摘要

在小农户奶制品系统中采用栽培牧草为提高牲畜生产力提供了一种具有成本效益的方法。肯尼亚和埃塞俄比亚政府都表示有雄心在其乳制品行业增加牧草的使用;然而,政策未能产生广泛的效果。现有的研究倾向于关注当地采用饲料的障碍,而不是更广泛的创新环境。为了填补这一文献空白,本研究使用Tobit模型分析了2015年肯尼亚和埃塞俄比亚的村级数据。埃塞俄比亚的牛奶购买者和饲料强度之间存在一种潜在的重要关系,这一关系以前在文献中没有得到解决。由于埃塞俄比亚政府主导着饲料行业,这项研究的结果表明,私人牛奶买家可能会提供另一种信息来源。在肯尼亚的背景下,本文发现非正式机构和农民对农民的信息传递在收养决策中很重要,在设计推广策略时应予以考虑。

An innovation systems approach to understanding forage adoption intensity in the dairy systems of Kenya and Ethiopia
The adoption of cultivated forages in smallholder dairy systems offers a cost-effective way to increase the productivity of livestock. The Kenyan and Ethiopian governments have both stated an ambition to increase the use of forages in their dairy sectors; however, policies have failed to produce widespread results. Existing research tends to focus on local barriers to forage adoption and not the wider innovation environment. To fill this literature gap, this study uses a Tobit model to analyse village-level data from Kenya and Ethiopia in 2015. A potentially important relationship between milk buyers and forage intensity in Ethiopia, which has not previously been addressed in the literature, is identified. As the Ethiopian government dominates the forage sector, the results of this study indicate that private milk buyers may offer an alternative source of information. In the Kenyan context, this paper finds that informal institutions and farmer-to-farmer information transmission are important in adoption decisions and should be considered when designing extension strategies.
