This study examined the association between CSA adoption intensity and multidimensional poverty among smallholder maize-farming households in Kenya.
This paper analyses the effects of agricultural modernisation on the food security of rural households in Burkina Faso. It uses data from the Permanent Agricultural Survey (EPA 2021).
This study used panel data from the 2016 and 2019 waves of the Malawi Integrated Household Survey to examine the impact of credit access on smallholder farmers’ maize productivity and household food security.
This study investigates the impacts of climate-smart agricultural (CSA) services on farmers’ resilience in the Gubalafto district of Ethiopia.
This study uses the censored quadratic almost ideal demand system (QUAIDS) to estimate Marshallian own- and cross-price elasticities for six food groups.
The paper investigates how agricultural trade credit (ATC) extended to smallholder cereal farmers leads to an (in)efficient agricultural marketing systems for farm produce in Ghana.

This study examines the extent to which, in the Sahelian environment – where the scarcity of forage is intensifying – climate change perceptions influence the adoption of cottonseed cake among livestock producers in the Hauts-Bassins region of Burkina Faso.
Rural areas across the developing countries in every region of the world lag behind their urban counterparts in many important sectors and, most importantly, in improved water supply services.
In this study, we investigate whether land tenure security is a pull factor for household income diversification.
This study examines the impact of remoteness on productivity growth among Malawian smallholder farmers.
This study examines how climate variability affects agricultural productivity and economic growth in Nigeria using time-series data from 1960 to 2024.
This study examined the effect of sustainable intensification (SI) technologies, specifically the use of improved maize seed varieties, of improved bean seed varieties (Nua45), crop rotation, maize-legume intercropping and doubled-up legume systems on farm income in Dedza district, Malawi.

Cet article analyse l’impact des chocs agro-climatiques sur la sécurité alimentaire des ménages ruraux sénégalais à l'aide d'un modèle probit ordonné. La méthode du score de consommation alimentaire est utilisée pour appréhender l'état de la sécurité alimentaire des ménages. L’étude montre que 14% des ménages vivant en milieu rural sont à consommation alimentaire faible, 17% à consommation alimentaire limite, et 69% à consommation alimentaire acceptable.
En se basant sur les pratiques endogènes de restauration de la fertilité des sols les plus connues dans la région du nord du Burkina Faso, cet article analyse l’adoption de stratégies supplémentaires d’adaptation au changement climatique à l’aide de données primaires collectées auprès de 106 agricultrices.
Low agricultural commercialisation due to low productivity and a lack of access to and use of improved seeds are common features of smallholders in the Ethiopian highlands. Seed-producer cooperatives (SPCs) were established and strengthened in these highlands to facilitate smallholders’ access to improved seed.
This study investigates how public agricultural expenditure can mitigate the effect of climate variability on banks’ agricultural credit supply in sub-Saharan Africa.
The current study investigated the impact of using information and communication technology-based weather information services on the adoption of climate change adaptation strategies.
Understanding rice farmers’ responses to market prices is essential for policy makers to design effective policies to better manage input demand and rice supply. This paper applies duality theory to derive the elasticities of input demand and output supply for Vietnamese rice production using a translog profit function approach.
