本研究は、ガーナの半乾燥地域(アッパーウエスト州)の小規模農家400人を対象に、気候スマート農業(CSA)の採用要因をロジスティック回帰で分析した。収量向上やコスト削減といった動機、農業普及サービスや訓練へのアクセス、教育が採用を有意に促進する一方、26〜45歳の農家は採用しにくいことが示された。政策・NGOへの支援拡大と教育の重要性を提言している。
English
This study analyzes factors influencing adoption of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) among 400 smallholder farmers in semi-arid Ghana using logistic regression. Motivation (yield, cost), access to extension services and training, and formal education significantly increase adoption, while farmers aged 26-45 are less likely to adopt. Calls for enhanced support and education.

日本のGX文脈において
日本のGX文脈では、農業分野の適応策としてCSAは関連するが、日本の政策(みどりの食料システム戦略)とは焦点が異なる。日本企業のサプライチェーンにおける途上国農業の気候リスク理解に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
Contributes to global literature on climate-smart agriculture adoption, relevant for climate adaptation and food security in developing regions. Provides empirical evidence for policy design in semi-arid contexts, complementing global adaptation and resilience frameworks.

📄 Abstract(原文)
With the increasing recognition of climate change threats to agricultural productivity and food security, it is crucial to explore farming practices that increase productivity, adapt to the effects of global climate change, while lowering greenhouse gas emissions. This study investigates the factors that influence the adoption of climate-smart agricultural (CSA) practices among smallholder farmers in semi-arid Ghana, specifically, the Upper West Region (UWR) of Ghana. The study surveyed 400 smallholder farmers from eleven (11) Communities and employed stratified random sampling, and a logistic regression model for data analysis. The results revealed that knowledge of CSA benefits or motivation factors such as improved crop yields (OR=10.356; p < 0. 001), reduced input cost (OR=4.855; p < 0.05), influenced the decision of smallholder farmers to adopt CSA practices. Also, availability of support systems such as access to agricultural extension services (OR=10.358; p < 0.001) and CSA training (OR=4.374; p < 0.05) were significantly associated with the adoption of CSA practices. The findings also shows that demographic factors shape the adoption of CSA practices. Farmers within the ages of 26-45 were less likely to adopt CSA practices (OR = 0.050; p < 0. 05), while farmers with formal education were more likely to adopt CSA practices (OR = 9.262; p < 0.001) after controlling for support system variables. Based on the findings, improved crop yields, resilience, reduced input, support from Agricultural Extension Agents (AEAs), financial support, training, and government policies are factors that influence CSA adoption among smallholder farmers in the study area. The study calls for policymakers and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to enhance financial support systems and extension services to farmers, as well as provide more training on CSA. Government policies should also be focused on education and sensitization to upscale the adoption of CSA practices for its maximum benefits.
