Smallholder farmers' willingness to pay for the farmbetter mobile app-based agricultural extension: Evidence from a BDM experiment in Tanzania and Burkina Faso
Financial contributions from farmers are increasingly acknowledged as a sustainable mechanism for funding extension services. However, the literature on willingness to pay (WTP) for digital agricultural extension is limited. Conducting a thorough assessment of WTP for digital extension is critical for designing effective pricing policies and ensuring financial sustainability. This study examines the WTP for a novel digital extension platform name…
Adoption of sustainable land and water management practices and their impact on crop productivity among smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa
Land degradation and water challenges threaten sub-Saharan Africa's agricultural productivity and food security. This study uses panel secondary data from the World Bank Living Standards Measurement Study—Integrated Surveys on Agriculture project to evaluate land degradation variations, the adoption of sustainable land and water management (SLWM) practices, and their impacts on crop yields among smallholder farmers in four sub-Saharan African cou…
A meta‐analysis of SES framework case studies: Identifying dyad and triad archetypes
There is a need to synthesize the vast amount of empirical case study research on social‐ecological systems (SES) to advance theory. Innovative methods are needed to identify patterns of system interactions and outcomes at different levels of abstraction. Many identifiable patterns may only be relevant to small sets of cases, a sector or regional context, and some more broadly. Theory needs to match these levels while still retaining enough detai…
The quinoa boom and the commoditisation debate: Critical reflections on the re-emergence of a peasantry in the Southern Altiplano
Quinoa farmers and new Peasantry in Bolivia Quinoa is currently integrated in global production networks, although this crop was almost completely unknown some decades ago. In Bolivia, prices of quinoa reached an all-time high in 2013 and 2014, which resulted in an important expansion of the agricultural frontier. This article discusses the impact of the quinoa boom through the lenses of the commoditisation debate. It examines practises and perce…
Using the Constitutionality Framework to Understand Alliances, Collective Action, and Divisions Between Indigenous and Peasant Communities in the Chaco Salteño
This article analyzes bottom-up institution-building processes in a region considered deforestation and environmental degradation hotspot. Utilizing the constitutionality approach developed by Haller, Acciaioli, and Rist (2016), we examine two recent cases of bottom-up institution-building in the department of Rivadavia, Chaco Salteño, Argentina. We highlight the similarities and differences between both constitutionality processes and identify v…

Understanding the adoption of sustainable silvopastoral practices in Northern Argentina: What is the role of land tenure
Quinoa and production rules: How are cooperatives contributing to governance of natural resources
The sharp increase in the price and production of quinoa between 1990 and 2014 has had important impacts in Bolivia’s southern Altiplano region, previously considered one of the poorest regions in the country. The socio-economic status of most inhabitants improved significantly as a result of the “quinoa boom”. However, it also caused severe disturbances in socio-ecological systems and posed challenges to resource governance by traditional indige…
