摘要

这项研究调查了埃塞俄比亚奥罗米亚州东哈拉尔吉地区Kersa区的农民,以评估他们的适应性以及他们对小规模灌溉在提高应对气候变化能力方面的作用的看法。数据是从288个随机选择的家庭样本中收集的(130个采用小规模灌溉的家庭和158个未采用小规模农田灌溉的家庭)。家庭调查用于收集定量数据,定性数据通过焦点小组讨论和关键线人访谈收集。使用主成分分析法对数据进行分析,以生成家庭的恢复能力指数。分析显示,采用者在所有恢复力指标上都表现得更好,包括获得粮食和收入、资产、农业生产、稳定和适应能力。研究结果还表明,具有高抵御能力的家庭对气候变化的抵御能力更强。这些结果表明,小规模灌溉提高了对不规则天气模式的响应能力,通过最大限度地减少气候变化的影响,大大有助于提高农民的复原力。因此,政策制定者应适当关注减轻气候变化的影响和提高小规模农民的适应能力。

Evaluating farm household resilience and perceptions of the role of small-scale irrigation in improving adaptability to climate change stress: evidence from eastern Ethiopia
This study surveys farmers in the Kersa district, East Hararghe zone, Oromia regional state, Ethiopia, to assess their adaptability and their perceptions of the role of small-scale irrigation in improving resilience to climate change. Data were collected from a sample of 288 randomly selected households (130 adopters and 158 non-adopters of small-scale irrigation). A household survey was used to gather quantitative data, and qualitative data were collected through focus group discussions and key informant interviews. Data were analyzed using principal component analysis to generate the resilience capacity index of the households. Analysis revealed that adopters were better off on all indicators of resilience, including access to food and income, assets, agricultural production, stability, and adaptive capacity. The findings also suggest that households with high resilience are more resilient to climate change. These results suggest that small-scale irrigation increases responsiveness to irregular weather patterns, significantly contributing to increasing farmers' resilience by minimizing the impacts of climate change. Therefore, policymakers should pay due attention to mitigating the impacts of climate change and improving the adaptive capacity of small-scale farmers.
