Mismatch between soil nutrient requirements and fertilizer applications: Implications for yield responses in Ethiopia
Lack of accurate information about soil nutrient requirements coupled with limited access to appropriate fertilizers could lead to mismatch between soil nutrient requirements and fertilizer applications. Such anomalies and mismatches are likely to have important implications for agricultural productivity. In this paper we use experimental (spectral soil analysis) data from Ethiopia to examine farmers’ response […] Source: IFPRI Ethiopia: Ethiopia Strategy Support Program

Incentivising and retaining public servants in remote areas: A discrete choice experiment with agricultural extension agents in Ethiopia
Increased deployment of agricultural extension agents (EAs) in rural areas is recommended to spur agricultural productivity and mitigate spatial imbalances in welfare. However, high turnover and low motivation levels of EAs in remote areas pose challenges for equitable service provision and, in some cases, exacerbate geographical welfare disparities. We assess the effectiveness of selected potential […] Source: IFPRI Ethiopia: Ethiopia Strategy Support Program
