Harnessing climate information service use for cocoa farming sustainability in Ghana
Climate change poses significant challenges to agricultural sectors worldwide, including the cocoa industry, which is highly vulnerable to climate variability. Understanding how climate information services (CIS) can support cocoa farmers in adapting to these challenges is crucial for enhancing resilience and ensuring the sustainability of cocoa production. We employed a survey methodology that usedd a simple random sampling technique to select 4…
Modelling the Record Keeping Behaviour of Cocoa Farmers in Ghana
This study models the record-keeping behaviour of cocoa farmers in order to stimulate well-informed education and sensitization of the practice among cocoa farmers.

Descriptive statistics, a triple hurdle econometric strategy, and Kendall’s Coefficient of Concordance were the methods of analysis. The findings reveal that the majority of the cocoa farmers keep f…
Amplifying Voices for Climate Resilience
Climate change poses a significant threat to smallholder farmers, who are disproportionately affected due to their reliance on rain-fed agriculture and limited resources for adaptation. Farm radio programmes have emerged as a vital tool to offer an accessible and cost-effective means to deliver climate-related knowledge, crucial for building resilience. This study assesses how these programmes promote climate adaptation and mitigation strategies …
Household welfare outcomes of access to and use of agricultural radio broadcast by women cocoa farmers in Tepa district, Ghana

Who Does What? Analysing Gender Division of Labour in Cocoa Households in the Asante Akim North Municipality, Ghana
In a typical cocoa farming household, the question of who among the different genders does what needs to be assessed. This is because it is often thought that males do the majority of work in the household. In bringing balance to this argument, this study used the Caroline Moser framework to assess the gender division of labour in cocoa households in the Asante Akim North Municipality in Ghana. In using a mixed methods approach, questionnaires we…
Maize farmers’ response to crisis
The Fall Armyworm (FAW) is among the most devastating plant pests in terms of crop loss and economic impact. It was first reported in 2016 and has spread rapidly across the African continent, causing extensive damage to maize crops. With the importance of maize in food security and livelihoods, understanding effective communication channels is crucial. The study was designed to evaluate maize farmers’ communicative interventions in response to fa…
