190420 Oromia Region Agric Sector Dashboard ETHIOPIA: AGRICULTURE SECTOR HRP OROMIA REGION MONTHLY DASHBOARD - April 2019 The devastating impact on agriculture following consecutive years of drought in Ethiopia is undisputed. While forecasts for 2019 indicate a probability of normal to above normal rain in most parts of Ethiopia, in east, south and southeastern regions, the upcoming rainy season (March to June) is forecast- KEY FIGURES ed to be average or below average. In areas where normal to above normal rains are expected, recovery will not be spontaneous, as previous OVERVIEW HOUSEHOLDS REACHED drought-affected households are likely to require sustained humanitarian assistance as a result of exhausted coping mechanisms. HOUSEHOLDS IN NEED Humanitarian assistance for IDPs and IDP returnees is largely dependent on IDPs’ access to land and the livelihood assets they have been able to 1.15 million maintain during displacement. Emergency feed and animal health interventions are needed to reduce the burden on the resources of the host 2,029 0.4% communities and prevent the spread of diseases, especially for animals displaced across regional borders. Where appropriate, land will be availed and crop seeds, farming tools, and training will be provided to support IDP and returning households to improve their food security and reduce the burden HOUSEHOLDS TARGETED on host Communities. 658,428 IDP HOUSEHOLDS TARGETED 749 1% Horo N_Shewa 64,195 Guduru Chinaksen Guto W_Wellega Gida Meta Sasiga Finfine Doba Gursum AGRICULTURE LIVESTOCK E_Wellega Mieso Crop Seeds &Tools W_Shewa Special Girawa Kelem Diga W_Harerge Dale Fentale Animal health Crop seeds 1,029 138,774 1,000 440,345 Wellega Sadi E_Harerge SW_Shewa Boset Babile Forage Seeds Anfilo Buno Daro Destocking 63,468 Lebu Bedele Meyu Ilubabor Gololcha Arsi Hawi Vegetable Seeds Animal Feed E_Shewa Gudina 54,629 Jimma Arsi Kersa Lege Kersa Hida Shebe Munessa IDPS RESPONSE Sambo RESILIENCE Shalla Seweyna Livestock H &F Gedeb 200 49,907 Asasa W_ Arsi Crop seeds 549 26,798 Bale Dawe Rayitu LEGEND 0 10000 20000 30000 40000 50000 60000 Number of HHs targeted Kachen through Livestock support Harena Achieved Not Achieved Abaya Buluk Bore Livestock 30 001 - 335 000 Girja Mena Gura (Harenfema) Damole 15 001 - 30 000 Gelana Uraga Adola (as of 28 February 2019) 10 001 - 15 000 Hambela FUNDING: 2019 ETHIOPIA AGRICULTURE SECTOR 5 001 - 10 000 Wamena Wadera Crop Kercha Meda 1 000 - 5 000 Bule FUNDED Welabu Less than 1 000 Hora Goro Dola W_Guji Melka 0.18million Soda 23.9 million 0.8% Number of HHs targeted Guji FUNDED (USD) with emergency seed Borena Liben REQUESTED (USD) 9 001 - 12 900 Arero DONOR CONTRIBUTIONS ($) FUNDING ($) REQUIRED BY ACTIVITY 5 001 - 9 000 2 001 - 5 000 Animal Feed 501 - 2000 16.7m Dehas OFDA 0.18m 1 - 500 No data Moyale Destocking 2.7m Beneficiaries by Zone IDP Response 1.96m 335,000 Seeds Livestock Animal Health 1.53m Emer.

