Understanding adoption and impacts of conservation agriculture in Eastern and Southern Africa: A review por Ngoma, Hambulo, Angelsen, Arild, Jayne, Thomas S., Chapoto, Antony

“…A subnational focus is needed to identify economic conditions of different regions and agro-ecological zones and to test hypotheses derived from the framework in this paper and to propose the most appropriate CA packages for promotion. Our findings suggest that labor using variants of CA such as planting basins are more likely to be adopted than are capital using mechanized options in densely populated parts of Malawi, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe where labor is abundant, and presumably cheap, but capital is expensive. …”
