Presented By: Kebebe Ergano

Event: ECHO East Africa Symposium II on Best Practices in Highland Areas (01.11.2016)

This presentation analyzes factors affecting technology adoption in smallholder dairy production
systems using a combination of frameworks and mixed methods: agricultural household models and agricultural innovation systems approach and a mix of quantitative and qualitative methods. Findings show that low adoption of technologies stems from farmers' limited resource endowments, lack of reliable supply chains for inputs and outputs and inadequate institutional and policy support to the livestock sector. Therefore, policy  interventions for dairy development need to be directed towards eliminating a broad range of policy, legal, regulatory and administrative obstacles deterring smallholders and agribusinesses from investing in agricultural technologies.
