Household Dynamics in Adoption of Climate Resilient Agricultural Technologies...Daniel K. Kangogo
Countries in sub-Saharan Africa are particularly vulnerable to climate change, given their limited capacity to adapt. As such, climate smart agriculture through adoption of resilient agricultural practices technologies has become a topical issue in the recent development policy agenda. This paper examines the influence of household dynamics on adoption of resilient agricultural technologies and subsequently the effect on household resilience using primary data collected from 300 households in Machakos and Makueni counties of semi-arid Kenya. The study uses the household type as the gender identifier, however, we recognize that female-headed households are not a homogenous group and hence we disaggregate the female-headed households into households managed by women when the husband is not physically present i.e. working away from home (de facto female-headed) and households managed by single, widowed, divorced, or separated women (de jure female-headed). Multivariate probit model and ordered logit models were used to model simultaneous adoption decisions by farm households facing multiple resilient technologies, which can be adopted singly or in different combinations. The analysis reveal that there exist a significant correlation between resilient agricultural technologies, implying that the adoptions of resilient technologies are interrelated. The results further establish that household type is a critical factor determining adoption behaviour and consequently the household level of resilience. Disaggregating the female-headed households, we find that de facto female-headed households are more likely to adopt multiple resilient technologies and become relatively resilient compared to other household types. From the findings, policies and interventions grounded on a sound understanding of the capacities and complexities of different household types, interrelationship between technologies and organising farmers into groups have the potential to influence adoption of resilient agricultural technologies and improve their resilience to climatic shocks.
