摘要

进入市场是一项重要的战略,可以帮助小农摆脱贫困。通过农民团体采取集体行动已被确定为改善农民参与市场的一项战略。本研究分析了肯尼亚鳄梨生产和销售中集体行动的参与和参与强度的决定因素。小组参与和强度建模为二元选择决策,并使用logit模型进行分析。对肯尼亚鳄梨产区的301名农民进行了采访。结果表明,年龄、教育程度、性别和对知识和改进技术的认知影响农民参与群体活动的决定。职业、居住面积和农民对知识和改进技术使用的看法以及经济利益对参与强度有显著影响。我们的结论是,通过培训、讲习班和研讨会对农民进行教育是至关重要的。

Determinants of participation and intensity of participation in collective action: evidence from smallholder avocado farmers in Kenya
Access to markets is one important strategy which can assist smallholder farmers to move out of poverty. Collective action through farmers' groups has been identified as a strategy to improve the participation of farmers in markets. This study analyzes the determinants of participation and intensity of participation of collective action in production and marketing of avocado in Kenya. Group participation and the intensity were modelled as a binary choice decision and analyzed using logit models. Interviews were conducted with 301 farmers in avocado production zones in Kenya. The result showed that age, education, gender and perceptions on knowledge and improved technology influence farmers' decision to participate in group activities. Occupation, area of residence and farmers' perception on knowledge and improved technology use, and economic benefits had a significant influence on the intensity of participation. We conclude that it is crucial to educate farmers through trainings, workshops and seminars be...
