ما هو تأثير تطبيق الممارسات الزراعية الذكية مناخياً على دخل الأسرة الريفية؟ دليل من نيجيريا

نوع المقالة : بحث

الملخص
أثبتت الدراسات الحديثة أهمية تبني ممارسات الزراعة الذكية مناخيا للحد من غازات الاحتباس الحراري (GHGs) ، ومكافحة تغير المناخ ، وتعزيز الأمن الغذائي ورفاهية المزارعين. ومع ذلك ، كان هناك عدد قليل من الدراسات التي فحصت التأثير السببي لممارسات الزراعة الذكية مناخيا على دخل الأسرة. تقيِّم هذه الورقة تأثير تبني ممارسات الزراعة الذكية مناخياً على دخل الأسر الزراعية في شمال نيجيريا. تتكون عينتنا من بيانات مقطعية لـ 480 (160 متبنيًا و 320 من غير المتبنين لـ CSA) أسرة زراعية ريفية تم اختيارها باستخدام تجربة التحكم العشوائية (RCT) من ثلاث ولايات شمالية في نيجيريا. استخدمت هذه الدراسة مطابقة درجة الميل (PSM) لتحديد التأثير السببي لاعتماد CSA على دخل الأسرة بينما تم استخدام تعديل الانحدار المرجح العكسي (IPWRA) للتحكم في تحيز الاختيار الذي قد ينشأ من كل من العوامل المرصودة وغير المرصودة. وجدنا أن العمر ، والتعليم ، وحجم المزرعة ، والوصول إلى الإرشاد ، وعضوية الجمعيات ، والوصول إلى المعلومات المناخية هي إيجابية وذات دلالة إحصائية تؤثر على تبني ممارسات الزراعة الذكية مناخيا بين الأسر الزراعية. كشفت النتائج التجريبية أن التبني يؤثر بشكل كبير على دخل الأسر الزراعية عبر المقدرين المستخدمين. وهذا يسلط الضوء على أهمية تعزيز تبني ممارسات الزراعة الذكية مناخيا بين الأسر الزراعية الريفية. تؤكد النتائج التي توصلنا إليها أنه ينبغي تعزيز حملة التنوير حول ممارسات الزراعة الذكية مناخياً ، والوصول إلى معلومات الإرشاد والمناخ ، وتعليم الأسر الزراعية ، وحجم الأراضي الزراعية المزروعة ، وتكوين المجموعات من أجل توسيع نطاق اعتمادها وزيادة دخل الأسر.
