Land fragmentation is a common phenomenon in Ethiopia, particularly in the Central Highlands of Ethiopia and it affects the agricultural production systems. Understanding the private adaptive intention-behavior towards land fragmentation is very crucial for policymakers to plan alternative comprehensive land management tools. Taking the advantage of Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and utility of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), this study aimed to: 1) understand farmers’ perspective and adaptive intention-behavior towards land fragmentation and, 2) test the applicability of TPB on land fragmentation adaptive intention through SEM techniques. The findings indicated that farmers perceived of land fragmentation risks, social pressure and social incentives are 1) the more favorable to perform decision-making to comprehensive land consolidation and modern agricultural mechanization, and 2) the more inspiration to use recommended farm inputs. Therefore, this is the right time for Policymakers to shift from voluntary basis for comprehensive land consolidation in order to improve the agricultural production as well as to achieve sustainable rural development in Ethiopia. The TPB and SEM are useful tools to understand the farmers’ perspectives and adaptive intentions towards land fragmentation. However, further study is required to promote and disseminate the efforts of land consolidation in Ethiopia.
