摘要

茶业专家强调,有选择性的人工采摘是保持茶叶质量和茶树健康的最佳方式。然而,茶园倾向于采用机械采摘,以克服劳动力短缺和采摘成本问题。但是,机械采摘的采用率仍然很低,这就需要进一步的调查。本研究的目的是以个案研究为研究策略,调查茶园管理者对采用机械采摘的影响因素的关注。研究结果表明,作为驱动因素出现的大多数决定因素与采用理论中定义的潜在构造相一致。主要的驱动因素包括员工的态度、促进、持续监测、对妇女的培训以及通过定期实践培养技能。采用理论无法解释的组织因素被分离出来。研究结果得出结论,多维因素已成为驱动力,这对任何研究实际应用的人都会有所帮助。

Drivers of Adoption: Mechanical Harvesting in the Corporate Sector Tea Plantations in Sri Lanka
Tea industry experts emphasize that selective manual harvesting is the best way to maintain leaf quality while preserving tea plant health. However, tea plantations tend to adopt mechanical harvesting to overcome labour shortages and harvesting costs. But the adoption of mechanical harvesting is still low, prompting further investigations. The purpose of this study is to investigate tea plantation managers’ concerns about the factors influencing mechanical harvesting adoption based on a case study as the research strategy. The results demonstrated that the majority of determinants that emerged, as drivers are consistent with the latent constructs, defined in adoption theories. Key drivers are employees’ attitudes, facilitation, continuous monitoring, training of women and skill development through regular practice. The organizational factors that cannot be explained through adoption theories were isolated. The findings concluded that multi-dimensional factors have emerged as the driving force, which will be useful to anyone looking into the real application.

期刊介绍: Millennial Asia: An International Journal of Asian Studies is a multidisciplinary, refereed biannual journal of the Association of Asia Scholars (AAS)–an association of the alumni of the Asian Scholarship Foundation (ASF). It aims to encourage multifaceted, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research on Asia, in order to understand its fast changing context as a growth pole of global economy. By providing a forum for Asian scholars situated globally, it promotes dialogue between the global academic community, civil society and policy makers on Asian issues. The journal examines Asia on a regional and comparative basis, emphasizing patterns and tendencies that go beyond national borders and are globally relevant. Modern and contemporary Asia has witnessed dynamic transformations in cultures, societies, economies and political institutions, among others. It confronts issues of collective identity formation, ecological crisis, rapid economic change and resurgence of religion and communal identifies while embracing globalization. An analysis of past experiences can help produce a deeper understanding of contemporary change. In particular, the journal is interested in locating contemporary changes within a historical perspective, through the use of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches. This way, it hopes to promote comparative studies involving Asia’s various regions. The journal brings out both thematic and general issues and the thrust areas are: Asian integration, Asian economies, sociology, culture, politics, governance, security, development issues, arts and literature and any other such issue as the editorial board may deem fit. The core fields include development encompassing agriculture, industry, regional trade, social sectors like health and education and development policy across the region and in specific countries in a comparative perspective.
