Historically, agricultural credit programs have been used as a policy instrument to improve productivity and livelihoods of smallholder farmers. The effectiveness such has widely deliberated with an opaque unanimity being reached since yield is stochastic. Therefore, this study examines the impact provided by Government Kenya intervention boost coffee productivity. Over years, there little – if any in-depth analysis that dedicated establishing on This surveyed 174 farmers (participants non-participants in program) Kiambu County between 2015 2019. paper espouses DEA Malmquist index estimate efficiency for participating non-participating program. empirical results disclose had highest geomean change (152%), (40.5%), technical (53.2%) scale (40.5%).

Efficiently utilizing the energy resources in agriculture sector to produce more agricultural output with minimum environmental degradation is a shared global challenge. The Chinese government has introduced various policies aimed at enhancing efficiency (EE) and total factor productivity (TFEP) while addressing regional technological disparities sector. This study utilized DEA Super-SBM, Meta frontier Analysis, Malmquist-Luenberger index assess efficiency, changes productivity, technology gap ratio (TGR) across 30 provinces mainland China three distinct regions during period from 2000 2020. findings reveal that average EE China's 0.8492, indicating that, on average, there 15.08 % potential for improvement growth within Qinghai (1.5828), Shanghai (1.3716), Hainan (1.3582) are found be top 3 performers highest levels. Eastern region demonstrates high excellence EE, value of 1.0532. TGR Zhejiang indicates superior production utilize efficiently. Except Zhejiang, Liaoning, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Guangdong, Ningxia, above 0.96 near 1, China. Technology Gap Ratio eastern central western regions, consistently approaching 1. suggests possess advanced technologies, allowing them optimize resource utilization maximum output.

This study investigated the effects of climate change on agricultural productivity in Nigeria from 2000 to 2023. Data were sourced Central Bank (CBN) Statistical Bulletin and World Climate Change Database. The employed an ex-post facto research design, data analyzed using linear regression with Error Correction Model (ECM). findings revealed that had a negative impact output during examined period. Based these results, concludes detrimental Nigeria’s sector highlight need for immediate adaptive strategies. Key measures such as adoption climate-resilient crop varieties, enhanced irrigation systems, sustainable farming practices are essential building resilience ensuring food security amid current environmental challenges. recommends prioritizing research, development, dissemination varieties engineered drought heat resistance. Additionally, farmers should be supported adopt techniques capable withstanding high humidity associated diseases, including use humidity-tolerant varieties.

Droughts are a major driver of global environmental degradation, threatening lives and causing significant economic losses, with approximately 80% these losses linked to agricultural drought, characterized by soil moisture deficits. Remote sensing technology offers high spatiotemporal resolution data for continuous monitoring drought severity. However, the effectiveness remote indices across different depths remains unclear. This study assessed performance eight widely used indices—Perpendicular Drought Index (PDI), Modified Perpendicular (MPDI), Temperature Condition (TCI), Vegetation (VCI), Health (VHI), Normalized Supply Water (NVSWI), Temperature–Vegetation Dryness (TVDI), Standardized Precipitation–Evapotranspiration (SPEI) at multiple timescales—in five (0–50 cm, 10 cm intervals) nine regions China from 2001 2020. Results reveal that varies significantly depths, general decline in as depth increases. For between 10–40 VCI NVSWI exhibited highest accuracy, while PDI, MPDI, VHI performed optimally Northeast Plain. At 50 depth, however, optical struggled accurately capture conditions. Additionally, TCI TVDI showed notable lag effects, 4-month 5-month delays, respectively, SPEI cumulative effects over 3–6 months. These findings provide critical insights guide selection appropriate monitoring, aiding management decision-making.
