Tobit Regression Analysis

This study compared the knowledge levels between adaptors and non-adaptors of sustainable land-use management system in Matalom, Leyte, investigate the influence of farrners’ knowledge and other factors on the extent of adoption of technologies, and identify implications that may enhance technology adoption. The sustainable land-use management systems considered in this study included contour hedgerow and agroforestry technologies. The adoptors of sustainable land-use management systems have significantly higher knowledge than the non-adoptors. Their knowledge is significantly and positively affected by their level of education, attendance to related trainings, and contact with extension agents. Results of the Tobit regression analysis showed that the extent of adoption of sustainable land-use management system in the study area is significantly and positively influenced by farmers’ knowledge and other factors such as access to credit and membership in alayon (labor-sharing group)

AbstractThe updated Slovak National Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 is a key document in the field of biodiversity protection, and assessment together with mapping of the value of different ecosystem services is one of its most important objectives. This study applies the first non-monetary assessment and pilot mapping of agroecosystem services in the Slovak Republic at seven model sites located in the main climatic areas and estimates the agroecosystem services potential of Slovakia as a rural country with a transformed multi-criteria approach used at national level. It suggests that the distribution of the value of agroecosystem services is geographically different probably due to climatic conditions, slope and soil texture. Our assessment provides a suitable basis for further investigation of agroecosystem services and contributes to optimizing sustainable land use management in Slovakia.
