Smallholder dairying in Kenya is mainly concentrated in the central and western parts of the country, where the highland climate and proximity to urban markets are favourable. These farmers produce over 70 percent of the total marketed milk (Omiti et al., 1993), using an average of two cows (most...

Research aimed at developing appropriate interventions to assist smallholder dairy producers requires a clear understanding of the overall systems environment. Smallholder dairy systems are shaped by production characteristics and technologies, but also by farm/household resource endowments and t...

Traditional studies of agricultural technology adoption have long been constrained by a limited ability to include spatially-differentiated data. Typically, crude proxies or location dummy variables are used to approximate spatial effects. GIS tools, however, now allow spatially explicit data t...
