Perceived challenges and determinants of farmers' intentions to adopt digital tools and services: Insights from Ghana

Canadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, Volume 70, Issue 3, Autumn / automne 2026.
Abstract Digitalization is increasingly promoted as a pathway for transforming smallholder agriculture in sub‐Saharan Africa; however, the adoption of digital farming tools and advisory services remains uneven. Drawing on cross‐sectional survey data from 1,565 smallholder farmers in Northern Ghana, this study examined the factors influencing farmers ...

Sugar provisioning increases parasitoid numbers in agroecosystems but may not reduce pest densities: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.
Our findings demonstrate that providing sugar sources reliably supports parasitoid populations and parasitism rate but does not systematically translate into improved pest suppression or yield gains. These results suggest that, for economic and practical reasons, sugar inputs at the edge of cultivated fields should be favoured.

Farmer‐Led Strategies for Water Conservation in the Urmia Lake Basin, Iran

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 2, Page 840-855, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the urgent issues of water scarcity and limited farmer livelihoods in the Urmia Lake basin. To address these challenges, we apply the Governance, Autonomy, Integration, and Needs orientation (GAIN) methodology. Our participatory approach revealed that farmers prioritised actionable measures for water management, yield ...

Assessing the Sustainability of Community‐Managed Irrigation Systems Using Multicriteria Analysis and Sustainability Indicators in Northern Ethiopia: A Holistic Approach

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 1, Page 330-343, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Reservoir‐based irrigation schemes (RBISs) have been developed to minimize the adverse effects of moisture stress and improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in semi‐arid regions. However, many RBISs perform below expectations. A multistage expert elicitation approach and an indicator‐based Sustainability Assessment of Food and ...

Can Solar‐Powered Irrigation Systems Naturally Meet Crop Water Requirements? Proof of Concept From a Case Study in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 1423-1435, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Irrigation scheduling is crucial for ensuring precise water delivery to crops. However, in many sub‐Saharan African irrigation schemes, water is applied without considering crop water needs, resulting in low crop water productivity and low yields. Solar‐powered irrigation systems can automatically meet these needs by utilizing solar radiation,
