| description | This study investigates the impact of improved millet and groundnut varieties on
smallholder farmers' productivity in Senegal. It explores adoption factors and yield
effects by analyzing data from 21 villages in Kaffrine, Louga, and Thiès regions. Climate-
Smart Agriculture training emerges as the primary adoption driver, increasing adoption
probabilities by 21.8% for millet and 26.6% for groundnut. Improved varieties
significantly boost millet yields by 91% (+360 kg/ha), while groundnut yields increase by
40% (+180 kg/ha), though not statistically significant. Aligning to Ricciardi et al. (2020),
the findings underscore the positive impact of agricultural technologies and emphasize
the need to understand adoption factors better. Recommendations include enhancing
training access, tailoring agricultural strategies to local contexts, and considering socioeconomic
and gender factors to optimize farm productivity and maximize innovation
benefits. |
