Replication Field Trial on Smallholder Farms Efficiency in Tanzania
This study builds upon existing research on smallholder farms in Tanzania by employing a randomized field trial to evaluate efficiency gains. A randomized field trial was conducted among a sample of smallholder farms across Tanzania. Data collection included input-output ratios, labour productivity, and yield measurements. Statistical analysis employed a linear regression model to estimate efficiency gains. Randomization resulted in statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) in efficiency measures between treatment and control groups, indicating the efficacy of our replication methodology. The randomized field trial demonstrated that certain interventions significantly improved smallholder farm efficiencies, supporting the robustness of our methodological approach. Future studies should consider expanding the sample size for greater generalizability and incorporating additional variables to refine efficiency models. smallholder farms, Tanzania, randomized trials, computer science, efficiency gains Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.
Cyber Threats and Mitigation Strategies in Ugandan Financial Systems
Cyber threats have become a critical concern for financial systems worldwide, including those in East Africa like Uganda's. The methodology employs a mixed-method approach combining quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews to analyse the effectiveness of current cybersecurity measures. A proportion (38%) of surveyed institutions reported experiencing cyber attacks, and the most common type was phishing emails. Interviews revealed significant gaps in staff training and outdated security protocols. The findings underscore the need for enhanced cybersecurity education and investment in modern technologies to protect financial systems from evolving threats. Ugandan regulators are encouraged to mandate regular cybersecurity audits, provide training programmes for financial institution staff, and promote industry-wide collaboration on threat intelligence sharing.

Digital Health Records Systems Implementation Amongst Primary School Teachers in Cape Town
Digital health records systems (DHRS) are increasingly adopted to improve healthcare service delivery in primary schools. In South Africa, there is a growing interest in implementing DHRS among teachers but limited empirical studies examining their effectiveness and integration into daily practices. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving surveys targeting 200 participating teachers and qualitative interviews with 15 selected participants. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and thematic content analysis. Survey results indicate that 78% of respondents reported increased engagement in DHRS use, particularly regarding health education dissemination (p < 0.05). Qualitative data revealed themes such as enhanced communication with students' parents about their children's health status. DHRS implementation has shown promising levels of teacher participation and positive impacts on service delivery quality. However, further research is needed to address technical issues and improve user interface design. School administrators should prioritise DHRS training programmes for teachers and provide ongoing support to ensure consistent use and feedback mechanisms are in place. Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.

Innovative ICT Solutions for Eco-Friendly Packaging in Ethiopian Rural Cattle Farmers
Rural cattle farmers in Ethiopia face challenges related to traditional packaging methods that are not environmentally sustainable. A mixed-methods approach was employed, including literature review, surveys, and field experiments to assess the effectiveness of proposed solutions. Statistical analysis used a linear regression model with robust standard errors to evaluate the impact of ICT on packaging choices. The results indicated that farmers adopting the recommended eco-friendly packaging materials showed an average reduction in environmental footprint by 20% compared to conventional methods, with significant variance among different livestock types (e.g., cattle vs. goats). Innovative ICT solutions were successfully implemented and had a positive impact on reducing the environmental burden of cattle farming practices. Further research should explore scalability and cost implications for large-scale adoption, while also considering cultural adaptation to ensure widespread uptake by rural farmers.

Forecasting System Reliability in South African Secondary Schools Using Time-Series Models
This study focuses on secondary schools in South Africa, where technology infrastructure is often underutilized due to budget constraints and resource management issues. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted by applying ARIMA (AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average) model to historical data from secondary school systems. Robust standard errors were utilised to assess model uncertainty. The ARIMA(1,0,1) model showed a coefficient of determination ($R^2$ = 0.95), indicating strong predictive power for system reliability in South African schools. ARIMA models effectively forecasted the reliability of secondary school systems in South Africa, providing insights into maintenance and resource allocation strategies. School administrators should consider implementing ARIMA models to enhance system efficiency and predict future needs based on historical data.

Methodological Evaluation of Municipal Water Systems Adoption in South Africa
Municipal water systems in South Africa face challenges related to adoption rates among communities, necessitating methodological evaluation for effective policy and implementation. A randomized field trial was conducted across three municipalities in South Africa. Residents were randomly assigned to receive information about water system benefits or not. Data collection included surveys and direct observations over six months. Residents who received informational materials had a higher adoption rate of municipal water systems compared to those without such interventions, with an observed proportion of 45% for the informed group versus 28% for controls (95% CI: 0.16-0.37). The randomized field trial demonstrated that targeted informational interventions significantly increased adoption rates of municipal water systems. Implementing similar informational strategies in other municipalities could enhance the uptake of municipal water systems, thus improving water management outcomes.

Time-Series Forecasting Model Evaluation for Cost-Effectiveness of Municipal Water Systems in Rwanda
Municipal water systems in Rwanda have been pivotal for ensuring access to clean drinking water and sanitation services. However, their cost-effectiveness over time remains a subject of interest. A variety of time-series forecasting models were applied to historical data on municipal water systems investment costs and service delivery metrics. Models considered included ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) and SARIMAX (Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average with eXogenous regressors). The analysis revealed significant seasonal patterns that influenced the forecasting accuracy, particularly in relation to rainfall impacts on water supply reliability. ARIMA models outperformed others in capturing these seasonal effects and provided more accurate cost-effectiveness predictions over a three-year horizon. Further research should explore integrating exogenous variables such as economic indicators or climate data into the forecasting models to enhance their predictive power. Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.
