摘要

目的玉米和水稻是加纳的两大主要作物。加纳对玉米和水稻的需求超过了生产水平,为农民增加产量创造了赤字。农民从不同的供应渠道采购经过认证的种子,以提高作物产量。这项研究评估了经认证的玉米和水稻种子供应渠道的有效性。这项研究还考察了影响小农户从确定的供应渠道采购种子的因素。设计/方法/方法多阶段抽样用于收集小农户的数据。共采访了360名农民进行分析。多元probit模型用于估计认证种子供应渠道的主要驱动因素。调查结果显示,农民使用特定供应渠道认证种子的决定取决于家庭规模、耕种年限、推广联系、与最近市场的距离、与地区首府的距离、获得信贷的机会和农场规模。研究限制/影响从加纳国家种子贸易商协会、研究机构和食品和农业部采购认证种子比投入经销商、公开市场和家人朋友更有效。原创性/价值这项研究是同类研究中的一项,着眼于认证种子采购网点的供应网点的有效性。

Effectiveness of certified maize and rice seeds supply outlets in Northern region: what influences smallholder farmers' decision?
PurposeMaize and rice constitute the two major staple crops in Ghana. The demand for maize and rice outstrips production levels in Ghana, creating deficits for farmers to capitalize on to increase yield. Farmers procure certified seeds from different supply outlets to improve crop yield. This study assessed the effectiveness of supply outlets of certified maize and rice seeds. This study also examined factors that influence smallholder farmers' decisions in sourcing seed from the identified supply outlets.Design/methodology/approachMulti-stage sampling was used to collect data from smallholder farmers. A total of 360 farmers were interviewed for the analysis. The multivariate probit model was used to estimate the main drivers of the supply outlets of certified seeds.FindingsThe findings revealed that farmers' decisions to use certified seeds from a particular supply outlet are contingent on household size, years of farming, extension contacts, distance to the nearest market, distance to the district capital, access to credit and farm size.Research limitations/implicationsSourcing certified seeds from National Seed Traders Association of Ghana, Research Institutions and Ministry of Food and Agriculture is more effective than input dealers, open market and family and friends.Originality/valueThis study is one of its kind that looked at how effective are the supply outlets of certified seed purchasing outlets.
