  • Aloe Soap Value Chain Intiative and Its Effect On
    ALOE SOAP VALUE CHAIN INTIATIVE AND ITS EFFECT ON LIVELIHOOD DIVERSIFICATION STRATEGY: THE CASE OF PASTORALISTS AND AGRO-PASTORALISTS OF BORANA, SOUTHERN ETHIOPIA Teshome Dega Dirbaba1 Abstract This study aimed at assessing the effect of ‘ Aloe soap value chain initiative ’ on pastoralists and agro-pastoralists in supplementing their livelihood diversification strategy to overcome impacts of recurrent shocks in the Didayabello, Fulduwa and Dambala Badana Pastoral Associations (PA) in Yabello, Arero and Dire districts, respectively, of Borana Zone. Wild Aloe plant is one of the abundant plant species found in the area and most neglected/underutilized as means of livelihoods except for few traditional medicines and ritual purposes. The research employed qualitative and quantitative research methods using both primary and secondary. Purposive data sampling method was used by which three sample PA administrations with potential aloe soap processing sub-centers were selected for data collection. A total of 120 sample households (60 participants and 60 nonparticipants) were selected by using probability proportional to size for the survey. Data analysis was made by descriptive statistics and econometrics using propensity score matching method. The study, therefore, had evaluated the effect of aloe soap value chain initiatives interventions in the target PAs. It has used cross-sectional survey data of 2012-2013 to see the effect of the intervention in supplementing the participants livelihood diversification strategy. The intervention has resulted in an increased amount of income to participants earning an average total income of Birr 2688.70 per monthfrom the aloe soap production. Besides being a productive plant species with best economic value, the Aloe plant species are found to be environmental friendly, drought tolerant and best for soil and water conservation, in addition to its magnificent medicinal uses.

Department of Biology, Faculty of Natural and Computational Sciences, Bule Hora University, Ethiopia OPEN ACCESS Keywords Abstract • Aloes This review work tries to address on ethno botanical knowledge of Aloe plants • Importance in Ethiopia. There are 46 species of Aloe in Ethiopia in which about 66% of these • Diversity Aloe species are endemic to the country. They are distributed in all floristic regions. Aloes are very important source of traditional medicine in Ethiopian communities to treat different ailments. In addition Aloes are used in soap production, jute sacks production, anti-microbial activities in cotton fabric, as thickening agent, degraded land rehabilitation and source of food for animals. Although there have been some attempts to conduct researches on Ethiopian Aloe species, the available information especially on commercial use, industrial use, propagation, germination and farming are insignificant and overlooked. As their distribution indicate Aloes are important component of Ethiopian dry-land ecosystem including pastoralist and agro-pastoralist area in which the amount of rain is low. In this area introducing Aloe farm system could be better alternative of poverty reduction and income generation.

One of the major achievements of the Flora is having a complete account of all the Mono­ cotyledons. These are found in Volumes 6 (1997 – all monocots except the grasses) and 7 (1995 – the grasses) of the Flora. One of the main aims of publishing the Flora of Ethiopia and Eritrea was to stimulate further research in the region. This challenge was taken by the authors (with important input also from Odd E. Stabbetorp) in 2003 when the first edition of ‘Flowers of Ethiopia and Eritrea: Aloes and other Lilies’ was published (a book now out of print). The project was supported through the NUFU (Norwegian Council for Higher Education’s Programme for Development Research and Education) funded Project of the University of Oslo, Department of Biology, and Addis Ababa University, National Herbarium in the Biology Department. What you have at hand is a second updated version of ‘Flowers of Ethiopia and Eritrea: Aloes and other Lilies’.

Smith SOUTH AFRICAN national biodiversity institute SANBI Pretoria 2011 S T R E L I T Z I A This series has replaced Memoirs of the Botanical Survey of South Africa and Annals of the Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens which SANBI inherited from its predecessor organisations. The plant genus Strelitzia occurs naturally in the eastern parts of southern Africa. It comprises three arborescent species, known as wild bananas, and two acaulescent species, known as crane flowers or bird-of-paradise flowers. The logo of the South African National Biodiversity Institute is based on the striking inflorescence of Strelitzia reginae, a native of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal that has become a garden favourite worldwide. It symbol- ises the commitment of the Institute to champion the exploration, conservation, sustainable use, appreciation and enjoyment of South Africa’s exceptionally rich biodiversity for all people.
