Abstract

This study analyzed the factors influencing milk productivity of smallholder dairy buffalo farmers in South Luzon, Philippines. We used a cross-sectional data collected from 61 dairy buffalo farmers. This is the first local study to apply a Bayesian approach. The empirical results revealed that among the socio-economic, farm, and technology characteristics investigated, the household size have a positive effect, the number of lactating dairy buffalo negative effect, and the technology adoption of data recording a positive effect on milk productivity of dairy buffalo farmers rendering these factors significant in the analysis of productivity.

Bayesian approach milk productivity dairy buffalo production smallholder farmers.
