Increasing Agricultural Productivity with Targeted Extension and Advisory Services
Recently, the use of improved technologies and increasing technical efficiency have been considered the two major pathways to sustainably increase agricultural productivity. The main aim of this study was to explore which factors might facilitate the designing of more-targeted extension and advisory services ( eas ) that can reduce technical inefficiencies, increase farmers’ knowledge about new agricultural technologies and stimulate their intent…
Bridging the gap
Female plot managers in Sub-Saharan Africa often realize significantly lower crop yields than their male counterparts.
