Historical Survey of Limmu Genet Town from Its Foundation up to Present
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 6, ISSUE 07, JULY 2017 ISSN 2277-8616 Historical Survey Of Limmu Genet Town From Its Foundation Up To Present Dagm Alemayehu Tegegn Abstract: The process of modern urbanization in Ethiopia began to take shape since the later part of the nineteenth century. The territorial expansion of emperor Menelik (r. 1889 –1913), political stability and effective centralization and bureaucratization of government brought relative acceleration of the pace of urbanization in Ethiopia; the improvement of the system of transportation and communication are identified as factors that contributed to this new phase of urban development. Central government expansion to the south led to the appearance of garrison centers which gradually developed to small- sized urban center or Katama. The garrison were established either on already existing settlements or on fresh sites and also physically they were situated on hill tops. Consequently, Limmu Genet town was founded on the former Limmu Ennarya state‘s territory as a result of the territorial expansion of the central government and system of administration. Although the history of the town and its people trace many year back to the present, no historical study has been conducted on. Therefore the aim of this study is to explore the history of Limmu Genet town from its foundation up to present. Keywords: Limmu Ennary, Limmu Genet, Urbanization, Development ———————————————————— 1. Historical Background of the Study Area its production. The production and marketing of forest coffee spread the fame and prestige of Limmu Enarya ( The early history of Limmu Oromo Mohammeed Hassen, 1994). The name Limmu Ennarya is The history of Limmu Genet can be traced back to the rise derived from a combination of the name of the medieval of the Limmu Oromo clans, which became kingdoms or state of Ennarya and the Oromo clan name who settled in states along the Gibe river basin. -

The objective of the experiment was to assess the variability among the accessions using quantitative traits. Data for about eight quantitative traits were recorded only once in experimental period, while the yield data were recorded for six consecutive cropping seasons. Cluster, genetic divergence, and principal component analysis were used to assess the variability among the genotypes. The results revealed that average linkage cluster analysis for nine traits grouped the germplasm accessions in to three clusters. The number of accessions per cluster ranged from three in cluster III to 25 in cluster II. The clustering pattern of the coffee accessions revealed that the prevalence of moderate genetic diversity in Limmu coffee for the characters studied. -

Box 52 Adigrat, Ethiopia. e-mail: [email protected] (corresponding author) 2College of Dryland Agriculture, Samara University, Ethiopia e-mail: [email protected] 3College of Agriculture and Environmental Science, Mekelle University, Ethiopia e-mail: [email protected] Manuscript received August 22, 2018; revised: September 25, 2018; accepted: November 28, 2018 Abstract. The contribution of beekeeping is perhaps one of the most important income-generating activities for millions of smallholder farmers in Ethiopia. This study was intended to assess beekeeping practices and potential in three districts of Afar Region, northern Ethiopia. Primary data were collected from 120 respondents proportionally selected from each district. Semi-structured questionnaire were employed to collect the primary data. Focus-group discussion was also used to support interpretation of the interview data. Basically, descriptive statistics were used to analyse the data. All respondents use traditional honey production system despite some recent trials. The mean live colony ownership of the sample beekeepers is 10.08 colonies per household, with a maximum ownership of 62 colonies. The study showed that the annual honey production per beehive varies from 4 to 17 kg, with a mean production of 9.66 kg. The majority of the respondents harvest two times per year, while 18%, 19%, and 14.2% of the respondents harvest three, four, and five times per year respectively. -
Integration of Variable Renewable Energy in The
INTEGRATION OF VARIABLE RENEWABLE ENERGY IN THE NATIONAL ELECTRIC SYSTEM OF ETHIOPIA ABSTRACT FEBRUARY 2019 The study frame has been crafted and developed in close coordination with the Ethiopian Electric Power (EEP), coordinated by RES4Africa in 2018 in partnership with Enel Foundation and with the technical support of CESI. Acknowlegments Supervisor: Luca Marena, RES4Africa Working group members: Ulderico Bagalini, Bruno Cova, Andrea Prudenzi, CESI – Leonhard Braun, Daniele Paladini, RES4AFRICA – Tesfaye Batu, Daniel Mulatu, Bizuayehu Tesfaye, Mulat Azene, Melaku Yigzaw, Estifanos Gebru, Ethiopian Electric Power – Mirko Armiento, Giuseppe Montesano, Enel Foundation Special thanks to Carlo Papa (Enel Foundation) for supporting the study. Executive Summary Ethiopia is endowed with outstanding and diversified renewable energy resources, namely hydro, wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass. For many decades, the development of the electricity sector was based on the exploitation of huge hydro resources that made the electric power system dependent on water and particularly exposed to the climate change. The non-hydro renewable sources can be efficiently exploited in the power sector to improve energy diversification and support both short- and long-term power system resilience, in order to cope with current and future water challenges related to climate change and to support the national strategy to become a world class exporter of large amounts of clean and cheap renewable energies. However, the deployment of RES generation, especially if variable as in the case of PV and wind, shall be accurately designed to ensure the compliance with reliability standards and security constraints. The following study is focused on the integration of variable renewables into the Ethiopian electrical grid considering the development scenario until 2030. -
