Abstract

Commercialized agriculture shows better avenues in diversifying the rural livelihoods. Floriculture industry is an avenue to initiate successful small scale enterprises in a conductive environment.  This paper explores the aspects in small scale floriculture industry to adapt strategies in rural development through indexing the success of floriculture small enterprises under eight dimensions. Both interviewer administrated questionnaire and in-depth interviews with key respondents were adapted in data collection. Findings indicate that average entrepreneurial success index of the sample is 0.57, meaning average success level and 38% were very successful. Diversification (0.78), profitability (0.68), social recognition (0.61) are the dimensions that have highest mean values and quality of supply or service (0.56), customer satisfaction (0.45) and employee satisfaction (0.27) had lower mean values. Middle age (34%) and women (64%) entrepreneurs’ engagement in the industry was high. Time spent on the enterprise and labour usage depends on whether the business is their primary or secondary income activity. Floriculture small scale enterprises have been identified as a good income avenue for middle aged women in rural areas. However, rural development strategies need to address the requirement of how to develop the management skills of rural entrepreneurs as well for the sustainability of their enterprises.

Abstract

This study assesses the effect of livelihood diversification and technology adoption on food security status among rice farming households in the Ogun State Nigeria. Farming households in Africa have increasingly sought means of escaping from the detrimental consequences of poverty by inclining to diversification of their activities; within and outside the farm sector. A multistage sampling technique was used to select 158 rice farmers. A well-structured questionnaire was used to collect data for the study. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Simpson Index, adoption index and logit regression model. Factors affecting food security of the rice farmers were Simpson Index of Diversification (γ1= 0.320, p= 5%), Technologies Adoption Index (γ2=1.019, p=5%), household size (γ5= -0.060, p= 10%), educational status of the farmers (γ6= 0.035 , p= 5%), farm size (γ7= 0.133, p= 5%) and access to credit (γ9= 0.405, p= 10%). It was recommended that rice farmers should be educated on modern technologies in rice production. Credit facilities should be made available for the rice farming household either by the government or private organizations to enhance farming activities, alleviate poverty and increase household food security.

Abstract

The interdependence of water, food and energy are widely recognized as important drivers of socioeconomic development. The objective of the study was to assess the impact of Shiroro Dam Project (SDP) on productivity and livelihood diversification of rural fisherfolks in Niger state, Nigeria. Primary data were collected from the fisherfolks with the aid of structured questionnaires. A multistage sampling procedure was used to select 363 fisherfolks from two LGAs, twelve villages and 1,210 sample frames. Two hundred and sixty (267) fisherfolks who are non-beneficiaries of SDP were also selected as counterfactual to examine the impact. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Tobit regression, Propensity Score Matching (PSM) and the Local Average Treatment Effect (LATE) models. Result revealed that fishery activities were the most important source of income (68.3%) among the fisherfolks. The coefficients of length of fishing gears (-0.400), capacity of outboard engine (-0.005), household size (0.008), credit accessed for fishery (0.052) and per capita expenditure (0.306) were statistically significant factors influencing the extent of livelihood diversification of Shiroro dam fisherfolks. There was statistically significant difference between the mean income of fisherfolks (₦56,119.06 per annum) who benefitted from SDP and counterfactual (₦37,876.80). Similarly, the results of impact of SDP on productivity of fisherfolks revealed that the treatment effect on the treated (ATT) increases productivity of the benefitted fisherfolks by 2.8273 (38.1%), that ATU had a significant and positive impact (0.1282) on productivity, and the average effect of the treatment (ATE) for SDP fisherfolks has a positive difference of 0.6654 compared to the treated category. Fisherfolks should form a formidable social organization to benefit from economy of bulk purchase of farm inputs especially fishing gears and outboard engine, farm advisory services, increased access to credit, and access to other modern fishing techniques.

Abstract

One way to realize the targeted 100 thousand metric tons of dried cocoa beans by the Philippines on year 2022 is the massive establishment of new cacao plantations. With the financial support through the grant-in-aid program of the Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources, Research and Development, Central Mindanao University reached-out to neighboring communities and helped the people in Bukidnon, Philippines to establish new cacao plantations using the high-yielding clones recommended by the National Seed Industry Council. A total of 39 project-cooperators were involved and were provided with farm inputs as well as seminars and trainings on cacao production through the “Science and Technology Community-Based Farm (STCBF) for a Sustainable Cacao Production in Bukidnon” project. However, it cannot be denied that characters of project-cooperators have great influence on the performance of cacao plantation. This study was undertaken to determine the influence of prior learnings (previous seminars and trainings on cacao production), regularity of farm visit, involvement in farm hands-on activities and level of technology adoption of project-cooperators on the performance of established cacao plantation. Characters of project-cooperators with regard to farm management were documented during the farm monitoring and evaluation conducted by our team. Results revealed that project-cooperators who visited their farm regularly have better cacao plantation performance than those of project-cooperators who visited their farm occasionally. Apparently, cacao plantation performed better if project-cooperators were highly receptive to transferred technology. These findings can be used as guide to agricultural extension workers in Bukidnon, Philippines in the selection of project-cooperators or project beneficiaries with regard to establishment of cacao plantations.

