摘要

通过培训需求评估审查了达沃工厂区改善农场做法和提高生产力的必要性。其目的是为其甘蔗农民制定一个设计良好、以需求为基础的培训计划。采用两阶段分层随机抽样方法,共抽取112名调查对象。采用结构合理的问卷,采用李克特量表和多元回归分析对数据进行分析。为甘蔗生产确定的培训需要领域包括化肥的施用/计算、土壤肥力管理、品种选择、收获前施肥和灌溉、管理疾病控制和设计杂草控制方案。还确定了关于糖的加工、甘蔗工业在国内和世界市场上的现状以及农场计划和预算的信息。对于其他作物生产,培训需求集中在养猪、玉米生产和家禽饲养方面。农民还需要接受产品质量、包装和营销方面的培训,为他们的生计生产醋和葡萄酒。相关分析表明,年龄与获得高产品种与农民表达的甘蔗生产培训需求呈正相关。针对年龄较大的农民进行培训可能更有效,因为他们似乎更容易接受技术,尽管由于甘蔗种植的继承,年轻农民也需要接受培训。该研究建议评估在SRA快速繁殖和分配方案下对达沃MDDC特别是苗圃农场的干预措施,特别是在HYV种子的可及性方面。它还建议SRA和Davao MDDC增加推广联系,开发培训模块,并根据农民表达的培训需求重新调整培训计划,以改善研究地区的农场实践和生产力。

Improving farm practices and productivity through training needs assessment of sugarcane farmers: the case of Davao Mill District, the Philippines
The need to improve the farm practices and productivity in the Davao mill district was examined through Training Need Assessment.  The aim is to develop a well-designed and need-based training program for its sugarcane farmers. A two-stage stratified random sampling technique was employed to select 112 respondents. A well-structured questionnaire was used and data were analyzed using Likert Scale and multiple regression analysis. The areas of training needs identified for sugarcane production were on the application/computation of chemical fertilizer, soil fertility management, selection of varieties, seizing fertilization and irrigation before harvesting, managing disease control and designing a weed control program. The information on the processing of sugar, the current situation of the sugarcane industry in the domestic and world markets, and farm plan and budgeting were also identified. For other crop production, the training needs were on swine, corn production and poultry raising. Farmers also need training on product quality and packaging and marketing for muscovado, vinegar and wine making for their source of livelihood. The relational analysis showed a positive and significant relationship between age and access to high yielding varieties with training needs expressed by the farmers on sugarcane production. Training could be more effective by targeting older farmers as they seemed to be more receptive to technology although young farmers also need to be trained due to succession in sugarcane farming. The study recommends to assess the interventions given to the Davao MDDC particularly the nursery farms under the Rapid Propagation and Distribution Program of SRA especially on the accessibility of HYV seeds. It also recommends for SRA and the Davao MDDC to increase extension contact and develop training modules and re-orient training schedules with training needs expressed by the farmers to improve the farm practices and productivity in the study area.
