Sex-disaggregated agricultural extension and weather variability in Africa south of the Sahara by Azzarri, Carlo, Nico, Gianluigi

“…Moreover, these services can mitigate the negative effects of weather variability and climate change, controlling for country and time fixed effects as well as holding all other variables constant. These results call for national and international policies and interventions strengthening rural advisory services, especially targeted to women in settings where household livelihoods are predominantly agriculture-based and weather variability and shocks are expected to negatively affect farming activities.…”

The rapid-but from a low base-uptake of agricultural mechanization in Ethiopia: Patterns, implications, and challenges by Berhane, Guush, Dereje, Mekdim, Minten, Bart, Tamru, Seneshaw

“…Although further expansion of mechanization in the country is desired given the environmental and financial costs of holding oxen, and the higher yields linked with some forms of mechanization, it appears to be hampered by farm structures, particularly small farm sizes and consequent limits in scale; fragmented plots; crop diversity; physical constraints, such as the presence of stones, steep fields, and certain soil types; and economic and financial constraints, including limited access to foreign exchange and credit, and the still relatively low wages in less commercialized zones.…”