Abstract

The extent of degraded and impoverished lands suitable for agriculture production in Nigeria is highly uncertain and cannot be established without due consideration of current land use and land tenure. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of land degradation on smallholder farmers’ food security and poverty status nexus livelihood diversification in north central Nigeria. Primary data with the aid of structured questionnaire was employed to collect the relevant data. A multistage random farming household survey resulted in five Local Government Areas, eleven villages, 330 farmers which were filtered to 142 and 188 land graded farmers (LDF) and non-degraded farmers (NDF) respectively. Descriptive statistics, land degradation perception index, food security and poverty indices, dichotomous regression models were used to achieve the aims of the study. The result indicates that 86.97% of the sampled farmers identified erosion as the most severe land degradation with perception index of 4.2. Only 12.0% of LDF were food secured while 40.0% of NDF were food secured. The poverty status revealed that only 7.04% of LDF fall under the threshold of 0.00-20.00 category implying non-poor while 46.3% of NDF fall under the threshold. The results showed that the factors that affected food security and poverty status of LDF had variation from those that affected NDF and where it was the same, not by the same magnitude and direction. The average livelihood security composite index of LDF and NDF were 0.27 and 0.64 respectively implying that NDF had a low diversification as value of one means no diversification. The factors influencing livelihood diversification to non-farm activities by LDF and NDF also differs in magnitudes, coefficients and directions. The results revealed that intercropping and mixed cropping are the most common strategy adopted by farmers in mitigating land degradation with mean index of 4.82.

Abstract

The study was commenced with the general objective of urban Agriculture commercialization specifically Dairy Product in Mekelle city, Tigrai Ethiopia .100 households were selected using simple random sampling method. Data were collected using formal survey which is questionnaire. The data collected were processed using both descriptive and two stage least square method/ Multiple regression econometric models specifically logit model. The binary Dairy Product model results revealed that Extent of education of the household head, family size, distance to the nearest market center, and total Dairy Product owned played significant role in commercialization decision. The second-step selection estimation indicated that Extent of education of the household head, visit by extension agents, total dairy products owned and owned land size significantly affected Extent of commercialization measures the fraction of sales to the total value of dairy products owned by the household. The researchers recommend that any stakeholder,   institutions like agricultural institute , government with its extension workers and other development institutions and partners should give due emphasis on capacity building through formal and informal ways, which increases the owner of the Dairy Product a bargaining power in the market by getting information related price, demand and supply , production and management technologies Besides, facilitate Dairy Product market outlets near to them in the region and creating an interface with other regions, which minimize operation and increment efficiency. Finally, stakeholders should give emphasis to the major challenges of market infrastructure, shortage in pasture lands and disease for they could create a bottleneck effect in the remedy and food of the society positively and negatively measuring their implementation performance.

Abstract

Market integration is one indicator of marketing efficiency, especially price efficiency, which is a measure that shows the extent to which price changes that occur in the reference market will cause changes that occur in market followers. The difference in prices received by farmers, wholesalers, and retailers in Indonesia in 2011-2015 has increased and decreased by an unequal amount, which means that price changes among marketing agents are not balanced. Agribusiness market participants currently do not use market communication information system services on time so that it will cause information asymmetry and indicate that the market is not integrated. This study analyzes market integration based on the relationship between corn prices at the level of producers, wholesalers, and retailers. The analytical methods used are Engle-Granger cointegration, Error Corection Model (ECM), and Granger Causality Test. The results show that the corn market between producers and wholesalers, between wholesalers and retailers, and between producers and retailers has been integrated in the long and short term. Market information needs to be improved so that market integration is stronger.

Abstract

Food is a basic need that must be fulfilled by every citizen / community and is the right of every resident to fulfill his food needs. So it is natural that many countries whose governments give considerable attention to food-related problems both in terms of demand and supply. Research on demand for food commodities in Tulungagung Regency uses data from SUSENAS (National Socio-Economic Survey) in 2018 obtained from the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics. The model used in this study is the AIDS (Almost Ideal Demand System) model with the SUR (Seemingly Unrelated Regression) method. The results showed that the factors that influenced the demand for food commodities were rice prices, corn prices, soybean prices, mungbean prices, peanut prices for cassava prices, sweet potato prices, and total household expenditure. Price elasticity is elastic for food commodities (rice, corn, green beans, peanuts, cassava and sweet potatoes). Cross elasticity has a substitution relationship in each commodity and is also complementary in each commodity. Expenditure elasticity shows that all food commodities are normal goods.
