   title => protected'The role of extension and information in the adoption of sustainable soil ma
      nagement practices in Ethiopia
' (106 chars) abstract => protected'The slow adoption of new agricultural technologies is an important factor in
       explaining persistent productivity deficits and poverty among smallholders
      in Sub-Saharan Africa. Farmer-to farmer extension models aim to diffuse tech
      nology information from extension agents to model farmers and farmer group m
      embers, and then further on to other community members. Yet, only few studie
      s investigate how to design modalities for information transmission effectiv
      ely, in particular for complex and knowledge-intensive technology packages.
      In this study we assess the effects of farmer-to-farmer extension and an add
      itional video intervention on the adoption of ‘Integrated Soil Fertility M
      anagement’ (ISFM) among 2,382 small-scale farmers in Ethiopia using a rand
      omized controlled trial. We find that both extension-only and extension comb
      ined with video induce ISFM adoption and gains in knowledge. While effects a
      re stronger for active participants, we find evidence that information diffu
      ses to community members not actively participating in the extension activit
      ies. The additional video intervention shows a significant complementary eff
      ect for these non-actively involved farmers, in particular when it comes to
      the integrated adoption of the full technology package.

The role of extension and information in the adoption of sustainable soil management practices in Ethiopia

Abstract

The slow adoption of new agricultural technologies is an important factor in explaining persistent productivity deficits and poverty among smallholders in Sub-Saharan Africa. Farmer-to farmer extension models aim to diffuse technology information from extension agents to model farmers and farmer group members, and then further on to other community members. Yet, only few studies investigate how to design modalities for information transmission effectively, in particular for complex and knowledge-intensive technology packages. In this study we assess the effects of farmer-to-farmer extension and an additional video intervention on the adoption of ‘Integrated Soil Fertility Management’ (ISFM) among 2,382 small-scale farmers in Ethiopia using a randomized controlled trial. We find that both extension-only and extension combined with video induce ISFM adoption and gains in knowledge. While effects are stronger for active participants, we find evidence that information diffuses to community members not actively participating in the extension activities. The additional video intervention shows a significant complementary effect for these non-actively involved farmers, in particular when it comes to the integrated adoption of the full technology package.
