Revisitant les facteurs affectant l’utilisation des Tics sur l’information relative aux intrants agricoles par les paysans dans les pays en voie de développement

Abstract

RESUMÉMalgré une exposition des paysans aux Tics sur l'information de production agricole, la contribution de ceux-ci dans ce domaine n'est encore satisfaisante. Par conséquent, une étude a été menée pour informer notre audience sur les facteurs affectant l'utilisation de ces Tics par une révision des Tics et les articles publiés sur ces Tics en utilisant la Théorie Ancrée. Les facteurs avantage relatif, compatibilité, simplicité, l'influence sociale, observabilité, alphabétisation, savoir-faire Tics et qualité de l'information affectent positivement l'utilisation de ces Tics tandis que et le cout excessif des Tics affectent négativement leurs utilisations. Mots-clés: Tics, agriculture, intrants agricoles, paysans, accès, utilisation ABSTRACTDespite farmers' exposition to ICTs on agricultural input information, their contribution to the access and use of agricultural input information is far from expectation. This study therefore, reviewed these ICTs in developing countries to extract the factors that affect ICTs' adoption by small-scale famers using the Grounded Theory. The factors Relative Advantage, Compatibility, Simplicity, Social Influence, Observability, Literacy, ICTs' Skills were identified as affecting positively ICTs' use while the High Cost was identified as negatively affecting these ICTs.

Agricultural extension officers' adoption of ICT‐based extension services: A critical realist approach in Mali

“…Some scholars (Bunt, 2018;Lee, 2016) have proposed the grounded theory to conduct qualitative (including case study) studies with a critical realist philosophical perspective. As revealed by recent literature (Birks et al, 2013;Kante et al, 2017aKante et al, , 2017b, the grounded theory method is a process that allows researchers to create their theory from data. This means that the grounded theory relates to two things in the approach.…”

“…While translation can be a source of bias (for qualitative studies) (Temple, 2006), rigorous translation can produce valid data (Al‐Amer et al, 2015). We applied the methods in the literature (Al‐Amer et al, 2015; Kante et al, 2017a, 2017b; Vinay & Darbelnet, 1995) to perform the translation. This rigorous translation must first include only one translator, as per Twinn (1997), cited in Al‐Amer et al (2015).…”
