Box, 132, Samara, Ethiopia. 1*Email: [email protected] Article Received: 11 December 2019 Article Accepted: 07 February 2020 Article Published: 17 March 2020 ABSTRACT A cross sectional study was carried out from January to July 2014 GC in an attempt to assess and prioritize major camel diseases and identify risk factors in the selected areas of Afar region. Camel owners’ interview and retrospective data analysis were the study methods employed. Relevant collected data were organized, filtered and fed into Microsoft Excel sheet and further analyzed using SPSS statistical tools at P< 0.05. Descriptive statistics was carried to determine frequencies of camel diseases camel. Based on descriptive statistics, the study identified and prioritized 16 camel diseases. Chi-Square analysis was computed to measure the degree of association between disease occurrence and risk factors (age, sex, study area and season). Binomial and multinomial logistic regression analyzes were computed at P<0.05 to measure the significance of associated risk factors on disease occurrence. Statistically significant variations (P<0.05) were observed for sex, seasons, age, and study sites on the occurrence of disease with exception kebeles (P>0.05). Though the study duly has revealed numerous diseases of the camel, the actual existence (laboratory based confirmation) and epidemiology of each disease still demands further investigative studies. -

The Levels of Utilization of Reproductive, Maternal and Neonatal Health Services Among Women from Pastoralist Communities in Afar, Ethiopia: Across-Sectional Survey
The Levels of utilization of reproductive, maternal and neonatal health services among women from pastoralist communities in Afar, Ethiopia: across-sectional survey Mussie Alemayehu1, Araya Abrha Medhanyie1, Kibrom Berhanu2, Yemane Gebremariam1, Tesfay Hailu1, Selemawit Asfaw Beyene1, Mohammed Ahmed2, Afework Mulugeta1 Abstract Background: Good-quality reproductive, maternal and neonatal health services, as well as their uptake, are key to preventing complications during pregnancy, in childbirth, and after a child is born. However, the uptake of reproductive, maternal and neonatal health services in the Afar region of Ethiopia is low. Objective: The aim of this study to assess the extent to which reproductive, maternal and neonatal services are used by Afar women in pastoralist communities in Ethiopia, and to examine the reasons for the low uptake of these services. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 1,978 mothers with children up to the age of 24 months. Multistage sampling was employed to recruit the study participants. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the effect of independent predictors on the utilization of reproductive, maternal and neonatal health services. Results: The number of women who had four or more antenatal care visits, who had institutional deliveries, who had postnatal visits within seven days of giving birth, and who currently use family planning was 443(22.4%), 322(16.7%), 61(3.1%) and 107(5.4%), respectively. About one third of the women, 686 (34.7%),made good use of reproductive, maternal and neonatal health services. The incidence of using reproductive, maternal and neonatal health services was 2.8 times (AOR = 2.8; 95%CI: 2.0, 3.9) higher among educated women. -

ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update March 2011 Food Insecurity
ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update March 2011 1 Food insecurity in southern Ethiopia worsening; poor rains are anticipated • Following the poor October to December 2010 rains, southern Figure 1. Estimated food security outcomes, March and southeastern pastoral and agropastoral parts of the 2011 country face critical shortages of water and pasture. The anticipated below normal April to June 2011 rains are likely to further limit the availability of pastoral resources leading to increased humanitarian assistance needs in these areas. • Inadequate rains affected land preparation and planting of crops in the main belg producing areas of Amhara, Oromia, and SNNP Regions. The 2011 February to May rains have begun late and been erratically distributed. The rains have also affected the performance of sweet potatoes in the root crop dependent zones of SNNPR. Food insecurity among the poor and very poor households in these zones will be an emerging concern from April onwards. Source: FEWS NET and WFP • Despite an average to above‐average 2010 main season Figure 2. Estimated food security outcomes, April harvest, staple cereal prices have risen atypically over recent to June 2011 months. Price increases in the southern and southeastern pastoral and agropastoral areas are especially large. The late onset of the belg/gu/genna (February to May) rains and increased fuel prices are likely to add additional upward pressure on food prices. Updated food security outlook through June 2011 The 2010 meher harvest (October to January), stabilized food security, and thus many households in the eastern meher producing areas of eastern Tigray and Amhara, parts of the Rift Valley, and East and West Hararghe zones of Oromia regions, which are typical at‐risk areas, remain moderately food secure. -
ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update November 2011
ETHIOPIA Food Security Outlook Update November 2011 Good rains likely to stabilize food security in the south The October to December Deyr rains are performing well Figure 1. Most-likely food security outcomes (October in most parts of the southern and southeastern pastoral to December 2011) and agropastoral areas, easing the shortage of pastoral resources. This, coupled with ongoing humanitarian assistance, will continue to stabilize food security among poor and very poor households in these areas. Nonetheless, about 4 million people will continue to require humanitarian assistance through the end of 2011 across the country. Prices of staple foods have generally started declining following the fresh Meher harvest, although they remain higher than the five‐year average. This will continue to constrain access to food over the coming months among the rural and urban poor who heavily depend on purchase to fulfill their minimum food requirements. For more information on FEWS NET’s Food Insecurity Severity Scale, During the January to March 2012 period, Crisis level food please see: www.fews.net/FoodInsecurityScale insecurity will extend to the dominantly Belg producing Source: FEWS NET Ethiopia and WFP zones in the northeastern highlands as well as into some marginal Meher cropping areas due to the below normal Figure 2. Most‐likely food security outcomes (January to 2011 harvests. Similarly, as the long dry season March 2012) (December to March) progresses, deterioration in food security is likely in some southern pastoral and agropastoral woredas which were severely affected by the recent drought. Updated food security outlook through March 2012 Food security in most parts of the country has stabilized as a result of improved market supply and declining prices following the Meher harvest, ongoing humanitarian assistance, and the current good Deyr/Hageya rains in the southern and southeast pastoral and agropastoral. -
