| description | This report presents a dataset of the e-registration of farmers in Burundi for assessing the
adoption of innovations and the diffusion of new technologies. Data was collected from actors
after a census conducted in three steps. First, main crops production regions and value chain
actors were identified. In the second step, the list of actors was updated based on membership
of their associations. Finally, a census of all individual actors was conducted as well as the geo localization of all farmers’ fields and villages using GPS device. Data were collected for the
2022 growing seasons and the dataset contains 1,751 observations with 159 variables divided
into six sections: (i) preliminary information on the respondents; (ii) socio-economic
characteristics; (iii) information on the rice plots; (iv) knowledge, use and access to rice
varieties; (v) knowledge, use and access to agricultural equipment and methods; and (vi)
information on post-harvest activities. Five categories of actors were identified: seed producers
(127), crops producers (1,394), millers (35), traders (231) and service providers (8). On average,
a farmer grew three crops. The main crops of farmers were rice (745) followed by cassava
(254), banana (202), potato (181) and beans (131). The dataset is valuable for the diffusion at
large scale of improved technologies and an effective monitoring of the dissemination. Data
can be used by scientists to have better understanding of crops value chains, production systems,
the level of knowledge, accessibility and adoption of improved rice varieties and agricultural
technologies, for further research in the field of rice value chain development, technologies
testing and socioeconomic studies of rice value chain actors and other crops such as cassava,
banana, potato, and beans. Because of the large number of observations (1,751 actors), data can
be used as sampling frame for further experiments or surveys based on random samples.
Moreover, the dataset has the potential of generating descriptive statistics at the most
disaggregated level of administrative units or villages for different equipment, methods and
varieties adopted by gender and country. |
