Replication Data for: Mapping Adoption of ISFM Practices Study - The Case of Kenya, Rwanda & Zambia

Studies have shown that the uptake of ISFM remains low – largely because it is a new paradigm and its promotion by extension service providers is limited. Nkonya et al (2016) observed that only 6% of farmers use ISFM compared to 19% and 25% for inorganic fertilizer and organic inputs respectively. This study was done in three case study countries: Kenya, Rwanda and Zambia using both primary and secondary data collected to document adoption of ISFM. To test and validate new tools for documenting adoption of agricultural technologies, a mobile phone survey was conducted only in Rwanda due to budget constraints. The results are compared with data collected using traditional data collection methods – i.e., in-person household survey – in which an enumerator interviews farmers in person. Secondary data will be used to document adoption of ISFM in Kenya and Zambia and to determine impact of ISFM and drivers of its adoption. The specific objectives of this study are to:  Determine adoption rate of ISFM in Kenya, Rwanda and Zambia  Design methodological approaches for determining adoption rate of innovations  Analyze drivers of adoption of ISFM in the case study countries;  Analyze impact of ISFM on income and sustainable land management practices
