Box: 260, Ethiopia 2,3School of Agricultural Economics and Agribusiness Haramaya University, Ethiopia; P.O. Box:138. Ethiopia has a broad genetic diversity among its coffee varieties. Coffee is one of the cash crop which is highly marketed through world next to petroleum. It has a great contribution in earning foreign currency and it is an income source for around 20 % Ethiopian population either directly or indirectly. Linking small producers to markets are widely recognized as a valuable development route and market outlets choice is one of the most important farm household decisions to sell their produce and has a great impact on household income. Even if the study area has great potential of coffee production, the farmers faced the marketing problem particularly in choice of appropriate coffee market outlets. This study was therefore carried out to analyze determinants of coffee producers’ market outlet choice decisions in Gewata district. Purposive and two stage random sampling technique was used and data was collected from 121 coffee producers. Multivariate probit model (MVP) was used to analyze factors influencing the choice of coffee market outlets choice by coffee producers. The multivariate probit model results indicated that quantity of coffee sold, education level, frequency of extension contacts, household size, years of farming experience, distance to nearest market, off/non-farm income, land under coffee and transport access significantly influenced coffee producers’ choice of market outlet. Therefore, strengthening farmers coffee cooperative and enhancing the financial capacity of cooperative with functional collection center, improving accessibility of transport services and developing infrastructure, improving farmers’ knowledge through adult education as well as their experience sharing with other coffee producing farmers, improving productivity through strengthening supportive institutions (extension service provider).

Accepted 18 April, 2017 The study was conducted at Southern Nation Nationalities and Peoples Regional state, Kaffa administrative Zone of Chena and Gesha woredas on phenotypic characterization and its production system of Bonga cattle. Discussions with key informants, field study on morphological characteristics, survey with structured questionnaires, linear body measurements and secondary data were sources of data. Totally 138 households were selected to interview by using structured questionnaires and Morphological measurements were collected from 372 female and 76 male totally 448 mature cattle used randomly. The production system in the study area was mixed crop-livestock production system. Bonga bull reach for drought power was at the age of 3.53 ± 0.66 year. Analyzed data showed that the average age at first mating for male was 3.55 ± 0.07 and for female 3.94 ± 0.09. The overall mean age at first calving (AFC) of Bonga breeding female was 4.96 ± 0.09 years. The average reproductive lifespan of Bonga breeding male and female was 4.51± 0.16 and 16.05 ± 0.42 years respectively. Large body size was the first ranked trait for both male and female to select breeding male and female.

The study was conducted at Gesha and Sayilem districts of the Kaffa Zone with the objective of identifying the floristic compositions, plant community types, and associated environmental factors of the forest. Stratified random sampling technique was used. A total of 90 plots were used to collect vegetation data. The plant community classification was performed using agglomerative Hierarchical cluster analysis Ward’s linkage method was applied in R-software. Species diversity and evenness were evaluated using the Shannon diversity and evenness indices respectively. The study revealed that the study area composed of 300 species that belong to 239 genera in 96 families. Asteraceae was the most abundant family followed by Fabaceae, Acanthaceae, Poaceae, Rubiaceae, and Euphorbiaceae accounting 37%, 15%, 14%, 13%, 12%, and 9% respectively. Five plant community types were identified and these were Ilex mitis-Syzygium guineense, Pouteria adolfi-friedericii-Schefflera abyssinica, Millettia ferruginea-Sapium ellipticum, Arundinaria alpina and Schefflera volkensii-Masea-lanceolata community types.

Box: 254, Mizan-aman, Ethiopia Abstract: Ticks and tick borne disease cause considerable losses to the livestock economy. A cross-sectional study design was implemented from April 2016 to August 2016 to determine the distribution, estimate the prevalence of tick infestation and assess associated effects in cattle in Saylem, Gesha and Masha districts. The study population consists of local zebu breeds cattle with different sex, age and body condition. The collected ticks were identified using stereomicroscope and classified in to different species level. From 567 total bovine population overall prevalence of tick in three districts was 502 (88.54%) with Saylem 183 (91.50%), Gesha 149 (78.84%) and Masha 170 (95.51%). Two highly prevalent species of tick in the whole districts was Rhipicephalus (formerly Boophilus) decoloratus 255 (30.61%) and Amblyomma cohaerens 253 (30.37%) while the lowest one was Haemaphysalis parmata 13(1.56%). The highest prevalent tick species recorded in all PAs was R. (B.) decoloratus except A. cohaerens in Dino 42 (7.41%) and Kico 41 (7.23%). The result showed that the total highest infestation rate was mixed infestation 417 (83.06%) while lowest was single infestation 85 (16.93%) in tick positive animals. Research result indicated that high tick prevalence in the areas therefore, more attention is needed to control and minimize its distribution.
