英文文献摘要：
Women are taking over the Agriculture sector in sub-Saharan Africa and policies that enhance their empowerment in farming would have positive gains in enhancing food security and transforming lives. Adoption studies have identified gender as one of the factors that determine technology uptake, and this has been linked to women’s access to farming information or lack of it. Technology scaling up systems should utilize pathways that are compatible with the needs of rural women who have to juggle farming with other household chores. Unfortunately, there has been limited effort to evaluate the suitability of the information pathways used to specific gender. This study evaluates the appropriateness of field days with respect to gender of the participants. A total of 2,615 participants were interviewed out of 6,221 who attended field days in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. The determinants of level knowledge level gained and willingness to adopt was evaluated using an ordered probit and logit model. Our findings shows that majority of the participants were women (51.3%), middle aged (40-45 years) and with primary level education (54.1% women). The model results shows that women farmers understood more about push-pull (coefficient of ordered probit = -0.112) and were more willing to adopt push-pull (coefficient of logit = -0.367). Age, education, being a push-pull farmer, perception of Striga severity and having a mobile phone were also significant. Our findings demonstrate that field days are appropriate for training farmers especially women who are often disadvantaged in information access.

在撒哈拉以南非洲，妇女正在接管农业部门，加强妇女在农业方面的权力的政策将在加强粮食安全和改变生活方面产生积极的效果。收养研究已经确定，性别是决定技术吸收的因素之一，这与妇女获得或缺乏农业信息有关。技术扩大系统应利用符合农村妇女需要的途径，这些妇女必须兼顾农业和其他家务。不幸的是，在评估用于特定性别的信息途径的适宜性方面所作的努力有限。本研究根据参与者的性别来评估实地考察日的适宜性。在参加肯尼亚、乌干达和坦桑尼亚实地考察日的6221名参与者中，共有2 615人接受了采访。运用有序probit和logit模型评估了水平、知识水平和接受意愿的决定因素。我们的研究结果显示，大部分参与者是女性(51.3%)，中年(40-45岁)和小学教育水平(54.1%的女性)。模型结果表明，女性农民对推拉(ordered probit系数= -0.112)理解程度更高，更愿意采用推拉(logit系数= -0.367)。年龄、受教育程度、是一个推拉式农民、对Striga严重程度的认知以及拥有一部手机也很重要。我们的研究结果表明，田间日适合培训农民，特别是在信息获取方面往往处于劣势的妇女。
