摘要

关于信息和通信技术的使用对采用农林业技术的影响以及信息和通信技术的使用和采用农林业技术对农民福利的综合影响的研究明显不足。为了填补信息空白，本研究考察了信息和通信技术的使用对农林业技术采用的影响，以及它们对尼日利亚西南部农作物种植者福利的异质性影响。研究采用了内生处理泊松回归（ETPR）模型和无条件量化回归（UQR）模型来分析从 488 名受访者那里收集到的数据。结果表明，信息和通信技术的使用提高了农林业技术的采用率，促进了环境友好。此外，信息和通信技术的使用和农林技术的采用在统计上对农业收入和家庭粮食不安全获得量表（HFIAS）产生了异质性影响。确切地说，信息和通信技术的使用对最低分位数的农场收入影响最大，而农林技术的采用对最低分位数的家庭粮食不安全获得量表（HFIAS）影响最大。因此，促进种植农户使用信息和通信技术的政策应成为关心种植农户福利和提高农户农林技术采用水平的政策制定者的优先考虑事项。

ICTs Use, Agroforestry Technologies’ Adoption and Crop Farmers’ Welfare: An Empirical Evidence from Southwest, Nigeria

There is a glaring shortage of studies on the impact of ICTs use on the adoption of agroforestry technologies and combined effects of ICTs use and agroforestry technologies’ adoption on farmers’ welfare. To fill the information gap, this study examined the impact of ICTs use on agroforestry technologies’ adoption and their heterogenous impacts on crop farmers’ welfare in Southwest, Nigeria. Endogenous-treatment poisson regression (ETPR) model and unconditional quantile regression (UQR) model were used to analyse the data collected from 488 respondents. The results indicated that the use of ICTs improved the adoption of agroforestry technologies which facilitate friendly environment. Also, ICTs use and agroforestry technologies’ adoption statistically and heterogeneously influenced farm revenue and household food insecurity access scale (HFIAS). Precisely, ICTs use had the highest influence on farm revenue at the lowest quantile, while agroforestry technologies’ adoption had the highest effect on household food insecurity access scale (HFIAS) at the lowest quantile. Therefore, policies that promote crop farmers’ access to ICTs should be the priority of policy makers who are interested in the welfare of crop farmers and increased farmers’ level of agroforestry technologies’ adoption.
