摘要

本研究评估了影响恩布县旱地再生农业技术吸收的社会经济因素。对400户农户进行半结构化问卷调查。采用多变量概率模型(MVP)和百分比对数据进行分析。研究结果表明，农业经验、农场规模、主要职业、非农活动、年龄、性别、婚姻状况和教育水平等社会经济因素影响了各种再生农业技术的采用。政府和其他发明者在作出决定和制定政策以支持农业创新的传播和吸收时应考虑到这些因素。

Socioeconomic Factors Influencing Uptake of Regenerative Agriculture Technologies in the Dry-lands of Embu County, Kenya

This study evaluated socioeconomic factors influencing the uptake of regenerative agriculture technologies in the dry lands of Embu County. Semi-structured questionnaires were administered to 400 farm households. Multivariate Probit model (MVP) and percentage were used to analyse the data. The findings of the study indicate that several socioeconomic factors including farming experience, farm size, main occupation, off-farm activities, age, gender, marital status and education level influenced the uptake of various regenerative agriculture technologies. Government and other inventors should take these factors into consideration while making decisions and formulating policies to support the dissemination and uptake of agricultural innovations.
