This study examined the influence of extension methods on the adoption of agroforestry practices in Zambia. The researchers collected data through surveys of 388 smallholder farmers across four districts. Their analysis found that over 90% of farmers were aware of agroforestry but trialing and adoption rates remained low. Farm demonstration plots and farmer-to-farmer exchanges were the most effective extension approaches for increasing adoption. The researchers concluded that more consistent extension efforts, a unified training method, and partner training could help realize the benefits of agroforestry for smallholder farmers.
