production technologies such as appropriate time of harvesting (3.44), land preparation by tractors (3.42), recommended time of weeding (3.41), appropriate planting dates (3.25), use of herbicides (3.24), improved seed varieties (3.11),  application of recommended fertilizer (3.05), nursery practice and transplanting (2.73) all had high levels of awareness and adoption respectively among the farmers. Age, educational status, farming experience, farm size, extension contact and annual income were significant determinant of adoption of improved rice production technologies. High cost of technology (69%), inadequate extension contact (61%) inadequate credit access (48%) and lack of accessibility of some technologies (28.0) were the major constraints affecting adoption of improved rice production technologies. The study recommended the subsidization of inputs (improved seeds, fertilizers and agro-chemicals) by government to reduce cost of production.

Abstract

Egypt Navel orange planted area reached about 174.6 thousand acres during the average period of 2012-2020. Delta governorates is the major orange’s productive region in Egypt with 97.4% of the total production of the country. 87.2% of orange’s planted area came from only five Delta governorates. The top planted area governorates are El Behera with an acreage area representing about (41.3%), followed by Qalyoubia (16.7%), Ismailia (11.1%), Menufia (9.54%) and Sharqiya (8.52%) of total planted areas during the period 2012-2020. El-Behera is the major Navel orange’s productive governorate in Egypt with (43.9%) of Egyptian total production of Navel orange, followed by Qalyoubia (18.8%), Menufia (9.2%), Ismailia (8.3) and Sharqiya (7.7%) of Navel orange total production during the period 2012-2020. In recent years, small scale farmers have experienced technical, environmental and economic problems. This study will shade light on the economic problems because fruit prices have come to a standstill or even decreased while the production costs have risen continuously. The present study depends on data collected from the private small farm planted with Washington Navel orange trees [Citrus sinensis L.(Osbeck)] since 1968, which is located in Minyat as Siba,  Benha-Qalyoubia governorate, Egypt. The result shows that the average values of fertilizers, pests and diseases account for a large proportion of the total costs, representing about 42.57% and 26.47% respectively from the total production costs during 2012-2022. Prices received for Navel oranges fluctuate markedly from year to year. This combined with fluctuations in yields. Over the period 2012 to 2022 farm gate prices of Navel orange averaged 2905 Egyptian pound (LE) per ton, with the minimum of LE 1750 per ton in 2012 and the maximum of LE 4000 per ton in the 2019, 2020 and 2021.

Abstract

The encroachment of small-scale mining (galamsey) on fertile lands poses a significant threat to cocoa cultivation, affecting farmers' livelihoods and raising concerns about environmental sustainability. This study addresses the complex interaction between small-scale mining and cocoa farming. Conducted in the Bosome Freho district, Ashanti Region, the study employs a quantitative research design, utilizing a survey method with 316 cocoa farmers affected by galamsey. Descriptive statistics, including frequency and percentages, are applied to analyze data. Factors driving cocoa farmers to participate in galamsey include perceived profitability, low cocoa yields, high maintenance costs, and reduced cocoa prices. The perceived impact of galamsey on livelihood outcomes reveals concerns about environmental degradation, reduced farm output, soil fertility decline, and health and safety risks. Livelihood strategies employed include on-farm practices like intercropping and livestock rearing. Galamsey poses multifaceted challenges to cocoa farmers, affecting not only their livelihoods but also the environment and socioeconomic activities. The study highlights the need for comprehensive policies addressing the complex interplay between mining and agriculture, safeguarding environmental sustainability and farmers' well-being. The findings inform policymakers of the urgent need for stricter regulations, environmental safeguards, and diversified livelihood options for cocoa farmers.