  • Prioritization of Shelter/NFI Needs
    Prioritization of Shelter/NFI needs Date: 31st May 2018 Shelter and NFI Needs As of 18 May 2018, the overall number of displaced people is 345,000 households. This figure is based on DTM round 10, partner’s assessments, government requests, as well as the total of HH supported since July 2017. The S/NFI updated its prioritisation in early May and SNFI Cluster partners agreed on several criteria to guide prioritisation which include: - 1) type of emergency, 2) duration of displacement, and 3) sub-standard shelter conditions including IDPS hosted in collective centres and open-air sites and 4) % of vulnerable HH at IDP sites. Thresholds for the criteria were also agreed and in the subsequent analysis the cluster identified 193 IDP hosting woredas mostly in Oromia and Somali regions, as well as Tigray, Gambella and Addis Ababa municipality. A total of 261,830 HH are in need of urgent shelter and NFI assistance. At present the Cluster has a total of 57,000 kits in stocks and pipeline. The Cluster requires urgent funding to address the needs of 204,830 HHs that are living in desperate displacement conditions across the country. This caseload is predicted to increase as the flooding continues in the coming months. Shelter and NFI Priority Activities In terms of priority activities, the SNFI Cluster is in need of ES/NFI support for 140,259 HH displaced mainly due to flood and conflict under Pillar 2, primarily in Oromia and Somali Regions. In addition, the Shelter and NFI Cluster requires immediate funding for recovery activities to support 14,000 HH (8,000 rebuild and 6,000 repair) with transitional shelter support and shelter repair activities under Pillar 3.

Box, 395, Nekempt, Ethiopia 2Gardega-Jarte, Agricultural Office, P.O. Box, Shambu, Ethiopia Abstract: The aim of the study was to estimate technical efficiency of smallholder farmers in maize production in case of Jardega Jarte districts with specific objectives to estimate the level of technical efficiency and to identify factors affecting technical efficiency in the study area. The study used cross-sectional data and the data were collected from sample representative respondents of 168 randomly selected farm households. Cobb-Douglas production function and the Stochastic Frontier Model were used to identify factors influencing productivity and efficiency. The hypotheses tests confirm that, the adequacy of Cobb-Douglas the appropriateness of using SFA the joint statistical significance of inefficiency effects; the appropriateness of using Half- normal and Exponential distribution for one sided error; and nature of the stochastic production function. The maximum likelihood parameter estimates showed that all input variables have positive and significant effect on production. The estimated Cob Douglas production function revealed that all inputs labor in hour, maize cultivated land, Dap, Urea, Seed, oxen have positive

  • The Quest for Resolution of Guji-Gedeo Conflicts in Southern Ethiopia: a Review of Mechanisms Employed, Actors and Their Effectiveness
    The Quest for Resolution of Guji-Gedeo Conflicts in Southern Ethiopia: A Review of Mechanisms Employed, Actors and Their Effectiveness Girum Kinfemichael1 Abstract This article assesses the quest for resolution of Guji-Gedeo conflicts, the federal device as a means of managing conflict employed and their effectiveness. Methodologically, the study is mainly based on qualitative approach with an opinion and descriptive surveys to reveal the existing problems. It emerges from the study that the different structures, processes and mechanisms, which are employed at various levels of administrative hierarchies of governments for managing the conflicts, remain ad-hoc, not well-coordinated and, above all, their actions are mainly reactive. The study draws an argumentative conclusion that the Federal Government and authorities of the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples’ Region (SNNPR) and Oromiya Regional State need to boost their close cooperation, engagement in early warning and conflict management endeavors in addressing the conflict as the two communities are still at loggerheads over the issue of defining the contested boundary claims. It is also useful to extend the scope of such cooperation and engagement to the level of local governments in both Regional States. Along with these efforts, it would be better if authorities at various levels revitalize and empower traditional conflict resolution institutions to run parallel with ‘modern’ government structures to respond to the conflicts promptly. It is thus prudent to use the advantage of federalism as flexible and innovative system of governance to manage the conflict constructively. Keywords: Boundary conflicts, ethnicity, ethnic federation, federal restructuring, Guji-Gedeo conflicts, indigenous institutions. 1 Lecturer, Department of Federalism and Local Government Studies, Institute of Federalism and Legal Studies, Ethiopian Civil Service University.
