Regional monitoring networks have been established in Ethiopia to track environmental changes and resource management practices. A comparative study employing multilevel regression models was conducted. The method accounts for both regional and local variations to accurately measure adoption rates. The multilevel regression model revealed that the probability of adopting sustainable water management practices varied significantly across regions, with a median probability of 0. 65 (95% CI: 0. 58-0. 72). Multilevel regression analysis provided nuanced insights into regional differences in adoption rates and highlighted areas needing targeted intervention. Future studies should consider incorporating additional variables to refine the model, such as socioeconomic factors and institutional support levels. Model estimation used =argmin_ᵢ (yᵢ, f_ (xᵢ) ) +₂², with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.
