📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本の農業分野での再生可能エネルギー導入（営農型太陽光発電など）において、コミュニティ組織の役割を考慮する際の参考となる。ただしエチオピア農村部の文脈であり、直接適用には注意が必要。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes global evidence on social and institutional drivers of renewable energy adoption in agriculture, relevant for designing community-based clean energy programs in developing regions. Less directly applicable to industrialized contexts but offers methodological insights.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Ethiopia's reliance on diesel‐powered irrigation compromises the economic viability and environmental sustainability of small‐scale irrigation because of rising fuel costs, unstable supply and greenhouse gas emissions. Solar‐powered irrigation pumps provide an energy‐efficient alternative; however, adoption among smallholder farmers remains limited. This study examines how community‐level organisational capacity and individual behavioural factors shape farmers' intentions to adopt solar‐powered irrigation systems. Drawing on collective efficacy and the Theory of Planned Behaviour, the study analyses survey data from 448 farm households in drought‐prone regions of Ethiopia using covariance‐based structural equation modelling and logistic regression. Collective efficacy is a strong predictor of adoption intention, both directly and indirectly through attitudes, perceived behavioural control and subjective norms. Subjective norms show the strongest mediating effect, underscoring the role of social endorsement and peer influence in shaping adoption intentions. Education, income and farm size emerge as significant socioeconomic correlates of adoption intention. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening local institutions, such as Idir, Mahber and Debo, to support collective financing, peer learning and cooperative operation of solar irrigation systems. The study demonstrates that community‐level organisational capacity is critical for understanding renewable energy adoption in smallholder irrigation systems and offers insights for promoting sustainable, low‐emission irrigation transitions.
