An analysis of secondary data from the National Panel Survey in Tanzania revealed physical, socioeconomic, and institutional factors influencing the adoption of soil conservation technologies among small-scale maize farmers. Findings revealed, for example, only 13.9 percent of those had adopted soil conservation technology. This was cited as small, compared with other countries.
Evidence from a longitudinal study stuggests that many agricultural college students lack opinions on soil and water conservation issues. The data also sugges that encounters with conservation issues in the classroom and elsewhere encourage students, especially those with less direct agricultural experience, to learn about and form opinions on conservation.
