摘要: Logit and ordered probit analyses were used to identify factors associated with reduced tillage adoption, continuous spring cropping, the number of changes made in response wind erosion. Contrary previous results for water erosion control, simple perception a problem or membership particular socioeconomic category did not significantly explain adoption control practices, but participating targeted educational program did. This program: (a) highlighted threats human health soil productivity, (b) described specific potentially profitable farming practices solving problem.
