2019
Leclair, Mark | Kanyenda, Eluby
The study analyzes how ICT can be integrated into agricultural and rural development projects for solutions at scale. Field intervention research was conducted to test the ICT components of an initiative to scale the uptake of soybean inoculants using interactive radio, text messages, WhatsApp groups, and a call centre. Household and telephone surveys, focus group discussions, key informant interviews and gender analysis help assess the effectiveness of the interventions. Building on the study findings, a gender-responsive ICT4Scale conceptual framework was developed to guide the use of ICTs in scaling initiatives. Farm Radio Trust in collaboration with Farm Radio International implemented the research project.
