• W2016392120 abstract "Striga and cereal stemborers are major constraints to cereal production in sub-Saharan Africa causing serious food security concerns. The International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (ICIPE) and partners have developed a novel integrated management system called the ‘push–pull’ technology (PPT) in mitigation. This involves inter-cropping maize with a stemborer moth-repellent forage legume, silverleaf desmodium (push), and planting an attractive trap crop, Napier grass (pull), around the intercrop. Additionally, chemicals produced from desmodium roots inhibit Striga. We evaluated farmers’ perceptions of the pests, PPT attributes and factors influencing the likelihood of its adoption in 15 districts in western Kenya. A random sample of 923 farmers, with 478 having adopted the technology (practicing) and 445 not yet adopted but attending PPT field days (visiting) were interviewed. The practicing farmers cited both Striga and stemborers as major maize production constraints, alongside other constraints, as the main motivations for adoption of PPT. Reduced infestation by the pests, improvement in soil fertility, increase in maize grain yields, improved fodder and milk productivity were cited as main benefits of PPT. Similarly, the field day visiting farmers rated PPT as a more superior technology compared to their own maize production practices. Farmer's age, household headship by female farmers, technology attributes and exposure to a variety of extension methods significantly influenced likelihood of PPT adoption. Effective dissemination pathways are needed to provide farmers with appropriate information for evaluating potential benefits and tradeoffs of such a management-intensive technology. Further research is needed to understand how PPT contributes to farmers’ livelihood improvement and how the efficacy of different dissemination pathways in PPT technology transfer influences its adoption." @default.
