Estimating the impact of inorganic fertilizer adoption on sesame productivity: evidence from Humera, Tigray, Ethiopia

Abstract: The major challenge in low-income countries is poor soil fertility that influences land productivity which results in food insecurity and poverty. To revert this inorganic fertilizer has been introduced in these countries to improve land productivity. However, how impactful is the application of this inorganic fertilizer towards improving sesame productivity dependents on socio-economic, crop types, institutional, and environmental factors. Thus, this study aims at analyzing the impacts of inorganic fertilizer… Show more
