Exploring Perception Disparities in Agricultural Risk Management Process Training: An Analysis of Skill Transfer Perspectives Between Supervisors and Trainees
This study explores the comprehensive examination of Agricultural Risk Management (ARM) process skill transfer dynamics between supervisors and trainees. The main points encompass understanding the details of the ARM process and identifying perceptual discrepancies in rating the level of transfer between trainees and supervisors. The investigation aims to contribute valuable insights into refining ARM process dissemination strategies for improved agricultural resilience. Employing a cross-sectional mixed-method approach, this research utilized independent t-tests for quantitative data analysis, facilitated by SPSS software. Furthermore, qualitative data underwent meticulous thematic content analysis conducted through Atlas.ti. The participant demographic characteristics, showcasing a balanced gender distribution among trainees and supervisors, highlighted the cohort's diverse educational backgrounds and qualifications. Trainees exhibited varying educational levels, while supervisors mainly possess advanced degrees, signalling their potential sway in mentoring dynamics. The study uncovered notable gaps within the ARM process framework, notably the absence of comprehensive risk assessment, diversified strategies, formal monitoring mechanisms, and the incorporation of behavioural and financial elements. Emphasizing collaboration and proactive approaches toward addressing long-term risks, particularly climate change adaptation, emerged as pivotal components. Significantly, the study revealed marked differences in perceptions between supervisors and trainees regarding ARM skill transfer, accentuating the necessity for tailor-made training initiatives. The implications drawn from this study underline the critical necessity for customized training modules that consider the distinct needs and perceptions of supervisors and trainees. Furthermore, fostering enhanced collaboration and advocating for a comprehensive approach to mitigating long-term agricultural risks, notably the impacts of climate change, emerge as imperative strategies. These implications carry profound significance in refining risk management practices, bolstering agricultural resilience and ensuring sustainable agricultural practices.
期刊介绍:
Increasing international competition has led governments and corporations to focus on ways of improving national and corporate economic performance. The effective use of human resources is seen as a prerequisite, and the training and development of employees as paramount. The growth of training and development as an academic subject reflects its growth in practice. The International Journal of Training and Development is an international forum for the reporting of high-quality, original, empirical research. Multidisciplinary, international and comparative, the journal publishes research which ranges from the theoretical, conceptual and methodological to more policy-oriented types of work. The scope of the Journal is training and development, broadly defined. This includes: The determinants of training specifying and testing the explanatory variables which may be related to training identifying and analysing specific factors which give rise to a need for training and development as well as the processes by which those needs become defined, for example, training needs analysis the need for performance improvement the training and development implications of various performance improvement techniques, such as appraisal and assessment the analysis of competence Training and development practice the design, development and delivery of training the learning and development process itself competency-based approaches evaluation: the relationship between training and individual, corporate and macroeconomic performance Policy and strategy organisational aspects of training and development public policy issues questions of infrastructure issues relating to the training and development profession The Journal’s scope encompasses both corporate and public policy analysis. International and comparative work is particularly welcome, as is research which embraces emerging issues and developments.
