"Purpose – New agricultural technologies are continuously generated and promoted for adoption by farmers\r\nwith the expectation that they bring about higher benefits than older technologies. Yet, depending on the\r\nperceived benefits, the user of the technology may choose to stop using it. This paper aims to analyze what\r\ndrives farmers to dis-adopt climate smart sorghum varieties in Tanzania.\r\nDesign/methodology/approach – The study uses cross-sectional farm household level data collected in\r\nTanzania from a sample of 767 households. The determinants of dis-adoption are explored using a bivariate\r\nprobit with sample selection model.\r\nFindings – The authors find that while farmers switch between different sorghum varieties, most farmers\r\nactually quit sorghum production. Older farmers and those facing biotic stresses such attacks by birds are\r\nmore likely to dis-adopt sorghum.\r\nPractical implications – These findings suggest that there is scope for improving and sustaining the\r\nadoption of sorghum varieties in Tanzania once extension services are strengthened. The findings also point\r\nto a well-founded theory on the role ofmarkets in enhancing the overall sustainability of food systems.\r\nSocial implications – The study findings have broader implications for understanding the sustainability\r\nof improved technology adoption\r\nOriginality/value – Dis-adoption is also positively associated with the lack of access to markets\r\nunderscoring the role of markets in enhancing the overall sustainability of technology adoption and food\r\nsystems."^^ .
