Livestock Farmers’ Intentions to Adopt Climate-Smart Agricultural Practices in Kenya’s Arid and Semi-Arid Lands: What Role Do Behavioural Factors Play?
Survey analysis shows attitudes and perceived behavioural control predict CSA adoption in Kenyan pastoralists, suggesting targeted interventions may enhance resilience.
Key Points
Attitudes and perceived behavioural control are significant predictors of intention to adopt CSA practices among farmers.
Increased exposure to demonstration farms can positively influence farmers' attitudes towards CSA adoption.
Ordered probit regression analysis revealed that perceived behavioural control was the most influential predictor.
Targeted awareness-raising initiatives should focus on building confidence among pastoral communities for better adoption rates.
