Abstract
This study attempts to expand the range of explanatory variables used in adoption studies. The results suggest that awareness of soil erosion problems and increases in long‐term profit are significant indicators of the probability of adopting silt traps and contour ploughing as methods of soil conservation. Factors such as age, security of land tenure, informal communication, size of land holding and difficulty of adopting a particular technology, do not appear to be significant determinants of the adoption of soil conservation measures.
