Smallholder farmers’ willingness to pay for multi-stress tolerant varieties
Several biotic and abiotic factors constrain progress in African agriculture. We assess the prevalence of and farmers’ willingness to pay (WTP) for varieties tolerant to fall army worm (FAW) Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) in maize (Zea mays), rust disease in Soybean (Glycine max) and rosette disease in groundnuts (Arachis hypogaea) using experimental auctions. Pest/disease incidences varied across the three countries during the 2022/2023 seas…
Unravelling farmers’ sticky varietal preferences against pro-nutritional crops
Adoption of pro-nutritional crop varieties such as orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP) remains limited among smallholder farmers in Malawi, despite their proven superiority to conventional varieties in improving household nutrition and income. Understanding the behavioural and contextual factors underpinning varietal preferences is critical for designing effective interventions. This study employed a contingent valuation approach to elicit farmers…
Agricultural commercialisation and household welfare
This study examines the effect of agricultural commercialisation on household welfare using survey data from 2,400 households. To address potential selection bias arising from non-random participation and unobserved heterogeneity, three econometric approaches were employed: Propensity Score Matching (PSM), Endogenous Switching Regression Model (ESRM), and Inverse Probability Weighted Regression Adjustment (IPWRA), to estimate the causal treatment…
Asymmetric price transmission and market integration in Malawi’s selected rice markets
The study examined the presence of asymmetric price transmission among selected rice markets in Malawi. Using the World Bank’s monthly price data compiled from various markets from 2007 to 2024, the study applied the Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model (NARDL) to capture both short-term and long-term asymmetric price transmission among rice markets. The results show that Malawi's rice prices maintain steady long-term relationships, wit…
Willingness to pay for improved water supply services in Malawi’s small-scale irrigation schemes
Small-scale irrigation schemes play a pivotal role in enhancing the resilience of smallholder farming systems by shielding agricultural production from climate shocks such as droughts and erratic rainfall. These schemes are potential game changers for Malawi's agriculture sector, which is highly vulnerable to inconsistent rainfall patterns that undermine crop yields and threaten livelihoods. However, the effectiveness and sustainability of irriga…
What incentives motivate smallholder farmers to reduce deforestation? Evidence from Nigeria's rainforest region
Deforestation has persistently undermined forests' critical role in providing environmental services and livelihood support. In developing countries like Nigeria, small-scale agriculture significantly drives deforestation. This study analyzes farmers' preferences for incentives to reduce deforestation and its influencing factors using data from 634 smallholder farmers in Cross Rivers State, located in Nigeria's rainforest region. The Conditional …
